- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
Keep water off the new bead until it has cured, which is generally around 24 hours. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.
Do not wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.
How we handle bathroom resealing in Waltham
Homes in Waltham have the same weak spots as anywhere else: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Each one is stripped, cleaned and dried before new silicone goes in. We’re often asked to deal with a reseal done over the top of the old bead and damp behind the bath or under the tray, across sinks & splashbacks, baths and shower trays & enclosures.
Homes around Waltham are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Honest limits
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

Should I try DIY first?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes, by replacing the sealant. 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.
Bathroom resealing around Waltham
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.
Rented homes near Chilham station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Bartholomew, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

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.
Surface by surface
Baths
Acrylic baths flex the most, while steel and cast iron baths move less but still settle when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.
Wet rooms
A wet room floor and its walls can move independently, so the internal corners need silicone rather than grout. Where grout in a corner has cracked, we can replace it with sealant.
Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
What happens on the day
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen in most cases. For a village or hamlet like Waltham, 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.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
