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 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

How we price bath resealing

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job without visiting.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Air the room after use

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Whitechapel: your questions answered

Are there extra charges for Whitechapel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Typically because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you cover the entire of Greater London?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

What we are called out for in Whitechapel

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

How to compare quotes

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Whitechapel. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Most jobs done in one visit

See our full price list.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A flexing bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
