Bathroom resealing in Addiscombe, done properly
A reseal only lasts if the joint is properly prepared. Every bit of old silicone comes out, down to the thin film left on the tiles, then the joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. We work on wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & upstands, and common reasons people get in touch are water getting behind the bath panel and a bead that has pulled away from the tiles.
Across London, a large share of homes are flats, conversions or mansion blocks, and many bathrooms sit right above someone else’s ceiling. That makes worn sealant and cracked grout in Addiscombe more than a cosmetic job.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Common problems we fix in Addiscombe
Sealing over old silicone is one of the commonest mistakes we find. Fresh silicone can’t grip the old bead underneath, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
If you live in an older home near St Mildred's Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
What to look for in a quote
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Whether VAT is included
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Which colour the sealant will be
Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
Keep bottles and razors off the sealant line, because they trap water against the silicone. A quick squeegee after showering helps the joint dry.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, where it can make the board swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.
How we quote for bathroom resealing
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The product the joint needs
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The old material and how stubborn it is
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- The type of property
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Whether it has been sealed before
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Should I try it myself first?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Why deal with it now?
A failed joint gets more costly to put right the longer it’s left. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, turning a small job into a building repair. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, so a small leak from tired sealant can mean a neighbour’s ceiling and a lot of disruption. Dealing with it early is far simpler.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Addiscombe questions
Is parking an issue for bathroom resealing in Addiscombe?
It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.
I let a flat near Norwood Junction station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No. Sealing over the top looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts. We remove the old bead completely before resealing.
What colours of sealant can you use?
You are not limited to white: white, clear and colours to suit tiles and worktops. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
Do you work in Addiscombe?
Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland, Addiscombe included.
How do I get a quote for bathroom resealing in Addiscombe?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can get on with your day. The job generally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. In Addiscombe, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Bathrooms and kitchens in Addiscombe
London’s water is hard, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, which is why it’s worth fixing early.
If you let a flat or house near Norwood Junction station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. Addiscombe is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.
