Aylesford questions
Do you cover smaller places like Aylesford?
Yes, Aylesford is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is Aylesford in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Aylesford is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Can you just seal over the old silicone?
No. A bead laid over old silicone soon starts to come away, because silicone does not bond to silicone. We remove the old bead completely before resealing.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
Most people choose white or clear, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few pictures.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
How we handle bathroom resealing in Aylesford
Across Aylesford, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Every joint is cut out, cleaned and left dry before it’s resealed. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and people most often call us about shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop and black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off.
Homes around Aylesford range from older cottages to more recent houses. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Aylesford
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Aylesford Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Rented homes near Aylesford station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.
Aylesford is about 3 miles north-west of Maidstone, in Kent. We carry out bathroom resealing for householders, landlords and businesses in Aylesford and nearby.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Parking around Aylesford is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
Ask for a quote
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
Do not stand bottles along the bead, as they hold water against it. Squeegeeing the walls and tray after use keeps water from sitting on the joint.
A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning generally won’t remove it, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
When it is not the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Common problems we fix in Aylesford
Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Steamy rooms that don’t dry out keep the silicone damp for hours, and once it has grown into the bead, cleaning rarely gets it out.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
Homes close to Aylesford Church include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Questions to ask before booking
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What insurance they hold
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
