Honest limits

- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
- A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint

How we handle bathroom resealing in Cranbrook Common
We fill the bath before sealing it. A full bath sits slightly lower than an empty one, so the new joint is not pulled apart the first time it’s used. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, baths and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are a reseal done over the top of the old bead and shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop.
Homes around Cranbrook Common are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Cranbrook Common and across Kent.

What the job involves on each surface
Sinks & splashbacks
Where a splashback meets the worktop, there’s a joint that catches every splash. It’s resealed in white, clear or a colour to suit.
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the joints between floor and walls take standing water. They get anti-fungal sanitary silicone, and our work is on the visible joints only.
Common problems we fix in Cranbrook Common
Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Traces of soap, bath oil and old sealant stop it gripping, and a joint that looked fine soon begins to come away.
The most common problems we see are:
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Cranbrook School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
What to look for in a quote
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether they’re fully insured
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
What we do, step by step
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Somewhere as small as Cranbrook Common, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, usually after around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
Check the sealant now and then. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, and if anything looks wrong, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Do not wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
Bathroom resealing in Cranbrook Common: local notes
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
Homes close to Church of the Holy Trinity include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. For landlords with property near Staplehurst station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
