Bathroom resealing for North Ockendon homes and businesses

Can I do it myself?

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.

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.

How we handle bathroom resealing in North Ockendon

A reseal only lasts if the joint is properly prepared. The old sealant is removed to the last smear, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. If you have gaps where the bath or tray has moved and smears of silicone across the tiles, we can help.

Much of London’s older housing is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many of them now split into flats, with bathrooms fitted into whatever space was available. Small, steamy rooms are where mould gets into sealant and grout fastest.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.

North Ockendon questions

Is parking an issue for bathroom resealing in North Ockendon?

In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run more smoothly, so mention what’s available when you book.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Ockendon station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.

Do you guarantee your resealing?

Yes. All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, and we’re fully insured.

How long before the new sealant can get wet?

Silicone is touch-dry quite quickly, but it takes longer to cure. Leave it around 24 hours before it gets wet, or as long as we advise for that product.

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 we reseal in a colour to suit.

Do you work in North Ockendon?

Yes. We’re based in Crawley and work across South East England, London and Scotland.

How much does bathroom resealing cost in North Ockendon?

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing and where.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.

Bathroom resealing around North Ockendon

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. London has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

North Ockendon is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. For landlords with property near Ockendon station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary Magdalene, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Different surfaces, different methods

Sinks & splashbacks

Splashbacks in glass, tile or acrylic meet the worktop in a long joint. It’s resealed in white, clear or a colour to suit.

Basins & vanity units

On a basin, neatness shows: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, in white, clear or a colour to suit.

Leave it or put it right?

Most of the work in a good reseal happens before any silicone goes on: removing all the old sealant, degreasing the joint, treating mould and drying it properly. Skip those steps and even the best silicone fails early. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in North Ockendon, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

How the visit works

You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers for a typical job. For a job in North Ockendon, parking and access are the things to plan: let us know about parking, the floor we’ll be working on and any lift or shared entrance.

  1. We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
  2. We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
  4. A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
  5. Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any tricky access
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before

What sealant work can’t fix

We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
  • Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

What we seal

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Sinks & splashbacks
  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & upstands

How we quote for bathroom resealing

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:

  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • How much there is to do
  • Whether the work is at height

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

Asking for a quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

We quote each job on its own. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details, and pictures are welcome.
