About bathroom resealing in CT12
Homes in CT12 have the same weak spots as anywhere else: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Every joint is cut out, cleaned and left dry before it’s resealed. We’re often asked to deal with a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal and leaking joints on a shower screen, on kitchen worktops & upstands, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- 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’re told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
What you’ll pay
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
What you get with us
- Every job guaranteed for a year
- Tidy, careful work
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- You choose the colour before work begins

The closest station to Newington is Ramsgate station, roughly 0.7 miles south-east of the centre.

Where we work in CT12
Homes across CT12 range from older properties to new builds, and in places like Ramsgate, Broadstairs and St Lawrence there’s plenty of rented property too. Sound sealant and clean grout keep water out and rooms looking cared for.
London and the South East have homes from every era, from period terraces to post-war new towns and new estates. Each needs the right sealant for its age and materials. Coastal guest houses and holiday lets in CT12 can see heavy use in busy months, which is hard on sealant and grout, and the weather is hard on the outside too.
Newington: If you live in an older home near St Christopher's Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ramsgate Arts Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
Why it fails
Older sealant shrinks and hardens. Along worktops it tends to pull back from the wall, opening a hairline gap that lets water and crumbs in. Heat from the hob and strong sprays speed it along.
The problems people normally mention when they call include:
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black

Quotes for bathroom resealing in CT12
You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It’s based on:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- When we can work, for business premises
- The size of the job
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Asking for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- Roughly how big the job is
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- How we’d reach the joints
- Whether it has been sealed before
Need a quote? Please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details. You’ll know what we plan to do, and what it will cost, before any work begins.
Leave it or put it right?
Tired sealant isn’t a reason to replace a bath or shower. Replacing the joint is usually all it takes, as long as the fittings themselves are sound. If something else is wrong, we’ll tell you.
What your quote should include
- What product goes in the joint
- What the cure time is
- How hidden problems are handled
- What guarantee comes with the work
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
Questions from CT12
What colours of sealant can you use?
White and clear are the most common choices, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes, often alongside a bathroom. Where it’s needed by the sink, we use a food-safe sealant.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes, often. Several properties can go on one quote.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Our 12-month guarantee covers every job, and we’re fully insured.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
