How we handle bath resealing in Shadoxhurst

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for old sealant that looks dirty and mould you can’t clean out, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow around two hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Shadoxhurst questions

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Shadoxhurst included. Travel is included in the price.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kent and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Shadoxhurst

Resealing in Shadoxhurst: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Do you need bath resealing in Shadoxhurst?

Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Unsealed corners
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps in the seal

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
