Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Ham, Greater London

- Leaks at the edges
- Gaps in the seal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Bath resealing in Ham, done in place
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours. We work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are missing sealant behind the taps and silicone smeared on tiles.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Let steam out after showers
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A flexing bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Questions from Ham
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Do you come to Ham?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Ham and the rest of Greater London. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the curing time from us.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
