Bath Resealing in Wanstead
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Wanstead, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Black mould in the sealant
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Bath resealing in Wanstead, done in place
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are old sealant that looks dirty and leaks at the edges.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Wanstead: your questions answered
Do you cover the whole of Greater London?
Everywhere in the UK, Wanstead included. Travel is included in the price.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Wanstead, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
