Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Kingsnorth, Medway
Fixed-price bath resealing in Kingsnorth and the surrounding area, normally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Gaps by the taps
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Prices and what affects them
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Common questions in Kingsnorth
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How long does silicone take to cure?
You will get the curing time from us.
How much does bath resealing cost in Kingsnorth?
Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
Are there extra charges for Kingsnorth?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Let steam out after showers
- Keep the joints dry
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
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.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Kingsnorth
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
