How we quote for bathroom resealing
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- Access and height
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- When we can work, for business premises
- The number and length of the joints
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Roughly how big the job is
- The type of property
We do not publish a price list. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To arrange one, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Move toiletries away from the joint
Keep bottles and razors off the sealant line, as they hold water against it. A quick squeegee after showering helps the joint dry.
A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.
Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Surface by surface
Shower trays & enclosures
There are generally two jobs in a shower: the tray-to-wall joint and the enclosure joints. Both take water every day, so each is cut out and renewed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Baths
Acrylic baths flex the most, while steel and cast iron baths move less but still settle when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.
Your questions about bathroom resealing in Lydden
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Kearsney station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Lydden?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Will it make a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
What do you put in the joint?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so we cut it out, treat the joint and reseal with anti-fungal silicone.
How long does it take to reseal a bath or shower?
It depends on how many joints there are and how much old sealant has to come out. Allow a couple of hours for a typical bath or shower.
Is white the only colour available?
Most people choose white or clear, and other colours are available to suit tiles, trays and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes. Our 12-month guarantee covers every job, and we are fully insured.

What else we do in Lydden
Bathroom resealing around Lydden
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
In the older streets around Church of St Mary Church of St Mary Virgin, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Letting a property close to Kearsney station? Then mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

When to call us in Lydden
The wrong product fails fast. Decorators’ caulk and all-purpose sealants are not 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.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Lydden Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. It usually takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. In a small place like Lydden, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
