Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Brook Street, Kent
Local bath resealing for Brook Street: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Damp near the bath
- An untidy old seal
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Let steam out after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Bath resealing in Brook Street, done in place
A good reseal is all about preparation: 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. We’re frequently asked to fix unsealed corners and mould you can’t clean out, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What else we do in Brook Street
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Brook Street use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Do you need bath resealing in Brook Street?
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Damp near the bath
- A messy previous reseal
- Gaps by the taps
- Gaps in the seal
