Bath Resealing for Kentsboro homes
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Kentsboro, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Damp near the bath
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black mould in the sealant
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Bath resealing in Kentsboro, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for black mould in the sealant and an untidy old seal, across baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
What we are called out for in Kentsboro
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Look out for these signs:
- A messy previous reseal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black mould in the sealant
- Missing sealant behind the taps
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How to care for the finish
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep the joints dry
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Air the room after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

FAQs for Kentsboro
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Why it’s worth resealing in Kentsboro
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
