Bath Resealing in Benenden
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone for homes and businesses in Benenden and across Kent. Send pictures for a free, fixed quote.
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use the extractor fan
- Open a window after bathing
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
How we handle bath resealing in Benenden
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with stained silicone and black mould in the sealant, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Common problems we fix in Benenden
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Damp near the bath
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Stained silicone
Questions to ask before booking
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
- What happens if they find more damage

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Are there extra charges for Benenden?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in 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.
Prices and what affects them
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
