Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Shelvin. Free, fixed quotes from your pictures.
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Stained silicone
- Gaps in the seal
Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
Most clients in Shelvin get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Bath resealing in Shelvin, done in place
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours. Whether it’s unsealed corners and black mould in the sealant, we can help, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Covering Shelvin
Shelvin is about 6 miles north-west of Dover, in Kent. Book a date that suits you, and you will know when to expect us, so there’s no waiting around. We work in all 922 towns and villages across Kent. You can also see our page for London, about 59 miles away.
Our visits in CT4 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. From Clints Lane and Shelvin Lane or anywhere nearby, we can come to you. We also cover the places around Shelvin: Wootton (1 mile south-west), Denton (1 mile west), Lodge Lees (1 mile west), Breach (2 miles west) and Selsted (2 miles south). Within a short drive, we also cover Ashford (14 miles west), Canterbury (8 miles north-west), Dover (6 miles south-east), Folkestone (7 miles south), Ramsgate (14 miles north-east) and Whitstable (13 miles north-west).
Near you in Shelvin
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Church of St Martin and Coach House Hotel and the streets around them. For rail, the closest station is Shepherds Well station, roughly 1.9 miles east. A little further out are Buckland Hospital (5.9 miles south-east).
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Usually one visit, start to finish

Questions from Shelvin
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Do you work in Shelvin?
We do. We send a technician to Shelvin for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Shelvin included. There is no extra charge for travel.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
