Bathroom & kitchen resealing in Mount Pleasant, Kent
Our applicators work in Mount Pleasant on bath, shower, basin, wet room, worktop and sink resealing. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly.
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
Do not stand bottles along the bead, because they trap water against the silicone. Squeegeeing the walls and tray after use keeps water from sitting on the joint.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, and the board underneath can swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.
How we handle bathroom resealing in Mount Pleasant
Across Mount Pleasant, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: the long edge of the bath, the base of the shower tray, the back of the basin and the line along the worktop. Every joint is cut out, cleaned and left dry before it’s resealed. Typical jobs include gaps where the bath or tray has moved and sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
For a small place like Mount Pleasant, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
Every job comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What happens on the day
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. In a small place like Mount Pleasant, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

When it is not the sealant
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before booking.
What we seal
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Wet rooms
How the job changes by surface
Shower trays & enclosures
Shower trays are sealed to the wall, and enclosures are sealed to the tray and tiles. Both get soaked every time the shower runs, so each is cut out and renewed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Kitchen joints need more degreasing than bathroom ones, because cooking grease stops sealant bonding. Proper degreasing is what helps the new joint last.

Bathroom resealing in Mount Pleasant: local notes
Mount Pleasant is within about 3 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. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Letting a property close to Minster station? Then mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. Homes close to St Mildreds Church include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Managing a site like Minster Church of England Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
Mount Pleasant is about 4 miles south-west of Margate, in Kent.

Leave it or put it right?
Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but where mould is inside the silicone it usually comes back. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. In a small place like Mount Pleasant, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits. We will give you a clear price for the lot.

What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we are using.

Most people choose white or clear, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Tell us what you’d like when you get in touch.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
