Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Pratling Street, Kent
Bath resealing for Pratling Street, without a refit. Send us pictures for a fixed price, then we come to you.
- Stained silicone
- Black mould in the sealant
- Gaps by the taps
How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Open a window after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

FAQs for Pratling Street
Can you repair several things at once?

What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
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.
Are there extra charges for Pratling Street?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
