About our bathroom resealing in Upper Holloway

A reseal only lasts if the joint is properly prepared. Every bit of old silicone comes out, down to the thin film left on the tiles, then the joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould. New silicone goes on only when the joint is fully dry. If you’re dealing with water escaping at the shower enclosure and shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop, we can put it right, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & upstands and shower trays & enclosures alike.

London’s water is hard, so limescale builds up along sealant lines, in grout and on fittings. For a bathroom or kitchen in Upper Holloway, getting the joints right keeps water where it belongs and the room looking clean.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What affects the quote in Upper Holloway

There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:

  • When we can work, for business premises
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • The number and length of the joints

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

What to tell us for a quote

When you contact us, these details help:

  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Where the property is
  • If someone has resealed it before

Questions from Upper Holloway

Can worn sealant in a flat in Upper Holloway cause a leak downstairs?

Yes. In a flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal has only one way to go, and that is down. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a new bead early stops it getting that far.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Upper Holloway station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.

What do you need from me for a quote?

Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. We can talk about working times when we quote.

Does the resealing come with a guarantee?

Yes. All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, and we are fully insured.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.

Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?

Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so we cut it out, treat the joint and reseal with anti-fungal silicone.

Should I try it myself first?

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Upper Holloway homes and their sealant

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. In a London flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal can reach the neighbours below, which is why it’s worth fixing early.

If you live in an older home near St Andrew's Whitehall Park, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Rented homes near Upper Holloway station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

Upper Holloway is about 2 miles east of Hampstead, in Greater London. Jobs in Upper Holloway get the same care as everywhere else we work: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee. Upper Holloway is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we work.

What happens if it’s left?

Tired sealant is not a reason to replace a bath or shower. A new bead often brings the whole room back, provided the bath, tray and tiles are in good order. If something else is wrong, we will tell you. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in Upper Holloway, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.

The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Aftercare is simple:

  • Dry the bead with a towel now and then
  • Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
  • Keep bottles off the sealant line
  • Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead

Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the bead dries out between uses.

There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.

How the visit works

The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. The job normally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In a London area like Upper Holloway, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we are working on and whether there’s a lift.

  1. Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
  2. Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
  3. We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on

When to call us in Upper Holloway

Silicone doesn’t last for ever. Daily water, heat and cleaning products slowly wear it down, and how long it lasts comes down to use, cleaning and ventilation.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Damp behind the bath or under the tray
  • A joint torn by a bath that flexes
  • A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
  • Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off

As a London address, Upper Holloway can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

What your quote should include

  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not
  • What guarantee comes with the work
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • What insurance they hold

10 questions to ask before you book

Different surfaces, different methods

Sinks & splashbacks

Around the sink, we use a product suited to kitchens, and a food-safe product where it’s needed. The joint is laid neatly so it’s easy to wipe.

Basins & vanity units

Basins take less water than showers, but the joint behind them is splashed every day. Corners behind basins are where mould tends to start, and we treat it exactly as we would a bath.
