Bathroom Resealing in Thanington
Problem with your baths, showers and worktops in Thanington? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly.
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Thanington
Resealing is a small job that makes a big difference. Mouldy silicone makes even a new bathroom look neglected, and a clean white or clear joint fixes it quickly. It also seals the gaps that let water behind the bath. If you’re dealing with a bead that has pulled away from the tiles and leaking joints on a shower screen, we can help, whatever the surface.
Even in a smaller place like Thanington, bathrooms and kitchens see heavy daily use. Older or newer, every room gets the same approach: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
You will get a clear quote before work begins. It’s based on:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The number of rooms or windows
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Mould in or behind the old joints
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 we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Roughly how big the job is
- The type of property
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- The problem you’ve noticed
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Your questions about bathroom resealing in Thanington
Do you work for landlords with property near Canterbury East station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Thanington?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Is there any odour?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Opening a window helps.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes, we replace the mouldy bead. Cleaning products may lighten it, but the lasting fix is new anti-fungal silicone on a clean, treated joint. Good ventilation helps keep it away.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

What else we do in Thanington
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Landlord and commercial work in Thanington
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can go on one quote.
What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The work normally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen, depending on the size of the job. Parking around Thanington is usually easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- 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, generally around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Advice
Signs you need bathroom resealing in Thanington
Silicone doesn’t last for ever. Daily water, heat and cleaning products take their toll over the years, so its life depends on how the room is used, cleaned and aired.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
Homes close to Church of St Nicholas include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Is VAT in the price?
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Which colour the sealant will be
Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
Keep bottles and razors off the sealant line, because they trap water against the silicone. A quick squeegee after showering keeps water from sitting on the joint.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
Thanington homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. Thanington 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 landlords with property near Canterbury East station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. Managing a site like The Canterbury Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

How the job changes by surface
Sinks & splashbacks
Around the sink, we use a product suited to kitchens, including a food-safe sealant where that’s needed. The bead is finished smooth so it wipes clean.
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.
