DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Bathroom resealing in Picketts Lock
Resealing is a small job that makes a big difference. Mouldy silicone makes even a new bathroom look neglected, and a clean white or clear joint fixes it quickly. It also seals the gaps that let water behind the bath. If you are dealing with shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop and a bead that has pulled away from the tiles, we can put it right.
Across London, a large share of homes are flats, conversions or mansion blocks, and many bathrooms sit right above someone else’s ceiling. In Picketts Lock, that is a good reason to put tired sealant and grout right early.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Surface by surface
Basins & vanity units
Basin joints are short and close to eye level: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, in white, clear or a colour to suit.
Shower trays & enclosures
If a tray moves underfoot, new silicone will not last. Movement is checked before anything is resealed, and if the tray needs refixing, we’ll say so.

FAQs for Picketts Lock
I let a flat near Ponders End station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is parking an issue for bathroom resealing in Picketts Lock?
London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.
My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?
Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so we cut it out, treat the joint and reseal with anti-fungal silicone.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
What information do you need?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Can you just seal over the old silicone?
No. It’s a common reason for reseals failing. We cut out all of the old sealant, clean the joint and start again.

The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself normally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom, depending on how much there is to do. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents when you book.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
How to prepare
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Picketts Lock
Baths and trays move. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, and a tray that isn’t fully bedded can rock. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.
The most common problems we see are:
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
As a London address, Picketts Lock can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Picketts Lock
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. 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.
Schools such as Delta Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For an older house near a landmark such as All Saints' Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, which is normally around 24 hours. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.
Don’t wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
What affects the quote in Picketts Lock
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How many areas need sealing
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Mould in or behind the old joints
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
