Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Hackney Wick
We fill the bath before sealing it. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the bead isn’t stretched the first time someone gets in. Quick jobs often leave it out, and it makes a real difference. Common call-outs are for damp behind the bath or under the tray and failed sealant on the screen profile, across sinks & splashbacks, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & upstands.
Hard London water leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps alike. In Hackney Wick, bathroom resealing is as much about a room looking cared for as about keeping water out.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Hackney Wick and across Greater London.

What we can’t put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- A bath or tray that moves because it isn’t properly supported
- A tray or bath that’s cracked through
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

How the visit works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it normally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. In Hackney Wick, flats, stairs and shared entrances are part of the routine. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents when you book.
- 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.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Advice
Hackney Wick homes and their sealant
London’s water is hard, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings. In a London flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal can reach the neighbours below, so tired sealant is best dealt with early.
As a London address, Hackney Wick can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. In the older streets around St Mary of Eton, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

FAQs for Hackney Wick
I live in a flat in Hackney Wick. Can a failed seal leak into the flat below?
Yes. In a flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal has only one way to go, and that is down. A proper reseal before the leak starts is the easy fix.
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Hackney Wick?
Parking in Hackney Wick, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run more smoothly.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
A single bath or shower takes about a couple of hours, including cutting out the old sealant. A whole bathroom plus the kitchen may take most of the day.
Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?
Yes. Where it’s needed by the sink, we use a food-safe sealant.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Common problems we fix in Hackney Wick
Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Traces of soap, bath oil and old sealant stop it gripping, and a joint that looked fine soon begins to come away.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
Schools such as Mossbourne Riverside Academy are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Questions to ask before booking
- Are they insured?
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
Landlord and commercial work in Hackney Wick
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Different surfaces, different methods
Sinks & splashbacks
Splashbacks in glass, tile or acrylic meet the worktop in a long joint. We renew it in clear, white or a matched colour.
Wet rooms
Not every wet room leak is a sealant problem. We reseal the joints and will tell you if the water seems to be coming from somewhere else.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
