Westdene: your questions answered
Will you come out to Westdene?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
I let a flat near Preston Park station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
It takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. You’ll know how long to expect before we start.
Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we’re done.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?
Yes. We reseal worktop upstands, sinks and splashbacks, with a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
After around 24 hours in most cases. You’ll get the exact cure time before we leave.
What information do you need?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Bathroom resealing in Westdene
We fill the bath before sealing it. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the bead is not stretched the first time someone gets in. Quick jobs often leave it out, and it makes a real difference. If you have leaks into the floor or ceiling below and new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting, we can put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & upstands and wet rooms alike.
In a smaller place like Westdene, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, from older cottages to newer builds. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Westdene and across Brighton and Hove.

Different surfaces, different methods
Baths
A bath shifts slightly every time it’s filled, so we fill it with water before sealing. That way the joint is laid with the bath at its heaviest.
Sinks & splashbacks
The edge of an inset sink is a common place for water to get under the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.

From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Why act early in Westdene
Tired sealant isn’t a reason to replace a bath or shower. A new bead often brings the whole room back, provided the bath, tray and tiles are in good order. If we find a deeper problem, you will hear it from us. Around Westdene, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
Why us?
- Colour agreed with you before any work starts
- Colour picked to suit the job

- Fully insured

When to call us in Westdene
Silicone doesn’t last for ever. Daily water, heat and cleaning products take their toll over the years, and how long it lasts comes down to use, cleaning and ventilation.
The problems people generally mention when they call include:
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
Rented homes near Preston Park station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.
Questions to ask before booking
- How much experience the applicator has
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Are they insured?
- The length of the guarantee
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Bathroom resealing around Westdene
Westdene is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Westdene has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
If you look after a building such as Westdene Primary 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. Homes close to Church of the Ascension include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

What happens on the day
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. A visit to Westdene is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
