Bath resealing in Ticehurst without replacing anything
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. If you’re dealing with black spots in the silicone and gaps in the seal, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- 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.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What we’re called out for in Ticehurst
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Common reasons people in Ticehurst contact us are:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- A messy previous reseal
- Mould you cannot clean out
What your quote should include
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- When it can be used again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Hidden water damage
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ticehurst
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

How we price bath resealing
There’s no area surcharge for Ticehurst. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ticehurst. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Give the seal a regular clean
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
