How we handle bath resealing in Clapham Junction
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

FAQs for Clapham Junction
How long will it take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
How long does silicone take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What we’re called out for in Clapham Junction
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- An untidy old seal
- Damp near the bath
Before booking anyone
- What preparation is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How your room will be protected
- How changes to the job are handled

What else we do in Clapham Junction
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How we price bath resealing
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
