Common problems we fix in Greenhill
With age, silicone loses its stretch. In kitchens it often shrinks away from the back edge, opening a hairline gap that lets water and crumbs in. Hot pans and harsh cleaners do not help.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
In the older streets around St Peter, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Bathroom resealing in Greenhill, done properly
A reseal only lasts if the joint is properly prepared. 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. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. Typical jobs include gaps between the worktop and the wall and a bead that has pulled away from the tiles, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & upstands and shower trays & enclosures.
Around Greenhill, you’ll mostly find houses and bungalows, from older cottages to newer builds. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Greenhill as everywhere else we work.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Greenhill
Greenhill is within about 1 mile of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For landlords with property near Herne Bay station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. Schools such as Thornden Wood Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
Greenhill is about 1 mile south-west of Herne Bay, in Kent. Across the CT6 area, we can carry out bathroom resealing at your property. Greenhill is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent where we work. We also work in Chelmsford, around 37 miles away.
Every address in CT6 is covered for bathroom resealing, from the main roads to the quietest streets. Whether your property is on Love Street Close, Herne Drive and Matthews Road or a nearby road, our applicators can take on the job.

Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
Worktop joints fail quietly. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, where it can make the board swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.
Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Honest limits
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchen worktops & upstands
The joint between worktop and wall takes splashes, crumbs and cleaning sprays. We seal them in a colour that suits the worktop.
Shower trays & enclosures
Shower trays are sealed to the wall, and enclosures are sealed to the tray and tiles. Both get soaked every time the shower runs, so both are resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
What happens on the day
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower and we leave things clean and tidy. A visit to Greenhill is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We cover the area around the joints we are working on.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
Greenhill questions
Do you take on hotel work around Greenhill?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
Is Greenhill within the area you cover?
Yes, Greenhill is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. Allow a couple of hours for a typical bath or shower.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
