The process
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere as small as Chislet, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

How do I get a quote for bathroom resealing in Chislet?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a short description of the job.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we’re fully insured too.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
How long does it take to reseal a bath or shower?
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.
Bathroom resealing around Chislet
Chislet is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. 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.
For landlords with property near Herne Bay station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. Managing a site like Chislet Church of England Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Leave it or put it right?
The difference in a professional reseal is mostly what you do not see: 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. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Chislet, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.

For landlords and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

What we’re called out for in Chislet
Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Steamy rooms that do not dry out keep the silicone damp for hours, and mould that has grown into the silicone generally won’t clean off.
The most common problems we see are:
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary the Virgin, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Surface by surface
Wet rooms
Not every wet room leak is a sealant problem. We reseal the joints and will tell you if the water seems to be coming from somewhere else.
Shower trays & enclosures
The vertical joint where a screen profile meets the wall is a common leak point. We reseal it along with the base of the enclosure, following the enclosure maker’s guidance on which side to seal.

How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
- Don’t let bottles sit on the bead
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
In a kitchen, do not let water sit along the back of the worktop and keep hot pans off the bead. A dry joint lasts longer.
Worktop joints fail quietly. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, where it can make the board swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.
What sealant work cannot fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
- A tray or bath that is cracked through
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
