- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
How we handle bathroom resealing in West Studdal
Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it into walls, panels and floors. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, shower trays & enclosures and sinks & splashbacks, and people most often call us about cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone and a reseal done over the top of the old bead.
Somewhere as small as West Studdal, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What affects the quote in West Studdal
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- When we can work, for business premises
- Any mould that needs treating
- How much there is to do
- The type of sealant required
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first.
Helping us quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- A few photos by email, if you can
- How we’d reach the joints
- The rough size of the job
- The type of property
Getting a quote is simple: let us know what needs doing and where. Photos by email help us understand the job.
What the job involves on each surface
Wet rooms
Wet rooms rely on sound joints at floor and wall junctions. They get anti-fungal sanitary silicone, and our work is on the visible joints only.
Sinks & splashbacks
Water getting under the rim of an inset sink can soak the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.
Landlords, agents and businesses in West Studdal
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in West Studdal and across Kent. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.
For anyone letting property in or around West Studdal, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
Leave it or put it right?
A clean new bead makes a room look cared for, which helps when a home is being let or put on the market. A smeared, uneven DIY bead does the opposite, and it’s harder to put right later. Older cottages and farmhouses around West Studdal can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

What bathroom resealing looks like in West Studdal
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.
Homes close to East Studdal Church Hall include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. If you let a flat or house near Martin Mill station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Move toiletries away from the joint
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
Watch for the early signs: lifting ends, gaps, dark shadows under the bead or a stain downstairs. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.
The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself generally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere like West Studdal needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- 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.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
