When it is not the sealant
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before work begins. Sealant won’t put right:
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

How we handle bathroom resealing in Hadley Wood
A shower joint gets soaked every day. Trays, enclosures, screen profiles and wet room floors all need a flexible, waterproof seal. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. Common call-outs are for lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt and gaps between the worktop and the wall, on sinks & splashbacks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
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 Hadley Wood more than a cosmetic job.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

The process
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself usually takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen, depending on the amount of work. In a London area like Hadley Wood, the main things to plan are parking and access: let us know about parking, the floor we’ll be working on and any lift or shared entrance.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Advice
Why act early in Hadley Wood
A failed joint gets more costly to put right the longer it’s left. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, turning a small job into a building repair. In a flat in Hadley Wood, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- The size of the job
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
Helping us quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- The rough size of the job
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. Whenever you’re ready, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
Check the sealant now and then. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, and if anything looks wrong, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Worktop joints fail quietly. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, and the board underneath can swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.

Your questions about bathroom resealing in Hadley Wood
Is parking a problem for a job in Hadley Wood?
It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.
I live in a flat in Hadley Wood. Can a failed seal leak into the flat below?
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.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
You’re not limited to white: white, clear and colours to suit tiles and worktops. We will talk it through when we quote.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?
Yes. Worktops, sinks and splashbacks are all part of the job, with a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows.

Bathroom resealing around Hadley Wood
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, so tired sealant is best dealt with early.
Rented homes near Hadley Wood station change hands often, and a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

Managing a site like Livingstone Primary and Nursery School? Then 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.

Different surfaces, different methods
Basins & vanity units
On a basin, neatness shows: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, finished in a colour that suits the basin.
Shower trays & enclosures
There are generally two jobs in a shower: the tray-to-wall joint and the enclosure joints. Both take water every day, so each is cut out and renewed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
