Bath resealing near Kingsland

About our bath resealing in Kingsland

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We are often asked to fix stained silicone and water getting behind the bath or tray, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

FAQs for Kingsland

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

How long will it take?

Generally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Why it’s worth resealing in Kingsland

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

How it works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common problems we fix in Kingsland

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Black mould in the sealant

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What prep work is covered
  • What protection goes down before work starts
