Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Do not let bottles sit on the bead
Do not stand bottles along the bead, because they trap water against the silicone. A quick squeegee after showering keeps water from sitting on the joint.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.
Bathroom resealing in Kingston Vale
Resealing is a small job that makes a big difference. Black, patchy sealant makes clean tiles look tired, and a clean white or clear joint fixes it quickly. It also seals the gaps that let water behind the bath. We’re often asked to deal with a reseal done over the top of the old bead and a bead that has pulled away from the tiles, on basins & vanity units, sinks & splashbacks and kitchen worktops & upstands.
Much of London’s older housing is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many of them now split into flats, and bathrooms were often squeezed into small rooms. A compact bathroom that steams up every day is hard on silicone and grout.
Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee.

Different surfaces, different methods
Wet rooms
Wet rooms rely on sound joints at floor and wall junctions. They get anti-fungal sanitary silicone, and our work is on the visible joints only.
Basins & vanity units
Basins take less water than showers, but the joint behind them is splashed every day. Old sealant there often goes black at the corners, and we treat it exactly as we would a bath.
How the visit works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower in most cases. In a London area like Kingston Vale, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we are working on and whether there’s a lift.
- We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
Ask for a quote
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Kingston Vale
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. Kingston Vale has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
As a London address, Kingston Vale can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. In the older streets around St John the Baptist, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Why act early in Kingston Vale
Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it will not bond. Water creeps under it and mould follows. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Putting it right early is much less trouble for homes in Kingston Vale.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

Common problems we fix in Kingston Vale
The wrong product fails fast. Decorators’ caulk and all-purpose sealants aren’t made for constant wetting, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. Wet areas call for a sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive.
Look out for these signs:
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Robin Hood 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.
Before you book anyone
