Bathroom & kitchen resealing in Badgers Mount, Kent
Bathroom resealing across Badgers Mount and nearby, with every bit of old sealant taken out first.
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
The process
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Somewhere as small as Badgers Mount, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Move anything stored near the joints

Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

Why act early in Badgers Mount
Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. Older cottages and farmhouses around Badgers Mount can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Badgers Mount
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you look after a building such as Halstead Community Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For an older house near a landmark such as St Margaret's Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Letting a property close to Knockholt station? Then a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
Keep water off the new bead until it has cured, which is usually around 24 hours. After that, a quick wipe after showering helps keep it clean.
Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Resealing early stops it.
Different surfaces, different methods
Baths
Baths move more than any other fitting, so we fill it with water before sealing. The joint is then laid with the bath at its lowest point.
Shower trays & enclosures
A tray that rocks will split any sealant. Movement is checked before anything is resealed, and tell you if it needs re-bedding first.
