Bath Resealing for Canonbury homes
Bath resealing across Canonbury and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black mould in the sealant
Why it’s worth resealing in Canonbury
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Bath resealing at your home in Canonbury
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are gaps in the seal and black mould in the sealant.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Canonbury: your questions answered
How long will it take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Are there extra charges for Canonbury?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How we price bath resealing
We charge the same across the UK, including Canonbury. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

For anyone letting property in or around Canonbury, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Open a window after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Hidden water damage
- Hollow or loose tiles
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for around two hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
