Bekesbourne Bathroom Resealing
We cover Bekesbourne for bath, shower, basin, wet room, worktop and sink resealing. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly.
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
When it is not the sealant
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.
What we seal
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
How we handle bathroom resealing in Bekesbourne
The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through and into the wall or floor. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We’re often asked to deal with a joint torn by a bath that flexes and damp behind the bath or under the tray, across kitchen worktops & upstands, baths and basins & vanity units.
Being in a small place like Bekesbourne makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What happens if it’s left?
Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but where mould is inside the silicone it normally comes back. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. Around Bekesbourne, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Bekesbourne
No sealant lasts indefinitely. Daily water, heat and cleaning products take their toll over the years, so its life depends on how the room is used, cleaned and aired.
The most common problems we see are:
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
Managing a site like St. Anselm's Catholic School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Bathroom resealing around Bekesbourne
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Rented homes near Bekesbourne station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. Homes close to Church of St Peter include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.
Small signs come before a leak: lifting ends, gaps, dark shadows under the bead or a stain downstairs. Any of these means the joint needs attention.
How it works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as Bekesbourne, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, usually after around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
How do I get a quote for bathroom resealing in Bekesbourne?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.
Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Surface by surface
Wet rooms
A wet room floor and its walls can move independently, so the internal corners need silicone rather than grout. Cracked grout in a corner can be cut out and replaced with silicone.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Upstands and back edges are cut out, cleaned of grease and resealed, because cooking grease stops sealant bonding. Proper degreasing is what helps the new joint last.
