Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Hillingdon, Greater London
We travel to Hillingdon for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hidden water damage
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
How we handle bath resealing in Hillingdon
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for silicone coming away from the tiles and damp near the bath, on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
If you manage property in Hillingdon, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
What bath resealing costs
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to about two hours for a bath, including clearing up.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- 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.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Hillingdon: your questions answered
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you cover the whole of Greater London?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Open a window after bathing
- Dry the seal after bathing
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
