How it works
We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. In a small place like Stocker's Head, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We cover the area around the joints we are working on.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
How to prepare
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Advice
How we handle bathroom resealing in Stocker's Head
We fill the bath before sealing it. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the bead is not stretched the first time someone gets in. Quick jobs often leave it out, and it makes a real difference. If you have water getting behind the bath panel and gaps between the worktop and the wall, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
For a small place like Stocker's Head, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

What the job involves on each surface
Sinks & splashbacks
Water getting under the rim of an inset sink can soak the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.
Baths
The long joint down the side of a bath is where most leaks start, especially under a shower. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone, tooled so water cannot sit on it.

Common questions in Stocker's Head
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Charing 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 will give you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Stocker's Head?
Yes, Stocker's Head is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
We give you the cure time before we leave, and it’s usually around 24 hours. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
What should I tell you?
Tell us what needs doing and where. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints.
Where are you based?

Leave it or put it right?
Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. Around Stocker's Head, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Stocker's Head
With age, silicone loses its stretch. In kitchens it often shrinks away from the back edge, opening a hairline gap that lets water and crumbs in. Hot pans and harsh cleaners don’t help.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below

Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Are they insured?
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
Have a look at the joints every few months. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, and if anything looks wrong, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Worktop joints fail quietly. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, where it can make the board swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.
Bathroom resealing in Stocker's Head: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Peter and St Paul, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. If you let a flat or house near Charing station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
