Bath resealing in Greenwich, done in place
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. We are frequently asked to fix sealant that’s split or lifting and damp near the bath, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

FAQs for Greenwich
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How much does bath resealing cost in Greenwich?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Keep the joints dry
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Open a window after bathing
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A flexing bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
Why it’s worth resealing in Greenwich
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Greenwich
- We leave the room as we found it
- Work done at your home or business

- No need to remove anything
See our prices page.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SE10 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
