Bath resealing in Gushmere without replacing anything
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and people most frequently call us about discoloured, yellow sealant and gaps by the taps.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Landlord and trade work in Gushmere
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
What we’re called out for in Gushmere
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Stained silicone
- Gaps in the seal
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What preparation is included
- What protection goes down before work starts

Your questions about bath resealing in Gushmere
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Usually because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Air the room after use
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
What affects the price in Gushmere
We don’t charge extra for travel to Gushmere. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
