What bathroom resealing looks like in Farningham
Farningham has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. 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.
Rented homes near Eynsford station change hands often, and a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. Schools such as The Anthony Roper Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Farningham
Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it and into the wall or floor. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. If you are dealing with leaks into the floor or ceiling below and new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In a village or hamlet like Farningham, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
Leave it or put it right?
You do not need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. A new bead often brings the whole room back. If something else is wrong, we will tell you. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Farningham, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Different surfaces, different methods
Baths
The long joint down the side of a bath is where most leaks start, particularly where there’s a shower over the bath. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone.
Basins & vanity units
A vanity top has a joint along the wall and sometimes at the sides. If water gets in, the cabinet underneath can swell, so the joint is sealed in one unbroken line.
When to call us in Farningham
Baths and trays move. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
Homes close to Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
What to look for in a quote
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- The length of the guarantee
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it

DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Your questions about bathroom resealing in Farningham
Do you work in hotels near Farningham?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Is Farningham within the area you cover?
Yes, Farningham is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. We always take the old sealant out completely.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Our 12-month guarantee covers every job, and we are fully insured.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes, often alongside a bathroom. Next to the sink we use a food-safe product where it’s needed.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so we cut it out, treat the joint and reseal with anti-fungal silicone.
