Leave it or put it right?
Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it can’t stick to what’s underneath. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Littlestone-on-Sea, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Do you cover smaller places like Littlestone-on-Sea?
Yes. Littlestone-on-Sea is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
What should I tell you?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
What sealant do you use?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes, often alongside a bathroom. Where it’s needed by the sink, we use a food-safe sealant.
How long before the new sealant can get wet?
Usually after around 24 hours. You’ll get the exact cure time before we leave.
When it is not the sealant
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
- Failed grout lines across the wall
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Different surfaces, different methods
Wet rooms
A wet room floor and its walls can move independently, so the internal corners need silicone rather than grout. Where grout in a corner has cracked, we can replace it with sealant.
Baths
The long joint down the side of a bath is where most leaks start, especially under a shower. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone, tooled so water cannot sit on it.
Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Littlestone-on-Sea
Littlestone-on-Sea 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, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Littlestone-on-Sea has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
Homes close to Church of St Nicholas include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Do not let bottles sit on the bead
Keep bottles and razors off the sealant line, because they trap water against the silicone. Squeegeeing the walls and tray after use keeps water from sitting on the joint.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Littlestone-on-Sea
Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Bathrooms without good ventilation keep the silicone damp for hours, and once it has grown into the bead, cleaning rarely gets it out.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
Schools such as The Marsh Academy are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How it works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere like Littlestone-on-Sea needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed, including the film left on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
