Resealing in Peaks Hill: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Peaks Hill

Bath resealing in Peaks Hill without replacing anything
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We’re frequently asked to fix discoloured, yellow sealant and silicone coming away from the tiles, across basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Peaks Hill and across Greater London.

Common questions in Peaks Hill
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Peaks Hill?
We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Common problems we fix in Peaks Hill
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Black spots in the silicone
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Old sealant that looks dirty

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CR8 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Related advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A flexing bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Wet rooms
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
