Bathroom Resealing in Furnace Green
Bath, shower, basin, wet room, worktop and sink resealing for homes and businesses in Furnace Green and across West Sussex. ARBOMaster approved applicators, fully insured, with a one-year guarantee.
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
How we handle bathroom resealing in Furnace Green
A reseal only lasts if the joint is properly prepared. The old sealant is removed to the last smear, then the joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould. New silicone goes on only when the joint is fully dry. If you have failed sealant on the screen profile and lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt, we can put it right.
Even in a smaller place like Furnace Green, bathrooms and kitchens see heavy daily use. Whether it’s a cottage bathroom or a newer en suite, the approach is the same: old sealant or grout cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.
All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in West Sussex.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The size of the job
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Access and height
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What to tell us for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- The type of property
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
If you manage several properties in or around Furnace Green, several properties can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and pictures by email help.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, which is generally around 24 hours. After that, a quick wipe after showering helps keep it clean.
Watch for the early signs: lifting ends, gaps, dark shadows under the bead or a stain downstairs. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.

What else we do in Furnace Green
Bathrooms and kitchens in Furnace Green
Furnace Green is part of Crawley, one of the post-war new towns. Many homes date from the post-war decades, so bathrooms and kitchens may be on their second or third set of sealant. Sealant laid over old sealant never bonds properly, so it all has to come out. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For an older house near a landmark such as St Andrew's Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. For landlords with property near Three Bridges station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

How it works

- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.

Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
