Bath resealing in Hackney Central without replacing anything
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Typical jobs include mould you can’t clean out and unsealed corners, across wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Prices and what affects them
There’s no area surcharge for Hackney Central. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job without visiting.

Your questions about bath resealing in Hackney Central
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Usually after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.

- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Repairs by material
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Let steam out after showers
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the seal a regular clean
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
When to call us in Hackney Central
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Look out for any of the following:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Damp near the bath
What to look for in a quote
- What preparation is included
- If travel is included in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
- How the colour is matched

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
