DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
About our bath resealing in Isle of Dogs
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We’re often asked to fix a messy previous reseal and black mould in the sealant, on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

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, so the joint is at its widest.
Common problems we fix in Isle of Dogs
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Look out for these signs:
- Unsealed corners
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty
Before booking anyone
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- When it can be used again
- How the room is protected while they work
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Use the extractor fan
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Air the room after use
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Isle of Dogs: your questions answered
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Isle of Dogs and the rest of Greater London. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you cover the entire of Greater London?
All of Greater London, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
How we price bath resealing
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs 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 price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your E14 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Resealing in Isle of Dogs: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
