How it works
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. The job normally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. Somewhere like Chainhurst needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Related advice
Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Chainhurst
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Trays, enclosures, screen profiles and wet room floors all need a flexible, waterproof seal. Each gets a bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. If you have gaps between the worktop and the wall and sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Chainhurst, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.

What happens if it’s left?
Sorting it now is quick: the work takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Wait for a leak and you may be looking at panels off, drying out and redecorating too. In a small place like Chainhurst, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Bathroom resealing around Chainhurst
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For landlords with property near Marden station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the bead dries out between uses.
A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.

Honest limits
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
When to call us in Chainhurst
Black mould is behind a lot of resealing. Bathrooms without good ventilation keep the silicone damp for hours, and mould that has grown into the silicone usually will not clean off.
Look out for any of the following:
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
Around Chainhurst, as everywhere, bathroom resealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.

How the job changes by surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
The joint between worktop and wall takes splashes, crumbs and cleaning sprays. The new bead is colour-matched where it shows.
Shower trays & enclosures
Water often gets past the wall profile of a shower enclosure. We reseal it along with the base of the enclosure, following the enclosure maker’s guidance on which side to seal.
