Bath Resealing for Harvel homes
Local bath resealing for Harvel: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Leaks at the edges
How we handle bath resealing in Harvel
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s sealant that’s split or lifting and gaps by the taps, we can typically put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms alike.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Harvel and across Kent.

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
What areas do you cover?
All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

How we price bath resealing
You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- The material, if you know it
If you are in Harvel and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common problems we fix in Harvel
Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Unsealed corners
- Black spots in the silicone
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Leaks at the edges
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
- Who will actually do the work
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job.

When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Air the room after use
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
