Bromley Cross Bathroom Resealing
Professional bathroom resealing in and around Bromley Cross, with old sealant always removed completely.
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
Surface by surface
Wet rooms
Wet room floors move slightly as they’re used, so the corners need a flexible seal, not grout. Cracked grout in a corner can be cut out and replaced with silicone.
Sinks & splashbacks
The edge of an inset sink is a common place for water to get under the worktop. We reseal the visible edge of the sink where it has failed.
How we handle bathroom resealing in Bromley Cross
Kitchens need the same care as bathrooms. Worktop upstands, sink edges and splashback joints get wet every single day, and water that gets into the back edge of a worktop can swell the board. Kitchen joints get a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows. If you have gaps between the worktop and the wall and new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting, we can help, on basins & vanity units, baths and sinks & splashbacks alike.
Around Bromley Cross, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Your questions about bathroom resealing in Bromley Cross
Can you do bathroom resealing in Bromley Cross?
Yes, Bromley Cross is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Do you cover smaller places like Bromley Cross?
Yes, Bromley Cross is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
How long does it take to reseal a bath or shower?
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 work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels across Essex.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes. Once mould has grown into the silicone, it normally can’t be cleaned out for good, so we cut it out, treat the joint and reseal with anti-fungal silicone.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
The surface skins over fairly quickly, but the bead needs longer to cure right through. Keep water off it for around 24 hours, or as long as we advise for that product.
Bathroom resealing in Bromley Cross: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

What we’re called out for in Bromley Cross
Sealant laid on a damp, dusty or greasy joint never bonds properly. Traces of soap, bath oil and old sealant stop it gripping, so a rushed job can start to lift early.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
Homes close to Church of St Anne and St Lawrence include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
What your quote should include
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- How long the guarantee is
- Who turns up on the day
How we quote for bathroom resealing
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- The type of sealant required
- Whether the work is at height
- Any mould that needs treating
- Any working-time requirements on site
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Roughly how big the job is
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- A few photos by email, if you can
For a quote, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. We will send you a clear quote before any work starts.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Do not leave water standing on kitchen joints
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, which is normally around 24 hours. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.
Do not wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will quote.
When it isn’t the sealant
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Failed grout lines across the wall
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we do, step by step
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Somewhere like Bromley Cross needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- 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.
- 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.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
