Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Lower Rainham, Medway
Fixed-price bath resealing in Lower Rainham and the surrounding area, typically in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- An untidy old seal
Bath resealing at your home in Lower Rainham
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are leaks at the edges and discoloured, yellow sealant.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Open a window after bathing
- Dry the seal after bathing
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What affects the price in Lower Rainham
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work 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.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Your questions about bath resealing in Lower Rainham
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
