About our bathroom resealing in Thorington Street
A fresh bead of silicone changes how a bathroom looks more than most people expect. Mouldy silicone makes even a new bathroom look neglected, and a clean white or clear joint fixes it quickly. Just as important, it closes the gaps water would otherwise get through. We work on sinks & splashbacks, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about leaks into the floor or ceiling below and shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop.
Around Thorington Street, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
What the job involves on each surface
Sinks & splashbacks
Splashbacks in glass, tile or acrylic meet the worktop in a long joint. It’s resealed in white, clear or a colour to suit.
Basins & vanity units
On a basin, neatness shows: so we keep the line tidy and even, finished in a colour that suits the basin.
Thorington Street: your questions answered
Is bathroom resealing in Thorington Street guaranteed?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Can you do bathroom resealing in Thorington Street?
Yes, Thorington Street is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
A single bath or shower takes about a couple of hours, old sealant removal included. A full bathroom and kitchen can take most of a day.
Is white the only colour available?
You are not limited to white: white, clear and colours to suit tiles and worktops. We can help you pick when we quote.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes, regularly. We can quote for several properties at once.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No. Fresh silicone can’t stick to the old bead, so it peels away and hides mould and water. We always take the old sealant out completely.
When something else is needed
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

- Mould in or behind the old joints

- Any working-time requirements on site
- The type of sealant required

For landlords and businesses
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
What happens if it’s left?
Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. In a small place like Thorington Street, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear quote before work begins.

What happens on the day
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. In a small place like Thorington Street, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
