Bathroom Resealing in Nettlestead Green
Baths, showers and worktops in Nettlestead Green need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant.
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Bathroom resealing in Nettlestead Green, done properly
Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. Common call-outs are for cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone and new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting, on sinks & splashbacks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
For a small place like Nettlestead Green, 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.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Nettlestead Green and across Kent.

Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

Advice
Nettlestead Green homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you let a flat or house near Yalding station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. If you live in an older home near St Mary's Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
Have a look at the joints every few months. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, so if something does not look right, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Resealing early stops it.
What happens if it’s left?
Dealing with sealant early is a short job: the work takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating. In a small place like Nettlestead Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

How the job changes by surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Kitchen joints need more degreasing than bathroom ones, since cooking leaves a film that stops silicone sticking. The extra cleaning is what makes the bead last.
Sinks & splashbacks
Around the sink, we use a product suited to kitchens, and a food-safe product where it’s needed. The bead is finished smooth so it wipes clean.
Can I do it myself?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you are 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 fails, we can still redo it.
