About our bath resealing in Sandling
We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops. Most jobs take a couple of hours. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are sealant that’s split or lifting and a messy previous reseal.

Sandling: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Landlord and trade work in Sandling
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Air the room after use
- Keep the joints dry
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Sandling. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
