Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Winterbourne, Kent
Bath resealing in and around Winterbourne: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.

Resealing in Winterbourne: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. 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 price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A fixed quote before booking
- No need to remove anything
- Usually one visit, start to finish

How we handle bath resealing in Winterbourne
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are damp near the bath and missing sealant behind the taps.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Questions from Winterbourne
Why does mould come back so fast?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
How long will it take?
Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Open a window after bathing
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Do you need bath resealing in Winterbourne?
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Unsealed corners
- Water getting behind the bath or tray

Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow about two hours for a bath. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
