About our bathroom resealing in Bloomsbury
We fill the bath before sealing it. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the new joint is not pulled apart the first time it’s used. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. We’re often asked to deal with a joint torn by a bath that flexes and water getting behind the kitchen upstand, on wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures.
Hard London water leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps alike. For a bathroom or kitchen in Bloomsbury, getting the joints right keeps water where it belongs and the room looking clean.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Bloomsbury
London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, so tired sealant is best dealt with early. London has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you let a flat or house near London Euston station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. As a London address, Bloomsbury can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.
Bloomsbury is about 1 mile north-east of City of Westminster, in Greater London.

Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
Have a look at the joints every few months. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, so if something doesn’t look right, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Left alone, it soaks into the floor, the wall behind the tiles or the ceiling below. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.

What else we do in Bloomsbury
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
For anyone letting property in or around Bloomsbury, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and pictures by email help.
What happens if it’s left?
Most of the work in a good reseal happens before any silicone goes on: removing all the old sealant, degreasing the joint, treating mould and drying it properly. Without that preparation, the new bead won’t last. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

Take a look at what affects the cost and our reviews.
Do you need bathroom resealing in Bloomsbury?
With age, silicone loses its stretch. Along worktops it tends to pull back from the wall, leaving a thin gap where water and food collect. Hot pans and harsh cleaners don’t help.
Look out for any of the following:
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
In the older streets around St George the Martyr Holborn, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

How we quote for bathroom resealing
We do not publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- When we can work, for business premises
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The problem you’ve noticed
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Where the property is
Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we will take it from there.
Common questions in Bloomsbury
Can worn sealant in a flat in Bloomsbury cause a leak downstairs?
Yes. In a flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal has only one way to go, and that is down. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a new bead early stops it getting that far.
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Bloomsbury?
London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so the bead comes out, the joint is treated and new anti-fungal silicone goes in.
How long will the resealing take?
It depends on how many joints there are and how much old sealant has to come out. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we are fully insured.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we’ll quote it together.
The process
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- 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 are told the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Advice
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
