Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes. Where it’s needed by the sink, we use a food-safe sealant.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
How long will the resealing take?
That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.

About our bathroom resealing in Out Elmstead
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. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, wet rooms and baths, and the jobs we see most are black spots spreading through the bead and leaks into the floor or ceiling below.
Somewhere as small as Out Elmstead, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Bathroom resealing around Out Elmstead
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you let a flat or house near Aylesham station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Barham Church of England Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Homes close to Church of St Giles include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

What affects the quote in Out Elmstead
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The type of sealant required
- The size of the job
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- If someone has resealed it before
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Where the property is
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand.

What else we do in Out Elmstead
Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Why it’s worth doing now in Out Elmstead
Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but where mould is inside the silicone it normally comes back. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. Older cottages and farmhouses around Out Elmstead can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Out Elmstead
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the bead dries out between uses.
A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Resealing early stops it.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on

What happens on the day
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Somewhere as small as Out Elmstead, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
