How we handle bath resealing in Hythe
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s silicone smeared on tiles and black mould in the sealant, we can help, on wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hythe as everywhere else we work.

Hythe questions
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
