- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
Common problems we fix in West End
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary the Virgin, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Bathroom resealing in West End
Kitchens need the same care as bathrooms. The joint between worktop and wall, the edge of the sink and the bottom of the splashback get wet every single day, and water behind a laminate worktop can make it swell. We reseal them with a kitchen-suitable silicone, matched to the worktop where it’s on show. We work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & upstands, and the jobs we see most are failed sealant on the screen profile and water getting behind the kitchen upstand.
Being in a small place like West End makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

What happens if it’s left?
Dealing with sealant early is a short job: the work takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating. In a small place like West End, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
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 we start.

When something else is needed
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Do you cover West End for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and West End is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.

Yes. All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, and we’re fully insured.
Where are you based?
We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
How much does bathroom resealing cost in West End?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes. Once mould has grown into the silicone, it usually can’t be cleaned out for good, so the bead comes out, the joint is treated and new anti-fungal silicone goes in.
How long will the resealing take?
It depends on how many joints there are and how much old sealant has to come out. Allow a couple of hours for a typical bath or shower.

What the job involves on each surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Water behind a laminate worktop can make the edge swell. A continuous bead along the back keeps water out, as long as the worktop itself is firmly fixed.
Basins & vanity units
A vanity top has a joint along the wall and sometimes at the sides. Water that gets behind can damage the unit, so a neat, continuous bead matters.
What bathroom resealing looks like in West End
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Letting a property close to Hatfield station? Then mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. Schools such as Essendon CofE (VC) Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.
