What happens on the day
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work generally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. For a village or hamlet like Clap Hill, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed, 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.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
How to prepare
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Clap Hill: your questions answered
Is Clap Hill in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Clap Hill is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Ham Street station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
What colours of sealant can you use?
White and clear are the most common choices, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
Do the sealants smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes, we replace the mouldy bead. Cleaning products may lighten it, but the lasting fix is new anti-fungal silicone on a clean, treated joint. Good ventilation helps keep it away.
Leave it or put it right?
Sorting it now is quick: it takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. Wait for a leak and you may be looking at panels off, drying out and redecorating too. Older cottages and farmhouses around Clap Hill can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Bathroom resealing around Clap Hill
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

Different surfaces, different methods
Sinks & splashbacks
Splashbacks in glass, tile or acrylic meet the worktop in a long joint. We renew it in clear, white or a matched colour.
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the joints between floor and walls take standing water. They get anti-fungal sanitary silicone, working on the surface joints, not the tanking or drainage.
Common problems we fix in Clap Hill
The wrong product fails fast. Acrylic caulk and general-purpose sealants aren’t designed for a joint that is wet every day, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. A bathroom joint needs anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Aldington Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, following the cure time we give you. 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. Resealing early stops it.
