Surface by surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Upstands and back edges are cut out, cleaned of grease and resealed, since cooking leaves a film that stops silicone sticking. The extra cleaning is what makes the bead last.
Baths
A bath shifts slightly every time it’s filled, so it’s filled with water before the bead goes on. That way the joint is laid with the bath at its heaviest.
How we handle bathroom resealing in New Pound
Before a bath is sealed, it’s filled with water. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the new joint is not pulled apart the first time it’s used. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. We are often asked to deal with gaps between the worktop and the wall and cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone, across baths, basins & vanity units and sinks & splashbacks.
Homes around New Pound are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Why act early in New Pound
Most of the work in a good reseal happens before any silicone goes on: cutting out every trace of the old bead, cleaning, treating mould and letting the joint dry. Without that preparation, the new bead will not last. In a small place like New Pound, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
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 does not work out, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
When it is not the sealant
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

New Pound questions
Do you cover smaller places like New Pound?
Yes, New Pound is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you cover New Pound for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and New Pound is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
You are not limited to white: white, clear and colours to suit tiles and worktops. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, regularly. We can quote for several properties at once, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses and we’re fully insured.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
The surface skins over fairly quickly, but the bead needs longer to cure right through. Keep water off it for around 24 hours, or follow the cure time we give you.
Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?
Yes. Where it’s needed by the sink, we use a food-safe sealant.
How the visit works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, 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 New Pound, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
Getting a quote
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand.

Bathrooms and kitchens in New Pound
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.
Homes close to St Lawrence's Church include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Mereworth Community Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

When to call us in New Pound
Sealing over old silicone is one of the commonest mistakes we find. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.
The most common problems we see are:
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
If you let a flat or house near Wateringbury station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
Questions to ask before you book

- Is VAT in the price?
- The length of the guarantee
