Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Do not let bottles sit on the bead
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
Check the sealant now and then. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, and if anything looks wrong, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning normally won’t remove it, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
Your questions about bathroom resealing in Donkey Street
Do you work for landlords with property near Westenhanger station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Will you come out to Donkey Street?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
Generally after around 24 hours. You’ll get the exact cure time before we leave.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Tell us what needs doing and where, plus pictures if you have them. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?
Yes. Kitchen joints get extra degreasing before the new bead goes on, then we reseal in a colour to suit.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Donkey Street
Donkey Street is within about 2 miles of 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.
Homes close to Church of All Saints include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. For landlords with property near Westenhanger station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

What’s near Donkey Street

Other landmarks nearby include Lympne Castle (1.7 miles north-east) and Hythe Museum (3.6 miles east). The countryside around Donkey Street includes Tolsford Hill.
Why act early in Donkey Street
Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it can’t stick to what’s underneath. Water creeps under it and mould follows, so the next person has twice as much to remove. Older cottages and farmhouses around Donkey Street can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

What happens on the day
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom, including the tidy-up. Somewhere as small as Donkey Street, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice
When it is not the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- A tray or bath that is cracked through
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.

How the job changes by 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.
Basins & vanity units
The back of a basin gets wet every time someone washes. Corners behind basins are where mould tends to start, and we treat it exactly as we would a bath.
