About our bathroom resealing in Streatham Hill
Homes in Streatham Hill have the same weak spots as anywhere else: the long edge of the bath, the base of the shower tray, the back of the basin and the line along the worktop. Every joint is cut out, cleaned and left dry before it’s resealed. If you have water getting behind the kitchen upstand and failed sealant on the screen profile, we can put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units alike.
In much of London, period terraces have been converted into flats over the years, and bathrooms were often squeezed into small rooms. A compact bathroom that steams up every day is hard on silicone and grout, and homes in Streatham Hill are no different.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Streatham Hill and everywhere else we cover.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Streatham Hill
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’s water is hard, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Letting a property close to Streatham Hill station? Then mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. If you live in an older home near Church of St Margaret, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

How the job changes by surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Water behind a laminate worktop can make the edge swell. A continuous bead along the back keeps water out.
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, finished in a colour that suits the basin.
Leave it or put it right?
Dealing with sealant early is a short job: it takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Wait for a leak and you may be looking at panels off, drying out and redecorating too. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in Streatham Hill, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.

Streatham Hill: your questions answered
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Streatham Hill?
It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Streatham Hill?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and the location, plus photos if you have them. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
What colours of sealant can you use?
We can use white, clear or a colour to suit. On a worktop we colour-match where the joint shows.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. Allow a couple of hours for a typical bath or shower.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?
Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then a colour-matched bead is laid.
Can you just seal over the old silicone?
No, never. Sealing over the top looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts, because silicone doesn’t bond to silicone. We remove the old bead completely before resealing.
Common problems we fix in Streatham Hill
Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, and a joint that looked fine soon begins to come away.
The most common problems we see are:
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
As a London address, Streatham Hill can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- How long the guarantee is
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why

How we quote for bathroom resealing
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The amount of work
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
Helping us quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- The address or postcode of the job
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- How we’d reach the joints
We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and describe the job.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Baths
What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Streatham Hill. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
