Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Waterloo, Greater London
Bath resealing for Waterloo, without a refit. Get a fixed quote from your pictures, then we come to you.
- A messy previous reseal
- Black mould in the sealant
- Leaks at the edges
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Bath resealing at your home in Waterloo
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s old sealant that looks dirty and gaps in the seal, we can normally put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Waterloo as everywhere else we work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, tidy-up included.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Hidden water damage
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Waterloo
- Wet rooms

Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- No need to remove anything
See our prices page.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Waterloo questions
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Greater London. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
