Leave it or put it right?
A clean new bead makes a room look cared for, which matters if you’re letting a property or selling it. Lumpy sealant with smears on the tiles has the opposite effect. Around Cold Harbour, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Bathroom resealing in Cold Harbour, done properly
The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, shower trays & enclosures and sinks & splashbacks, and common reasons people get in touch are water getting behind the bath panel and cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone.
Somewhere as small as Cold Harbour, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Working hours on commercial sites
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

What happens on the day
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. Somewhere as small as Cold Harbour, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Cold Harbour
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around Church of St Lawrence, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Rented homes near Charing station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

FAQs for Cold Harbour
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Charing station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Will you come out to Cold Harbour?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No, never. Sealing over the top looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts. We remove the old bead completely before resealing.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes, by replacing the sealant. Sprays can fade the marks, but cutting it out and resealing is what lasts. Airing the room well helps stop it returning.
What sealant do you use?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.

Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Do not leave water standing on kitchen joints
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, which is generally around 24 hours. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.
Watch for the early signs: lifting ends, gaps, dark shadows under the bead or a stain downstairs. Any of these means the joint needs attention.
Different surfaces, different methods
Baths
Most bath leaks begin along the long edge, especially under a shower. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone.
Shower trays & enclosures
If a tray moves underfoot, new silicone won’t last. Movement is checked before anything is resealed, and if the tray needs refixing, we’ll say so.
