Murston Bathroom Resealing
Professional bathroom resealing in and around Murston, with every bit of old sealant taken out first.
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
What happens if it’s left?
Fresh sealant smartens a bathroom or kitchen with very little disruption, which matters if you are letting a property or selling it. Lumpy sealant with smears on the tiles has the opposite effect, and it’s harder to put right later. Homes in smaller places like Murston can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.
What you get with us
- Arbo and Everbuild products
- Over 20 years’ experience
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet

Bathroom resealing in Murston
The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through and into the wall or floor. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. If you’re dealing with mouldy sealant that has gone black and water escaping at the shower enclosure, we can help.
Homes around Murston range from older cottages to more recent houses. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.
Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee.

Different surfaces, different methods
Wet rooms
If a wet room leaks, the cause may be the tanking or the drain rather than the joints. We check the joints and say so if the fault looks to be elsewhere.
Baths
The long joint down the side of a bath is where most leaks start, particularly where there’s a shower over the bath. It gets one smooth bead of anti-fungal silicone, tooled so water cannot sit on it.
How it works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it usually takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. In a smaller place like Murston, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
How to prepare
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
DIY versus a professional finish
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 fails, we can still redo it.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Murston homes and their sealant
Murston is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Murston has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of All Saints, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Letting a property close to Sittingbourne station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

When to call us in Murston
Silicone doesn’t last for ever. Daily water, heat and cleaning products take their toll over the years, and how long it lasts comes down to use, cleaning and ventilation.
The most common problems we see are:
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
If you look after a building such as Sunny Bank Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
What to look for in a quote
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- How the colour is chosen
- How much experience the applicator has
- How long to leave it before use
What affects the quote in Murston
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:

My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?

When can I use the bath or shower again?
The surface skins over fairly quickly, but the bead needs longer to cure right through. Leave it around 24 hours before it gets wet, or follow the cure time we give you.
