Bath resealing in Kingsdown, done in place
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about an untidy old seal and gaps in the seal.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common questions in Kingsdown
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Kent.
Are there extra charges for Kingsdown?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Resealing in Kingsdown: why it matters
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Keep bottles off the joints
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kingsdown
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kingsdown as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A flexing bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms

What affects the price in Kingsdown
We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
