About our bathroom resealing in Ham
Resealing is a small job that makes a big difference. Black, patchy sealant makes clean tiles look tired, and a neat new joint puts that right in a short visit. Just as important, it closes the gaps water would otherwise get through. If you have water getting behind the bath panel and cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone, we can put it right.
In much of London, period terraces have been converted into flats over the years, with bathrooms fitted into whatever space was available. A compact bathroom that steams up every day is hard on silicone and grout, and homes in Ham are no different.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee.

Ham homes and their sealant
London has hard water, 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, which is why it’s worth fixing early.
For landlords with property near Teddington station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. In the older streets around Ham Christian Centre, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
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 fails, we can still redo it.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Do not leave water standing on kitchen joints
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
Worktop joints fail quietly. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, and the board underneath can swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.
Signs you need bathroom resealing in Ham
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. Fresh silicone cannot grip the old bead underneath, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
Schools such as Meadlands Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

How the job changes by surface
Wet rooms
If a wet room leaks, the cause may be the tanking or the drain rather than the joints. We check the joints and say so if the fault looks to be elsewhere.
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.

What else we do in Ham
Why deal with it now?
Fresh sealant smartens a bathroom or kitchen with very little disruption, which helps when a home is being let or put on the market. A smeared, uneven DIY bead does the opposite. 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. Dealing with it early is far simpler for homes in Ham.

What happens on the day
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is for a typical job. In a London area like Ham, the main things to plan are parking and access: let us know about parking, the floor we will be working on and any lift or shared entrance.
- We cover the area around the joints we are working on.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

FAQs for Ham
I let a flat near Teddington station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Ham?
In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot, so mention what’s available when you book.
How long will the resealing take?
It depends on how many joints there are and how much old sealant has to come out. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then a colour-matched bead is laid.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
White and clear are the most common choices, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Tell us what you’d like when you get in touch.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes. Our one-year guarantee covers every job, and we’re fully insured.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll explain our choice.
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
