How bath resealing works in Medway

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are a messy previous reseal and leaks at the edges.

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Landlord and trade work in Medway

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Medway as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Signs you need bath resealing

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

The things clients usually mention when they call are:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Gaps by the taps

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
