What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How many areas need sealing
- When we can work, for business premises
- Which sealant suits the joint
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Helping us quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Whether it has been sealed before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- The type of property
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
Why it’s worth doing now in Hever
A quick bead over the top of the old one might look better for a while, but it can’t stick to what’s underneath. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it. Older cottages and farmhouses around Hever can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.
What you get with us
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- You choose the colour before work begins
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
Do you need bathroom resealing in Hever?
Not every tube in the shop is meant for a shower. Decorators’ caulk and all-purpose sealants aren’t made for constant wetting, so they stain, crack or go mouldy before long. Wet areas call for a sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Water getting behind the bath panel
If you look after a building such as Hever Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- The length of the guarantee
How the job changes by surface
Shower trays & enclosures
Water often gets past the wall profile of a shower enclosure. It’s resealed along with the tray joints, following the enclosure maker’s guidance on which side to seal.
Baths
Most bath leaks begin along the long edge, particularly where there’s a shower over the bath. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Hever
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you let a flat or house near Hever station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. In the older streets around Church of St Peter, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. It generally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. In a small place like Hever, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Common questions in Hever
Is Hever within the area you cover?
Yes. Hever is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Hever station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
What colours of sealant can you use?
White and clear are the most common choices, and other colours are available to suit tiles, trays and worktops. Tell us what you’d like when you get in touch.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
How long before the new sealant can get wet?
After around 24 hours in most cases. We’ll tell you the cure time for the product we used.
