Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Bath resealing in Appledore Heath, done in place
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths, and people most frequently call us about gaps by the taps and water getting behind the bath or tray.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Appledore Heath and across Kent.

Repairs by material
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.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area

Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Common questions in Appledore Heath
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
