Bathroom resealing in Medway: how it works

A bead that has gone black, split or come away shouldn’t be left until there’s a leak. A photo of the joints helps when you ring 0345 464 0079 or email us, and you will get a clear quote for bathroom resealing in Medway. We work on wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about smears of silicone across the tiles and a bead that has pulled away from the tiles.

We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen.

  1. We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead.
  2. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  3. Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
  4. New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
  5. We tidy up and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

What you will pay

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 we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Around Gillingham

Locally, jobs take us to homes and businesses close to The Robert Napier School, Featherby Junior School and The Robert Napier School, among other places. Also close by are Holy Trinity Church (within half a mile north-east), The Star pub (0.6 miles west) and Ambley Wood (0.8 miles south). The closest station to Gillingham is Gillingham (Kent) station, roughly 1.5 miles north-west of the centre. Well-known places in the area include Medway Maritime Hospital (1.6 miles west) and Six Poor Travellers House (3.3 miles west). For a walk, there’s Blue Bell Hill and Bishop Saltings.

Where we work in Medway

Medway has homes of every age, old and new, and in places like Gillingham, Chatham and Rochester there’s plenty of rented property too. Bathroom resealing keeps bathrooms and kitchens watertight and 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, wherever it is in Medway. Along the coast in Medway, holiday lets and guest houses can have bathrooms in near-constant use, so their sealant and grout wear faster than most, and the weather is hard on the outside too.

Gillingham: Schools such as Featherby Junior 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. Homes close to Holy Trinity Church include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Common problems we fix in Medway

A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. An acrylic bath flexes under load, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.

People generally contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
  • A reseal done over the top of the old bead
  • Water getting behind the bath panel
  • Gaps between the worktop and the wall

Aftercare tips

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Dry the bead with a towel now and then
  • Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
  • Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
  • Do not leave water standing on kitchen joints

Treat the new bead gently when you clean: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.

Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. Left alone, it soaks into the floor, the wall behind the tiles or the ceiling below. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.

For landlords and businesses

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

How we quote for bathroom resealing

Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:

  • Whether the work is at height
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • How many areas need sealing

What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Helping us quote

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:

  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Surface by surface

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Water behind a laminate worktop can make the edge swell. A sound joint along the back edge stops that.

Wet rooms

Wet room floors move slightly as they’re used, so the corners need a flexible seal, not grout. Where grout in a corner has cracked, we can replace it with sealant.

Medway questions

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

Can I do it myself?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

What does bathroom resealing cost?

There’s no set price, as it 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.

Can new silicone go straight over the old?

No. It’s a common reason for reseals failing. We cut out all of the old sealant, clean the joint and start again.

Is it messy?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?

Yes. Next to the sink we use a food-safe product where it’s needed.
