Bath resealing in Sevenoaks without replacing anything
We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about discoloured, yellow sealant and silicone smeared on tiles.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes around two hours. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep the joints dry
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Let steam out after showers
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Work for landlords and builders
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 matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sevenoaks. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Common problems we fix in Sevenoaks
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Silicone smeared on tiles

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
