Bathroom resealing in Upper Farringdon
Across Upper Farringdon, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: 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. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, sinks & splashbacks and wet rooms, and people most often call us about black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off and a reseal done over the top of the old bead.
Being in a small place like Upper Farringdon makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
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.
The process
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. It generally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. Somewhere like Upper Farringdon needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. 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.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear 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.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Honest limits
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before any work starts. Sealant won’t put right:
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
- A bath or tray that moves because it isn’t properly supported
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Wet rooms

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether the work is at height
- The amount of work
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

When you contact us, it’s useful to know:

- A few photos by email, if you can
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

Upper Farringdon questions
Do you cover Upper Farringdon for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Upper Farringdon is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you work for landlords with property near Alton station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we are using.
Can I do it myself?
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.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is generally more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
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.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
You are not limited to white: white, clear and colours to suit tiles and worktops. We will talk it through when we quote.
What we’re called out for in Upper Farringdon
The wrong product fails fast. Acrylic caulk and general-purpose sealants aren’t designed for a joint that’s wet every day, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. Wet areas call for a sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
Rented homes near Alton station change hands often, and a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

What happens if it’s left?
Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but where mould is inside the silicone it normally comes back. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Upper Farringdon, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
Keep water off the new bead until it has cured, following the cure time we give you. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.
Small signs come before a leak: lifting ends, gaps, dark shadows under the bead or a stain downstairs. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.
