Our bathroom resealing service in TN10
We fill the bath before sealing it. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the bead is not stretched the first time someone gets in. Quick jobs often leave it out, and it makes a real difference. We work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and sinks & splashbacks, and people most often call us about smears of silicone across the tiles and damp behind the bath or under the tray.
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen.
- We cover the area around the joints we are working on.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- 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.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.

Bathrooms and kitchens across TN10
Homes across TN10 range from older properties to new builds, with plenty of rented property in places like Tonbridge and Hilden Park. Bathroom resealing keeps bathrooms and kitchens watertight and looking cared for.
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outside sealant still needs a dry, clean joint, so work across TN10 is planned around the weather.
Tonbridge: Schools such as New Beacon School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Rented homes near Tonbridge station change hands often, and a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
Wipe up standing water along the worktop joint. A dry joint lasts longer.
Worktop joints fail quietly. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, and the board underneath can swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.
Landlords, agents and businesses in TN10
For anyone letting property in or around TN10, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and photos by email help.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can be quoted together, and we are fully insured.
Why deal with it now?
A quick bead over the top of the old one might look better for a while, but it won’t bond. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it, and the next reseal means two layers to cut out.
Questions to ask before booking
- How much experience the applicator has
- How long the guarantee is
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Laminate worktops swell if water gets into the core. A continuous bead along the back keeps water out.
Sinks & splashbacks
Splashbacks in glass, tile or acrylic meet the worktop in a long joint. We renew it in clear, white or a matched colour.
Common problems we fix in TN10
Not every tube in the shop is meant for a shower. Decorators’ caulk and all-purpose sealants aren’t made for constant wetting, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. Wet areas call for a sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
TN10: your questions answered
How long will the resealing take?
That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you will get one quote.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes. Every job carries our one-year guarantee, and we’re fully insured.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
After around 24 hours in most cases. You will get the exact cure time before we leave.
