Bathroom resealing in Harbledown
Sealant that is mouldy, cracked or peeling shouldn’t be left until there’s a leak. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a photo of the joints, and we will give you a clear quote before any work starts. If you’re dealing with gaps between the worktop and the wall and failed sealant on the screen profile, we can help, whatever the surface.
Homes around Harbledown are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Should I try it myself first?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Harbledown
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Harbledown. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
If you look after a building such as The Canterbury Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. If you let a flat or house near Canterbury West station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. Homes close to St Michael and All Angels Church include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Move toiletries away from the joint
Clean the silicone with care: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Left alone, it soaks into the floor, the wall behind the tiles or the ceiling below. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.
When it is not the sealant
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Leave it or put it right?
Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it will not bond. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it. Around Harbledown, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot 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.

Harbledown questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Canterbury West station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you work in hotels near Harbledown?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Is white the only colour available?
White and clear are the most common choices, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Tell us what you’d like when you get in touch.
Do you guarantee your resealing?
Yes. All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
After around 24 hours in most cases. We will tell you the cure time for the product we used.
What we do, step by step
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. Somewhere as small as Harbledown, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
Before we arrive
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
