Kitchen Sealant: Worktop, Sink and Upstand Silicone, Colour-Matched
Tired, stained or split sealant lets water and crumbs work into the corners of a kitchen. Our team applies kitchen sealant round sinks, worktops and upstands, removing the old bead first and finishing in a colour that suits your worktop.
The joints in a kitchen that need good sealant
A kitchen is a busy, wet room. Spilt water collects where the sink meets the worktop, steam rises behind the hob and tap splashes run down the wall every day. The sealant at each of these joints keeps water out of chipboard worktop cores, out of cabinet tops and out of the wall behind.
When that sealant yellows, cracks or comes away, the gap collects grease and grime that is hard to clean. A neat new bead looks better and protects the units, which is why kitchen sealant is one of the quickest ways to freshen up a tired kitchen.
Resealing kitchen worktop joints is a small job with a big effect. Kitchen worktop silicone, worktop sealant and a tidy kitchen sink sealant line all make the room look cleaner, and upstand sealing at the back of the worktop keeps spills out of the wall. Think of it as kitchen mastic that does its job quietly.
Every kitchen joint we renew
Sink to worktop
The rim of an inset sink or the edge of an undermount bowl, sealed so water cannot soak into the worktop.
Worktop to wall
The back joint between the worktop and the wall or tiles, including internal corners.
Upstands
The joint along the top and bottom of a worktop upstand.
Splashbacks
Tiled, glass or panel splashbacks sealed to the worktop. See worktop and splashback sealant.
Tile edges
Tile to worktop and tile to window reveals, see tile sealant.
Window and door frames
The joint round a kitchen window or back door frame.
Choosing a sealant colour that suits the worktop
A kitchen sealant line is very visible, so colour matters. White works well against white tiles, but dark worktops, stone effects and wood finishes often look better with grey, black, brown or a colour-matched sealant. We carry a wide range and can match from our sealant colour charts.
We use and apply Everbuild, Dow, Soudal, Bostik and Sika products, choosing an anti-mould sealant that suits kitchen surfaces and resists staining.
A clean, tidy reseal with minimal fuss
Clear and protect
We ask you to clear the worktop edge and we protect the surfaces round the joint.
Cut out
Old sealant is cut out completely, never sealed over.
Clean and dry
Grease, soap and mould are cleaned off and the joint is dried.
Seal and tool
New sealant is applied and tooled to a neat, even line.
Most kitchens are done in a single visit, and we leave the area tidy. We will tell you how long to leave the joint before using the sink, which depends on the sealant.
Homes, rentals and new kitchens
We reseal kitchens in owner-occupied homes, flats, rentals and new-build plots. Landlords use us between tenancies to freshen kitchens quickly, and housebuilders use our team to finish internal joints at handover. See internal mastic for new builds.
Our team has over 20 years in construction behind it, and we work across London, the South East, the Midlands, the East of England and the South.

Kitchen sealant: common questions
What sealant is used round a kitchen sink?
A mould-resistant sanitary silicone is the usual choice because it stays flexible and resists staining. We pick the product to suit your sink and worktop.
Can you match the sealant to my worktop?
Yes. We carry a range of colours and can match from our colour charts so the bead blends in with the worktop or tiles.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. The old bead is always cut out first, otherwise the new sealant will not bond and will fail quickly.
Do you do kitchen sealant in new builds?
Yes. We seal kitchens plot by plot for housebuilders and developers as well as for homeowners and landlords.
