Bathroom resealing in Isle of Dogs, done properly
Across Isle of Dogs, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: the long edge of the bath, the base of the shower tray, the back of the basin and the line along the worktop. Every joint is cut out, cleaned and left dry before it’s resealed. We work on shower trays & enclosures, sinks & splashbacks and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are leaks into the floor or ceiling below and lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt.
Hard London water leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps alike. In Isle of Dogs, bathroom resealing is as much about a room looking cared for as about keeping water out.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Isle of Dogs as everywhere else we work.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- When we can work, for business premises
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.
Asking for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and describe the job.

Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the bead dries out between uses.
Don’t wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
Why act early in Isle of Dogs
Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it won’t bond. Water creeps under it and mould follows, so the next person has twice as much to remove. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in Isle of Dogs, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

Common problems we fix in Isle of Dogs
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.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
In the older streets around Church of St Nicholas, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
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.

Common questions in Isle of Dogs
Is parking an issue for bathroom resealing in Isle of Dogs?
Parking in Isle of Dogs, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run more smoothly, so mention what’s available when you book.
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Isle of Dogs?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we’re fully insured too.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for 12 months. Looking after the joint as we suggest helps it last.
Is white the only colour available?
Most people choose white or clear, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How long will the resealing take?
One bath or shower is around two hours’ work, old sealant removal included. A whole bathroom plus the kitchen may take most of the day.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Isle of Dogs
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.
Letting a property close to Greenwich station? Then mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. Managing a site like Harbinger Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

How the visit works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it generally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. In a London area like Isle of Dogs, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we’re working on and whether there’s a lift.
- 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.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
Before we arrive
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
