Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
About our bath resealing in Greenhithe
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s an untidy old seal and missing sealant behind the taps, we can help.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes around two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What bath resealing costs
There’s no charge for travel to Greenhithe. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
The price 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.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Natural light rather than flash
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DA9 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Landlord and trade work in Greenhithe
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
If you manage property in Greenhithe, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Common problems we fix in Greenhithe
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- An untidy old seal
- Black mould in the sealant
- Damp near the bath
- Gaps in the seal

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Air the room after use
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Your questions about bath resealing in Greenhithe
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
How long does silicone take to cure?
We will give you the curing time.
How much does bath resealing cost in Greenhithe?
We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your DA9 postcode.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Why it’s worth resealing in Greenhithe
Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
