About our bathroom resealing in Tenterden
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, finished smooth so water drains away rather than collecting. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, sinks & splashbacks and baths, and people most often call us about damp behind the bath or under the tray and mouldy sealant that has gone black.
Even in a smaller place like Tenterden, bathrooms and kitchens see heavy daily use. Whether it’s a cottage bathroom or a newer en suite, the approach is the same: old sealant or grout cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.
Every job is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

FAQs for Tenterden
Do you cover smaller places like Tenterden?
Yes, Tenterden 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.
Do you take on hotel work around Tenterden?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
What do you put in the joint?
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.
Do you guarantee your resealing?
Yes. Every job carries our 12-month guarantee.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How long before the new sealant can get wet?
We give you the cure time before we leave, and it’s normally around 24 hours. Using it sooner can damage the bead.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No. Fresh silicone can’t stick to the old bead, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. We always take the old sealant out completely.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Move toiletries away from the joint
Keep bottles and razors off the sealant line, because they trap water against the silicone. A quick squeegee after showering helps the joint dry.
Small signs come before a leak: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. Any of these means the joint needs attention.
How we quote for bathroom resealing
There’s no set price list. The quote depends on:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The amount of work
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- The problem you’ve noticed
- The address or postcode of the job
- Any previous sealing or DIY work

What happens on the day
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. For a job in Tenterden, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- 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.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Bathroom resealing in Tenterden: local notes
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. Tenterden has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
For an older house near a landmark such as Parish Church of St Mildred, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

What we are called out for in Tenterden
Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Bathrooms without good ventilation give mould all the damp it needs, and once it has grown into the bead, cleaning rarely gets it out.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
If you look after a building such as Tenterden Infant School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
What your quote should include
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How much experience the applicator has
- What guarantee comes with the work
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
Different surfaces, different methods
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the joints between floor and walls take standing water. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, working on the surface joints, not the tanking or drainage.
Shower trays & enclosures
There are normally two jobs in a shower: the tray-to-wall joint and the enclosure joints. Both take water every day, so each is cut out and renewed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
