- Unsealed corners
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Silicone smeared on tiles
How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

About our bath resealing in Hendon
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you’re dealing with damp near the bath and silicone smeared on tiles, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Resealing in Hendon: why it matters
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hendon
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
What we are called out for in Hendon
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- Damp near the bath
- Gaps in the seal
- Unsealed corners
- Black spots in the silicone
Before booking anyone
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
- How changes to the job are handled
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hidden water damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
