Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Comp, Kent
Bath resealing across Comp and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Leaks at the edges
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
About our bath resealing in Comp
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for a messy previous reseal and old sealant that looks dirty, in kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Questions from Comp
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
How long before I can shower?
Typically after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Are there extra charges for Comp?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What bath resealing costs
We do not charge extra for travel to Comp. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TN15 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep bottles off the joints
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
