Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Pease Pottage
Before a bath is sealed, it’s filled with water. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the bead isn’t stretched the first time someone gets in. Quick jobs often leave it out, and it makes a real difference. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are a bead that has pulled away from the tiles and leaking joints on a shower screen.
Homes around Pease Pottage range from older cottages to more recent houses. Older homes can move a little with the seasons, which is hard on tired sealant and rigid grout.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

How we quote for bathroom resealing
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Access and height
- The size of the job
- Which sealant suits the joint
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before any work starts.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- If someone has resealed it before
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The problem you’ve noticed

Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.

What else we do in Pease Pottage
The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can carry on as normal. The job usually takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Parking around Pease Pottage is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Related advice
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Common questions in Pease Pottage
I let a flat near Crawley station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is it worth replacing old sealant in an older home in Pease Pottage?
If it hasn’t been replaced for some years, it’s usually worth it. Sealant is a maintenance item: how long it lasts depends on use, cleaning and exposure, and many homes in Pease Pottage may already be on their second or third set.
Can you just seal over the old silicone?
No. It’s a common reason for reseals failing. We cut out all of the old sealant, clean the joint and start again.
Do you guarantee your resealing?
Yes. Our one-year guarantee covers every job, and we are ARBOMaster approved applicators.
Do you cover Pease Pottage?
Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland, and that includes Pease Pottage.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will explain our choice.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
How long before the new sealant can get wet?
The surface skins over fairly quickly, but the bead needs longer to cure right through. Leave it around 24 hours before it gets wet, or follow the cure time we give you.
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchen worktops & upstands
The joint between worktop and wall takes splashes, crumbs and cleaning sprays. We seal them in a colour that suits the worktop.
Shower trays & enclosures
A tray that rocks will split any sealant. We check for movement before we reseal, and tell you if it needs re-bedding first.
What bathroom resealing looks like in Pease Pottage
Pease Pottage is part of Crawley, one of the post-war new towns. With many homes dating from the post-war decades, plenty of bathrooms have been resealed or refitted more than once. Sealant laid over old sealant never bonds properly, so it all has to come out. Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Rented homes near Crawley station change hands often, and fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Why act early in Pease Pottage
Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. Homes in smaller places like Pease Pottage can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What we’re called out for in Pease Pottage
A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Discovery New School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
