Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in New Hythe, Kent
Our technicians come to New Hythe for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Black mould in the sealant
- Gaps in the seal
- Gaps by the taps
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Air the room after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s gaps in the seal and missing sealant behind the taps, we can usually put it right.

Common questions in New Hythe
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
How long does resealing take?
Normally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
What areas do you cover?
All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
How we price bath resealing
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your ME20 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in New Hythe use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
When to call us in New Hythe
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.
People generally call us after spotting one of these:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Gaps in the seal
- Silicone smeared on tiles
