Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
  • Failed grout lines across the wall

Bathroom resealing in Wilmington, done properly

The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through into walls, panels and floors. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. Typical jobs include black spots spreading through the bead and gaps where the bath or tray has moved, on kitchen worktops & upstands, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.

Somewhere as small as Wilmington, 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.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Why it’s worth doing now in Wilmington

Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, turning a small job into a building repair. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Wilmington, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Landlord and commercial work in Wilmington

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll give you a quote.

Surface by surface

Wet rooms

If a wet room leaks, the cause may be the tanking or the drain rather than the joints. We reseal the joints and will tell you if the water seems to be coming from somewhere else.

Sinks & splashbacks

Around the sink, we use a product suited to kitchens, and a food-safe product where it’s needed. The bead is finished smooth so it wipes clean.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Wilmington

Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Bathrooms without good ventilation keep the silicone damp for hours, and once it has grown into the bead, cleaning rarely gets it out.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
  • Mouldy sealant that has gone black
  • A joint torn by a bath that flexes
  • Damp behind the bath or under the tray

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Wilmington Grammar School for Girls, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not

How to choose a mastic man

Wilmington homes and their sealant

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

Letting a property close to Crayford station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. For an older house near a landmark such as St Barnabas, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Wilmington is about 2 miles south-west of Dartford, in Kent. Jobs in Wilmington get the same care as everywhere else we work: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a one-year guarantee. We cover 922 towns and villages across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for London, roughly 13 miles from Wilmington.

Postcode districts we cover here for bathroom resealing: DA2, DA5 and DA1. That includes homes and businesses on Common Lane, Parsons Lane and Oakfield Lane. Wilmington is on the A2, so it’s easy for us to get to.

Within a short drive, we also cover Sevenoaks (10 miles south), Gravesend (8 miles east), Northfleet (7 miles east), Kings Hill (14 miles south-east), Swanscombe (5 miles east) and Windmill Hill (8 miles east).

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Move toiletries away from the joint
  • Give the silicone its full cure time
  • Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
  • Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then

Check the sealant now and then. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, so if something does not look right, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning normally won’t remove it. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.

Questions from Wilmington

Will you come out to Wilmington?

Yes. Wilmington is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Crayford station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.

Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?

Yes. We reseal worktop upstands, sinks and splashbacks, in a kitchen-suitable sealant, matched to the worktop where it’s on show.

Will there be a smell?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.

Which products do you use?

The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. We can talk about working times when we quote.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.

Is it messy?

Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.

What happens on the day

We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we’re working on. The job generally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. For a village or hamlet like Wilmington, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
  2. Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
  3. We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
  4. A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, generally after around 24 hours.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
