Bathroom resealing in Longfield Hill, done properly

Homes in Longfield Hill have the same weak spots as anywhere else: the long edge of the bath, the base of the shower tray, the back of the basin and the line along the worktop. Each one is stripped, cleaned and dried before new silicone goes in. We are often asked to deal with gaps where the bath or tray has moved and mouldy sealant that has gone black, across basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures.

In a village or hamlet like Longfield Hill, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after we have gone.

Different surfaces, different methods

Sinks & splashbacks

Next to the sink, the sealant has to cope with constant water, and a food-safe product where it’s needed. The joint is laid neatly so it’s easy to wipe.

Basins & vanity units

On a basin, neatness shows: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, in white, clear or a colour to suit.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can go on one quote.

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

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 fails, we can still redo it.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Longfield Hill

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

Homes close to Church of St Mildred include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. If you let a flat or house near Meopham station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. Managing a site like Istead Rise Primary School? Then washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

Aftercare tips

A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:

  • Don’t let bottles sit on the bead
  • Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
  • Squeegee the walls and tray after use
  • Never pick at the silicone with a blade

Keep water off the new bead until it has cured, which is normally around 24 hours. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.

Small signs come before a leak: lifting ends, gaps, dark shadows under the bead or a stain downstairs. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.

Quotes for bathroom resealing in Longfield Hill

The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:

  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • Any mould that needs treating

  • The type of sealant required

There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

  • The rough size of the job
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • If someone has resealed it before

Why deal with it now?

Most of the work in a good reseal happens before any silicone goes on: removing all the old sealant, degreasing the joint, treating mould and drying it properly. Without that preparation, the new bead won’t last. Around Longfield Hill, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.

Why book with us

  • Full insurance on every job
  • One-year guarantee on every job
  • Homes, businesses and hotels
  • Old sealant always removed completely

Common questions in Longfield Hill

Do you cover smaller places like Longfield Hill?

Yes, Longfield Hill is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

I let a flat near Meopham station. Can you help?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?

Around 24 hours is typical, and we confirm the time for the product used. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.

How do I get a quote for bathroom resealing in Longfield Hill?

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing and where.

Do I need to be at home?

It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access.

Do the sealants smell?

It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.

The process

You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen for a typical job. Somewhere as small as Longfield Hill, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead.
  2. Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
  3. We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
  4. New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
  5. Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
