Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Bethersden, Kent
We travel to Bethersden for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black mould in the sealant
- Unsealed corners
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
How we handle bath resealing in Bethersden
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Our repair technicians work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about black mould in the sealant and sealant that’s split or lifting.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
FAQs for Bethersden
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Are there extra charges for Bethersden?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What we’re called out for in Bethersden
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Look out for these signs:
- Damp near the bath
- Gaps by the taps
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What prep work is covered
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Same prices wherever you are
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, 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.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Bethersden, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
