Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Neames Forstal, Kent
We travel to Neames Forstal for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Damp near the bath
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Air the room after use
- Use the extractor fan
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Bath resealing at your home in Neames Forstal
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for mould you can’t clean out and sealant that’s split or lifting, in wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How we price bath resealing
There is no area surcharge for Neames Forstal. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
If you’re in Neames Forstal and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We leave the room as we found it
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Common questions in Neames Forstal
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
How much does bath resealing cost in Neames Forstal?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How long does resealing take?
Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
If you manage property in Neames Forstal, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
