What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers in most cases. For a village or hamlet like Horsmonden, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- 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.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- 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
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Horsmonden
Kitchens need the same care as bathrooms. Worktop upstands, sink edges and splashback joints all take splashes every day, and water behind a laminate worktop can make it swell. Kitchen joints get a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows. If you have water escaping at the shower enclosure and cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone, we can help, on sinks & splashbacks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms alike.
Around Horsmonden, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

How the job changes by surface
Basins & vanity units
The back of a basin gets wet every time someone washes. Old sealant there often goes black at the corners, and we treat it exactly as we would a bath.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Laminate worktops swell if water gets into the core. A continuous bead along the back keeps water out, as long as the worktop itself is firmly fixed.

Is Horsmonden in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Horsmonden is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
How long will the resealing take?
It depends on how many joints there are and how much old sealant has to come out. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will tell you what we are using.
Where do you work from?
We work from Crawley. We cover Horsmonden and the rest of Kent, along with the rest of our area.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
How we quote for bathroom resealing
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Mould in or behind the old joints
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
Helping us quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add pictures by email if you can.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can be quoted together, and we are fully insured.
How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
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.
Worktop joints fail quietly. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, where it can make the board swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.
When it isn’t the sealant
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
- A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Horsmonden homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Managing a site like Horsmonden Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Rented homes near Paddock Wood station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
