How the job changes by surface
Wet rooms
Wet room floors move slightly as they’re used, so the internal corners need silicone rather than grout. Where grout in a corner has cracked, we can replace it with sealant.
Basins & vanity units
A vanity top has a joint along the wall and sometimes at the sides. If water gets in, the cabinet underneath can swell, so the joint is sealed in one unbroken line.
Bathroom resealing in Manston
It is not only bathrooms. Worktop upstands, sink edges and splashback joints all take splashes every day, and water behind a laminate worktop can make it swell. We reseal them with a kitchen-suitable silicone, matched to the worktop where it’s on show. Typical jobs include leaking joints on a shower screen and splits where the tray meets the wall, across basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & upstands.
Homes around Manston are mostly 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: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into 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.
How we quote for bathroom resealing
Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- If someone has resealed it before
- Where the job is, and your postcode
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. When it suits you, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
For landlords and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can go on one quote.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Your questions about bathroom resealing in Manston
Do you cover Manston for bathroom resealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Manston is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Will you come out to Manston?
Yes. Manston is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
Allow a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. We’ll confirm how long your job needs when we quote.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Where are you based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Manston and the rest of Kent, along with the rest of our area.
What we’re called out for in Manston
Not every tube in the shop is meant for a shower. Acrylic caulk and general-purpose sealants aren’t designed for a joint that’s wet every day, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. Wet areas call for a sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
Homes close to St. Catherine's Church include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing

Bathroom resealing in Manston: local notes
Manston is within about 2 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you let a flat or house near Thanet Parkway station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. Schools such as Newington Community Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
Have a look at the joints every few months. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, so if something does not look right, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Don’t wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
The process
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. Somewhere like Manston needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Move anything stored near the joints
