How we handle bath resealing in Lower Bush
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you are dealing with leaks at the edges and a messy previous reseal, we can typically put it right.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Common questions in Lower Bush
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do you cover the whole of Medway?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep bottles off the joints
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Do you need bath resealing in Lower Bush?
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Unsealed corners
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
Questions to ask before you book
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How to care for the finish
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Landlords, agents and businesses in Lower Bush
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Hidden water damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to around two hours.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
