DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Bath resealing in Elephant and Castle, done in place
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Typical jobs include black mould in the sealant and leaks at the edges, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Common problems we fix in Elephant and Castle
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
People normally call us after spotting one of these:
- Stained silicone
- Unsealed corners
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Before you book anyone
- How the room is protected while they work
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Elephant and Castle. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SE1 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Use the extractor fan
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Why it’s worth resealing in Elephant and Castle
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive.
