FAQs for Charing
Can you do bathroom resealing in Charing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Charing is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Charing?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the cure time for the product we used.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
Can you just seal over the old silicone?
No. It’s a common reason for reseals failing. We cut out all of the old sealant, clean the joint and start again.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Charing
We fill the bath before sealing it. A full bath sits slightly lower than an empty one, so the new joint isn’t pulled apart the first time it’s used. Quick jobs often leave it out, and it makes a real difference. If you have a reseal done over the top of the old bead and leaking joints on a shower screen, we can help, on kitchen worktops & upstands, baths and sinks & splashbacks alike.
Smaller places like Charing still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Older or newer, every room gets the same approach: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Charing as everywhere else we work.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Leave it or put it right?
The difference in a professional reseal is mostly what you don’t see: cutting out every trace of the old bead, cleaning, treating mould and letting the joint dry. Without that preparation, the new bead won’t last. In a smaller place like Charing, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.

Bathroom resealing around Charing
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.
In the older streets around Church of St Peter and St Paul, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. For landlords with property near Charing station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work usually takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. A visit to Charing is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
Clean the silicone with care: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.
Small signs come before a leak: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. Any of these means the joint needs attention.
Surface by surface
Baths
Baths move more than any other fitting, so we fill it with water before sealing. That way the joint is laid with the bath at its heaviest.
Wet rooms
If a wet room leaks, the cause may be the tanking or the drain rather than the joints. We check the joints and say so if the fault looks to be elsewhere.
