Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Landlords and letting agents in Crystal Palace can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
How we handle bathroom resealing in Crystal Palace
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, finished smooth so water drains away rather than collecting. We work on baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about a joint torn by a bath that flexes and leaking joints on a shower screen.
Hard London water leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps alike. In Crystal Palace, bathroom resealing is as much about a room looking cared for as about keeping water out.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Common questions in Crystal Palace
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Crystal Palace?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Can worn sealant in a flat in Crystal Palace cause a leak downstairs?
Yes, and the first sign is often a stain on the ceiling below. A proper reseal before the leak starts is the easy fix.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
After around 24 hours in most cases. We’ll tell you the cure time for the product we used.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes. We strip the bead, treat the joint and lay new anti-fungal silicone.
What colours of sealant can you use?
White and clear are the most common choices, and other colours are available to suit tiles, trays and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No, and it’s one of the main reasons reseals fail. The old joint is stripped, cleaned and resealed from scratch.
How it works
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom in most cases. For a job in Crystal Palace, parking and access are the things to plan: let us know about parking, the floor we’ll be working on and any lift or shared entrance.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, usually after around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
How the job changes by surface
Baths
Acrylic baths flex the most, and even steel and cast iron baths settle slightly when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.
Basins & vanity units
Basins take less water than showers, but the joint behind them is splashed every day. Corners behind basins are where mould tends to start, so it’s cut out and renewed just like a bath joint.

Crystal Palace homes and their sealant
London has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps. 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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Crystal Palace School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. As a London address, Crystal Palace can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

What happens if it’s left?
The difference in a professional reseal is mostly what you don’t see: removing all the old sealant, degreasing the joint, treating mould and drying it properly. Skip those steps and even the best silicone fails early. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, following the cure time we give you. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.
Worktop joints fail quietly. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, and the board underneath can swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.
Do you need bathroom resealing in Crystal Palace?
With age, silicone loses its stretch. In kitchens it often shrinks away from the back edge, leaving a thin gap where water and food collect. Heat from the hob and strong sprays speed it along.
People generally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
If you let a flat or house near Crystal Palace station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
