Questions from New Barn
Why does mould come back so fast?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
How long before I can shower?
Generally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Do you cover the whole of Kent?
All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Bath resealing in New Barn without replacing anything
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We are often asked to fix stained silicone and unsealed corners, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Why it’s worth resealing in New Barn
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- We leave the room as we found it
- One-year guarantee on every repair

What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 generally the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How we price bath resealing
We charge the same across the UK, including New Barn. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Keep the joints dry
- Open a window after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
