How the job changes by surface
Basins & vanity units
On a basin, neatness shows: so we keep the line tidy and even, in white, clear or a colour to suit.
Wet rooms
Wet room floors move slightly as they’re used, so the internal corners need silicone rather than grout. Cracked grout in a corner can be cut out and replaced with silicone.
Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Coombe
Across Coombe, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Every joint is cut out, cleaned and left dry before it’s resealed. We work on basins & vanity units, sinks & splashbacks and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are a reseal done over the top of the old bead and cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone.
Across London, a large share of homes are flats, conversions or mansion blocks, so a bathroom is often directly above a neighbour’s ceiling. In Coombe, that is a good reason to put tired sealant and grout right early.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
In a kitchen, do not let water sit along the back of the worktop and keep hot pans off the bead. The drier the joint stays, the longer it lasts.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.
What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Whether the work is at height
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- A few pictures by email, if you can
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Coombe homes and their sealant
In a London flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal can reach the neighbours below, which is why it’s worth fixing early. London has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps.
As a London address, Coombe can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. If you let a flat or house near Norbiton station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

How it works
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. For a job in Coombe, parking and access are the things to plan: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we’re working on and whether there’s a lift.
- 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.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints

Advice
Why deal with it now?
Tired sealant is not a reason to replace a bath or shower. A new bead often brings the whole room back. If something else is wrong, we will tell you. Converted houses in London often have a bathroom above someone else’s living room, so a small leak from tired sealant can mean a neighbour’s ceiling and a lot of disruption. Putting it right early is much less trouble for homes in Coombe.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.
Why book with us
- 12-month guarantee on every job
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- 20+ years of sealant experience
- We never seal over old sealant

Coombe: your questions answered
I let a flat near Norbiton station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Could a tired shower seal in my Coombe flat affect the neighbours below?
Yes, and the first sign is often a stain on the ceiling below. A proper reseal before the leak starts is the easy fix.
Is white the only colour available?
Most people choose white or clear, and other colours are available to suit tiles, trays and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Let us know what needs doing and where. If we need more, we will ask.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing and where.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Signs you need bathroom resealing in Coombe
Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, so a rushed job can start to lift early.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
If you look after a building such as Coombe Hill Junior School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee
- Is VAT in the price?
- When the joint can take water or movement
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
