About our bath resealing in West Norwood
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you’re dealing with damp near the bath and black mould in the sealant, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What a repair cannot fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Signs you need bath resealing in West Norwood
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone coming away from the tiles

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
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 typically cheaper.

FAQs for West Norwood
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
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.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Resealing in West Norwood: why it matters
Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
How we price bath resealing
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
