Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Worth, Kent
Our technicians come to Worth for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Gaps by the taps
- Black spots in the silicone
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How we handle bath resealing in Worth
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with black spots in the silicone and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can usually put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Resealing in Worth: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Same prices wherever you are
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Worth questions
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Related advice
When to call us in Worth
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- An untidy old seal
- Leaks at the edges
- Unsealed corners
- Old sealant that looks dirty
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How long it needs to cure
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep the joints dry
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Use the extractor fan
- Let steam out after showers
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What bath resealing costs
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Worth. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
