Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
About our bath resealing in East Dean
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We work on baths, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are water getting behind the bath or tray and gaps by the taps.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in East Dean and across East Sussex.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

East Dean: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Which areas do you work in?
All of East Sussex, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
How much does bath resealing cost in East Dean?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Typically because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Why it’s worth resealing in East Dean
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Sussex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

The process
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When to call us in East Dean
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Unsealed corners
- Damp near the bath
