Bathroom & kitchen resealing in Stoke, Medway
Our applicators work in Stoke on bath, shower, basin, wet room, worktop and sink resealing. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Don’t let bottles sit on the bead
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, which is normally around 24 hours. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.
A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.
Bathroom resealing in Stoke
It is not only bathrooms. Worktop upstands, sink edges and splashback joints all take splashes every day, and water that gets into the back edge of a worktop can swell the board. We reseal them with a kitchen-suitable silicone, matched to the worktop where it’s on show. Typical jobs include leaking joints on a shower screen and two layers of silicone, both failing, across kitchen worktops & upstands, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.
Being in a small place like Stoke makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re covered after we have gone.

Bathroom resealing around Stoke
Stoke is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
In the older streets around Church of St Peter and St Paul, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
Stoke is about 5 miles north of Gillingham, in Medway. From the centre of Stoke to the outskirts, bathroom resealing is available for homes and businesses alike, from flats and houses to offices and hotels. Our Medway coverage runs to 68 places, and Stoke is one of them. For nearby work, see our Chelmsford page (21 miles or so).

What else we do in Stoke
Stoke questions
Is there a guarantee on bathroom resealing in Stoke?
All our work, in Stoke and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you cover Stoke for bathroom resealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Stoke is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
Where do you work from?
We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
Around 24 hours is typical, and we confirm the time for the product used. Using it sooner can damage the bead.
Can tenants book the work?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few pictures.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Stoke and across Medway. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured for the work.
What the job involves on each surface
Basins & vanity units
On a basin, neatness shows: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, in white, clear or a colour to suit.
Baths
Acrylic baths give a little under load, while steel and cast iron baths move less but still settle when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.
Signs you need bathroom resealing in Stoke
Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, and a joint that looked fine soon begins to come away.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
Schools such as Stoke Primary Academy are buildings too, and 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.

What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. For a village or hamlet like Stoke, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any parking rules near the property
