How we handle bath resealing in Smarden
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are a messy previous reseal and water getting behind the bath or tray.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

How it works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes about two hours for a bath, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- 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.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Landlords, agents and businesses in Smarden
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What affects the price in Smarden
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Common problems we fix in Smarden
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What protection goes down before work starts
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
