Bath resealing in Knightsridge without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for unsealed corners and leaks at the edges, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- 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
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

When we’d advise against a repair

- Hidden water damage

- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
When to call us in Knightsridge
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Leaks at the edges
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
