Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Calcott, Kent
Local bath resealing for Calcott: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Gaps in the seal
- Gaps by the taps
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Bath resealing at your home in Calcott
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 work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and people most often call us about gaps by the taps and mould you can’t clean out.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

- Mould you can’t clean out
- Leaks at the edges

Common questions in Calcott
Do you cover the entire of Kent?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Calcott. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Calcott
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.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Let steam out after showers
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
How we price bath resealing
There is no area surcharge for Calcott. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes around two hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
