About our bathroom resealing in Goudhurst
The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. Every bit of old silicone comes out, down to the thin film left on the tiles, then the joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould. New silicone goes on only when the joint is fully dry. We are often asked to deal with black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off and water getting behind the kitchen upstand, across sinks & splashbacks, kitchen worktops & upstands and shower trays & enclosures.
In a village or hamlet like Goudhurst, 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’ll put it right.

Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Goudhurst questions
Can you do bathroom resealing in Goudhurst?
Yes, Goudhurst is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Marden station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Do you guarantee your resealing?
Yes. Our one-year guarantee covers every job, and we are ARBOMaster approved applicators.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes. Once mould has grown into the silicone, it generally can’t be cleaned out for good, so the bead comes out, the joint is treated and new anti-fungal silicone goes in.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No, and it’s one of the main reasons reseals fail. The old joint is stripped, cleaned and resealed from scratch.
How much does bathroom resealing cost in Goudhurst?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before we start.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
Silicone is touch-dry quite quickly, but it takes longer to cure. Leave it around 24 hours before it gets wet, or as long as we advise for that product.
What happens on the day
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. It generally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. Somewhere as small as Goudhurst, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, usually after around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- The amount of work
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll talk you through it.
Asking for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Where the job is, and your postcode
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand.
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Sinks & splashbacks

Why act early in Goudhurst
You don’t need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. Replacing the joint is generally all it takes, as long as the fittings themselves are sound. If we find a deeper problem, you’ll hear it from us. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Goudhurst, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Do you need bathroom resealing in Goudhurst?
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
If you let a flat or house near Marden station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Goudhurst
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you look after a building such as Goudhurst and Kilndown Church of England Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. For an older house near a landmark such as St Mary's Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
