Bathroom resealing for Chalk Farm homes and businesses

Common problems we fix in Chalk Farm

Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Steamy rooms that don’t dry out give mould all the damp it needs, and once it has grown into the bead, cleaning rarely gets it out.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • Damp behind the bath or under the tray
  • Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
  • New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
  • Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away

If you live in an older home near St Silas Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

What your quote should include

  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • What insurance they hold
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not
  • How much experience the applicator has

10 questions to ask before booking

Bathroom resealing in Chalk Farm, done properly

Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Trays, enclosures, screen profiles and wet room floors all need a flexible, waterproof seal. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. If you have splits where the tray meets the wall and sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away, we can help, whatever the surface.

Much of London’s older housing is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many of them now split into flats, and bathrooms were often squeezed into small rooms. A compact bathroom that steams up every day is hard on silicone and grout.

Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Chalk Farm questions

Is parking an issue for bathroom resealing in Chalk Farm?

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.

Could a tired shower seal in my Chalk Farm flat affect the neighbours below?

Yes, it can. Water that gets past failed sealant or cracked grout can run under the bath or tray and show up on the ceiling below. It’s far simpler to replace tired sealant early than to deal with a neighbour’s ceiling.

Is it messy?

We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you guarantee your resealing?

Yes, for 12 months. Good ventilation and gentle cleaning help it last.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

Will there be a smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Opening a window helps.

What information do you need?

A short description and the location, with photos by email if possible. If we need more, we will ask.

Landlord and commercial work in Chalk Farm

From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. We can quote for more than one property at once.

How we quote for bathroom resealing

You will get a clear quote before we start. It takes into account:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved

Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

Helping us quote

When you call or email, these details help:

  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • The type of property
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Where the property is

Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work and send you a clear quote.

Surface by surface

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Laminate worktops swell if water gets into the core. A sound joint along the back edge stops that, as long as the worktop itself is firmly fixed.

Sinks & splashbacks

Next to the sink, the sealant has to cope with constant water, and a food-safe product where it’s needed. The bead is finished smooth so it wipes clean.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:

  • Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
  • Failed grout lines across the wall
  • A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported

If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we seal

  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Kitchen worktops & upstands
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Sinks & splashbacks

Why deal with it now?

You do not need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. Replacing the joint is generally all it takes, provided the bath, tray and tiles are in good order. If we find a deeper problem, you will hear it from us. 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.

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

What you get with us

  • Arbo and Everbuild products
  • Tidy, careful work
  • Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
  • 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews

Bathrooms and kitchens in Chalk Farm

If you let a flat or house near Kentish Town West station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. Chalk Farm is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

What we do, step by step

We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower, and the area is left clean. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents when you book.

  1. We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
  2. We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
  4. New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
  5. Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

How to get a quote
