Bathroom & kitchen resealing in Chatham Waterfront, Medway
Baths, showers and worktops in Chatham Waterfront need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant.
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath panel
How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, which is generally around 24 hours. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.
A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.

How we quote for bathroom resealing
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The size of the job
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How easy the joints are to reach
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The address or postcode of the job
To get a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. You will have a clear quote before work begins.
Different surfaces, different methods
Sinks & splashbacks
Water getting under the rim of an inset sink can soak the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Water behind a laminate worktop can make the edge swell. A continuous bead along the back keeps water out.
Leave it or put it right?
Most of the work in a good reseal happens before any silicone goes on: cutting out every trace of the old bead, cleaning, treating mould and letting the joint dry. Skip those steps and even the best silicone fails early. In an older home around Chatham Waterfront, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.
Why us?
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- More than 20 years in sealant work
- One-year guarantee on every job
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Your questions about bathroom resealing in Chatham Waterfront
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Chatham station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Chatham Waterfront?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
Can I do 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 need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
What should I tell you?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Do you guarantee your resealing?
Yes. We give a 12-month guarantee on every job, and we’re ARBOMaster approved applicators.
What do you put in the joint?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes, we can. We strip the bead, treat the joint and lay new anti-fungal silicone.
When to call us in Chatham Waterfront
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.
The problems people normally mention when they call include:
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
If you let a flat or house near Chatham station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
What to look for in a quote
- Which colour the sealant will be
- Whether they’re fully insured
- What product goes in the joint
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
How it works
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. The work usually takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. A visit to Chatham Waterfront is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- 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.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
