Should I try it myself first?
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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Lower Cox Street
Resealing is a small job that makes a big difference. Black, patchy sealant makes clean tiles look tired, and a neat new joint puts that right in a short visit. Just as important, it closes the gaps water would otherwise get through. If you have black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off and smears of silicone across the tiles, we can help, on basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & upstands alike.
Around Lower Cox Street, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Why deal with it now?
The difference in a professional reseal is mostly what you do not see: removing all the old sealant, degreasing the joint, treating mould and drying it properly. Without that preparation, the new bead will not last. Around Lower Cox Street, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

How it works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Somewhere like Lower Cox Street needs a little journey planning: 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 protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Advice
What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- The size of the job
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- The type of property
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Where the property is
- The rough size of the job
There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
What bathroom resealing looks like in Lower Cox Street
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Peter, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Questions from Lower Cox Street
I let a flat near Bearsted station. Can you help?

Is Lower Cox Street in your area for bathroom resealing?

Does the resealing come with a guarantee?

Do the sealants smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
Is white the only colour available?
You’re not limited to white: white, clear and colours to suit tiles and worktops. We can help you pick when we quote.
How much does bathroom resealing cost in Lower Cox Street?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You’ll get a clear quote before work begins.
How long will the resealing take?
A single bath or shower takes about a couple of hours, including cutting out the old sealant. A full bathroom and kitchen can take most of a day.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Do you need bathroom resealing in Lower Cox Street?
No sealant lasts indefinitely. Daily water, heat and cleaning products take their toll over the years, so its life depends on how the room is used, cleaned and aired.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
Rented homes near Bearsted station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.
What your quote should include
- What the cure time is
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- Who turns up on the day
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
Different surfaces, different methods
Basins & vanity units
A vanity top has a joint along the wall and sometimes at the sides. Water that gets behind can damage the unit, so a neat, continuous bead matters.
Shower trays & enclosures
There are generally two jobs in a shower: the tray-to-wall joint and the enclosure joints. Both get soaked every time the shower runs, so each is cut out and renewed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
