About our bath resealing in Bekesbourne

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include old sealant that looks dirty and black mould in the sealant, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Wipe the joints dry after use
Use the extractor fan
Give the seal a regular clean

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Bekesbourne: your questions answered

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you cover Bekesbourne?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Bekesbourne and the rest of Kent. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Bekesbourne?

Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your CT4 postcode.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes about two hours for a bath. We leave the room clean.

The old silicone is cut out completely.
We remove the residue and clean the joint.
We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

Movement in the bath or tray
Gaps too big for silicone alone
Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Bekesbourne

Basins & vanity units

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bekesbourne

For anyone letting property in or around Bekesbourne, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
