- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
Keep bottles and razors off the sealant line, because they trap water against the silicone. Squeegeeing the walls and tray after use keeps water from sitting on the joint.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.
About our bathroom resealing in West Drayton
The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. Common call-outs are for mouldy sealant that has gone black and damp behind the bath or under the tray, on sinks & splashbacks, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & upstands.
Much of London’s older housing is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many of them now split into flats, and bathrooms were often squeezed into small rooms. Small, steamy rooms are where mould gets into sealant and grout fastest, and homes in West Drayton are no different.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

What bathroom resealing looks like in West Drayton
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 has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as West Drayton Academy, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Letting a property close to West Drayton station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

The process
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers for a typical job. In West Drayton, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.
- We cover the area around the joints we are working on.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
How to prepare
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Move anything stored near the joints

Your questions about bathroom resealing in West Drayton
I let a flat near West Drayton station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can worn sealant in a flat in West Drayton cause a leak downstairs?
It can, yes: water that gets past a split bead or cracked grout often runs under the tray and shows on the ceiling below. Replacing the sealant and grout before that happens is much less trouble than repairing a neighbour’s ceiling.
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.
What colours of sealant can you use?
You’re not limited to white: white, clear and colours to suit tiles and worktops. We will talk it through when we quote.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we are fully insured.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
After around 24 hours in most cases. You’ll get the exact cure time before we leave.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it peels away and hides mould and water. All the old sealant comes out first.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
What sealant work cannot fix
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- What’s wrong with the joints now

Do you need bathroom resealing in West Drayton?
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. Fresh silicone can’t grip the old bead underneath, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
In the older streets around Church of St Martin, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
Questions to ask before you book
- Is VAT in the price?
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
DIY versus a professional finish
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.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
What happens if it’s left?
Fresh sealant smartens a bathroom or kitchen with very little disruption, which matters if you are letting a property or selling it. Lumpy sealant with smears on the tiles has the opposite effect. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and once it shows in West Drayton, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts.
