About our bathroom resealing in The Valley

A bead that has gone black, split or come away is worth sorting before it lets water through. A photo of the joints helps when you ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email, and we’ll send you a clear quote for bathroom resealing in The Valley. We are often asked to deal with new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting and a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal, on baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & upstands.

Homes around The Valley are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Bathroom resealing around The Valley

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Lawrence, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

The Valley is about 6 miles south-west of Faversham, in Kent. We provide bathroom resealing to householders, landlords and businesses in The Valley and nearby, as part of our work across Kent.

Looking after it afterwards

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
  • Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
  • Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
  • Open a window or run the fan so the room dries

Check the sealant now and then. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, so if something does not look right, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Watch for the early signs: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.

What sealant work cannot fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:

  • Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
  • Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
  • Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.

Your questions about bathroom resealing in The Valley

Is The Valley within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Do you work for landlords with property near Charing station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.

What does bathroom resealing cost?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?

Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so the bead comes out, the joint is treated and new anti-fungal silicone goes in.

How long will the resealing take?

A single bath or shower takes about a couple of hours, including cutting out the old sealant. A whole bathroom plus the kitchen may take most of the day.

What do you need from me for a quote?

Let us know what needs doing and where, plus pictures if you have them. If we need more, we’ll ask.

When can I use the bath or shower again?

The surface skins over fairly quickly, but the bead needs longer to cure right through. Leave it around 24 hours before it gets wet, or follow the cure time we give you.

Why it’s worth doing now in The Valley

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. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like The Valley, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

Landlords, agents and businesses in The Valley

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.

When to call us in The Valley

Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, so a rushed job can start to lift early.

Common reasons people contact us are:

  • Smears of silicone across the tiles
  • Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
  • Two layers of silicone, both failing
  • Leaks into the floor or ceiling below

If you let a flat or house near Charing station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

What to look for in a quote

  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • How much experience the applicator has
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint

Choosing a sealant specialist

DIY versus a professional finish

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

How the visit works

On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. Most jobs take a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. In a small place like The Valley, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
  2. Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
  3. We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
  4. Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
  5. We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.

Before we arrive

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
