Bathroom Resealing in Falconwood
Problem with your baths, showers and worktops in Falconwood? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
Should I try it myself first?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
How we handle bathroom resealing in Falconwood
Before a bath is sealed, it’s filled with water. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the bead is not stretched the first time someone gets in. Quick jobs often leave it out, and it makes a real difference. We work on wet rooms, sinks & splashbacks and kitchen worktops & upstands, and common reasons people get in touch are a joint torn by a bath that flexes and leaking joints on a shower screen.
Across London, a large share of homes are flats, conversions or mansion blocks, so a bathroom is often directly above a neighbour’s ceiling. That makes worn sealant and cracked grout in Falconwood more than a cosmetic job.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Common problems we fix in Falconwood
Silicone doesn’t last for ever. Daily water, heat and cleaning products slowly wear it down, so its life depends on how the room is used, cleaned and aired.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
If you look after a building such as Bishop Ridley Church of England VA Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
Questions to ask before you book
- Which colour the sealant will be
- Whether VAT is included
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- When the joint can take water or movement
What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself usually takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom, depending on how much there is to do. In Falconwood, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
How to prepare
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Falconwood questions
Can worn sealant in a flat in Falconwood cause a leak downstairs?
Yes, and the first sign is often a stain on the ceiling below. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a new bead early stops it getting that far.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Welling station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
How long before the new sealant can get wet?
Around 24 hours is typical, and we confirm the time for the product used. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.
Do you guarantee your resealing?
Yes. We give a 12-month guarantee on every job, and we are fully insured.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?
Yes, by replacing the sealant. Cleaning products may lighten it, but the lasting fix is new anti-fungal silicone on a clean, treated joint. Airing the room well helps stop it returning.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

Yes. We cover Falconwood and the rest of Greater London, as part of our work across South East England, London and Scotland. To book, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Falconwood homes and their sealant
London’s water is hard, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, which is why it’s worth fixing early.
Falconwood is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. If you live in an older home near Bishop Ridley Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
Have a look at the joints every few months. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, and if anything looks wrong, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.
Surface by surface
Basins & vanity units
The back of a basin gets wet every time someone washes. Old sealant there often goes black at the corners, so it’s cut out and renewed just like a bath joint.
Sinks & splashbacks
Splashbacks in glass, tile or acrylic meet the worktop in a long joint. It’s resealed in white, clear or a colour to suit.
