Bath resealing in West Langdon without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for damp near the bath and silicone coming away from the tiles, across basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Prices and what affects them
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Common questions in West Langdon
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Kent.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
