How to look after the repair

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

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Bath resealing in Seven Sisters 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, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about damp near the bath and an untidy old seal.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

What we’re called out for in Seven Sisters

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Mould you cannot clean out

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlord and trade work in Seven Sisters

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

How we price bath resealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Common questions in Seven Sisters

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Seven Sisters?

We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How long before I can shower?

Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Do you cover Seven Sisters?

We do. We send a technician to Seven Sisters for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
