When to call us in North Kensington

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps in the seal

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether they match the colour on site

About our bath resealing in North Kensington

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Common call-outs are for gaps in the seal and leaks at the edges, in basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

  • Basins & vanity units
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Wet rooms

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our pricing.

What bath resealing costs

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

FAQs for North Kensington

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How long does resealing take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
