Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Parkgate
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 into walls, panels and floors. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. If you are dealing with water getting behind the kitchen upstand and black spots spreading through the bead, we can help, whatever the surface.
For a small place like Parkgate, 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.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

The process
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. Somewhere like Parkgate needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Move anything stored near the joints

Advice
Can I do it myself?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What the job involves on each surface
Basins & vanity units
Basin joints are short and close to eye level: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, finished in a colour that suits the basin.
Wet rooms
A wet room floor and its walls can move independently, so the internal corners need silicone rather than grout. Where grout in a corner has cracked, we can replace it with sealant.

FAQs for Parkgate
Will you come out to Parkgate?
Yes, Parkgate is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Holmwood station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes. All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, and we’re fully insured.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll explain our choice.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes. Once mould has grown into the silicone, it generally can’t be cleaned out for good, so we cut it out, treat the joint and reseal with anti-fungal silicone.
Parkgate homes and their sealant
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.

For landlords and businesses

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. We can quote for more than one property at once.
What we’re called out for in Parkgate
A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
For landlords with property near Holmwood station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the bead dries out between uses.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning usually will not remove it. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
