DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
About our bathroom resealing in Spitalfields
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. Quick jobs often leave it out, and it makes a real difference. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are water getting behind the bath panel and a bead that has pulled away from the tiles.
Across London, a large share of homes are flats, conversions or mansion blocks, so a bathroom is often directly above a neighbour’s ceiling. In Spitalfields, that’s a good reason to put tired sealant and grout right early.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Letting agents and landlords in Spitalfields can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
What bathroom resealing looks like in Spitalfields
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Spitalfields. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. London’s water is hard, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you look after a building such as Makers Academy, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Homes close to Christ Church include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Questions from Spitalfields
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Spitalfields?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Is parking an issue for bathroom resealing in Spitalfields?
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.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes. The old sealant comes out, the mould is treated, and we reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we are done.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
Clean the silicone with care: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Left alone, it soaks into the floor, the wall behind the tiles or the ceiling below. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.

How the job changes by surface
Basins & vanity units
On a basin, neatness shows: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, finished in a colour that suits the basin.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
The joint between worktop and wall takes splashes, crumbs and cleaning sprays. We seal them in a colour that suits the worktop, so the line does not stand out.
When to call us in Spitalfields
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.
People normally contact us when they notice one of these:
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
Spitalfields is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

What happens on the day
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. For a job in Spitalfields, parking and access are the things to plan: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we are working on and whether there’s a lift.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
