Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Cowley, Greater London
Our technicians come to Cowley for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Leaks at the edges
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Air the room after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Bath resealing in Cowley, done in place
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We’re frequently asked to fix gaps in the seal and black mould in the sealant, in basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Resealing in Cowley: why it matters
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 items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
What you get with us
- A fixed quote before you book
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Signs you need bath resealing in Cowley
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Before booking anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- If travel is included in the price

- What aftercare is recommended

Cowley questions
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We will give you the curing time.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Greater London.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
