Old Heath homes and their sealant
Old Heath is close to 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, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Rented homes near Hythe station change hands often, and a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. Schools such as Old Heath Community Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

When it isn’t the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
- A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported

Common problems we fix in Old Heath
Baths and trays move. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, and a tray that isn’t fully bedded can rock. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
Homes close to St Barnabas include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. It normally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. For a job in Old Heath, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- 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.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Related advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
Have a look at the joints every few months. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, so if something doesn’t look right, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning generally will not remove it. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.
How the job changes by surface
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the joints between floor and walls take standing water. They get anti-fungal sanitary silicone, and our work is on the visible joints only.
Basins & vanity units
The back of a basin gets wet every time someone washes. Corners behind basins are where mould tends to start, and we treat it exactly as we would a bath.
