About our bathroom resealing in Seven Kings

Before a bath is sealed, it’s filled with water. A full bath sits slightly lower than an empty one, so the bead isn’t stretched the first time someone gets in. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. We work on shower trays & enclosures, sinks & splashbacks and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are a bead that has pulled away from the tiles and gaps where the bath or tray has moved.

In much of London, period terraces have been converted into flats over the years, with bathrooms fitted into whatever space was available. A compact bathroom that steams up every day is hard on silicone and grout, and homes in Seven Kings are no different.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

What happens if it’s left?

Tired sealant isn’t a reason to replace a bath or shower. A new bead often brings the whole room back. If something else is wrong, we will tell you. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in Seven Kings, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.

We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

Can I do it myself?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

What we’re called out for in Seven Kings

With age, silicone loses its stretch. In kitchens it often shrinks away from the back edge, opening a hairline gap that lets water and crumbs in. Hot pans and harsh cleaners do not help.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Mouldy sealant that has gone black
  • Water getting behind the bath panel
  • A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
  • Gaps where the bath or tray has moved

Seven Kings is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:

  • The product the joint needs
  • Whether the work is at height
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • Working hours on commercial sites

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

What we need to know

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:

  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • Roughly how big the job is

It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What the job involves on each surface

Baths

Acrylic baths give a little under load, and even steel and cast iron baths settle slightly when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.

Wet rooms

Not every wet room leak is a sealant problem. We reseal the joints and will tell you if the water seems to be coming from somewhere else.

How it works

All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.

  1. Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
  2. We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
  3. Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
  5. We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Your questions about bathroom resealing in Seven Kings

Do you work for landlords with property near Seven Kings station?

Could a tired shower seal in my Seven Kings flat affect the neighbours below?

Yes, and the first sign is often a stain on the ceiling below. A proper reseal before the leak starts is the easy fix.

Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?

No. Fresh silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so it peels away and hides mould and water. We always take the old sealant out completely.

Should I try DIY first?

That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we are fully insured.

Where do you work from?

We are a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

How long will the resealing take?

That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
