Bathrooms and kitchens in Worth Abbey
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you live in an older home near Abbey Church of Our Lady Help of Christians, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. If you let a flat or house near Three Bridges station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Bathroom resealing in Worth Abbey, done properly
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. Each gets a bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, sinks & splashbacks and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt and two layers of silicone, both failing.
Around Worth Abbey, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

What we’re called out for in Worth Abbey
Silicone doesn’t last for ever. Every shower, every splash and every wipe with a cleaner slowly wear it down, and how long it lasts comes down to use, cleaning and ventilation.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
Schools such as Oriel High School are buildings too, and 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.

Quotes for bathroom resealing in Worth Abbey
There’s no set price list. The quote depends on:
- The product the joint needs
- The number of rooms or windows

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. Your quote takes all of that into account.

FAQs for Worth Abbey
Will you come out to Worth Abbey?
Yes. Worth Abbey is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. 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 cover Worth Abbey for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Worth Abbey is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will tell you what we’re using.
Is white the only colour available?
You’re not limited to white: white, clear and colours to suit tiles and worktops. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes. Our 12-month guarantee covers every job, and we are fully insured.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
Generally after around 24 hours. We will tell you the cure time for the product we used.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it peels away and hides mould and water. All the old sealant comes out first.
What we can’t put right
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.
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. Any of these means the joint needs attention.
Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
The process
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. In a small place like Worth Abbey, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Move anything stored near the joints
