Ram Lane Bathroom Resealing
Bathroom resealing for Ram Lane and the surrounding area: the right sealant, proper preparation and a neat finish. Call for a quick quote.
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
What the job involves on each surface
Wet rooms
A wet room floor and its walls can move independently, so the internal corners need silicone rather than grout. Cracked grout in a corner can be cut out and replaced with silicone.
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.
About our bathroom resealing in Ram Lane
The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it into walls, panels and floors. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We’re often asked to deal with shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop and new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting, across shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & upstands and sinks & splashbacks.
For a small place like Ram Lane, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Ram Lane
Sealant laid on a damp, dusty or greasy joint never bonds properly. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, and a joint that looked fine soon begins to come away.
People normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Water getting behind the bath panel
If you let a flat or house near Charing station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.
What your quote should include
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are

Common questions in Ram Lane
Do you work for landlords with property near Charing station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Is Ram Lane in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Ram Lane is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Should I try DIY first?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it peels away and hides mould and water. All the old sealant comes out first.
Is it messy?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
How do I get a quote for bathroom resealing in Ram Lane?

Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
Keep water off the new bead until it has cured, which is normally around 24 hours. After that, a quick wipe after showering helps keep it clean.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
What bathroom resealing looks like in Ram Lane
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Managing a site like The Hayesbrook School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

The process
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Somewhere like Ram Lane needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
