How bathroom resealing works in CR5
Across CR5, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Each one is stripped, cleaned and dried before new silicone goes in. Typical jobs include water getting behind the bath panel and lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt, across kitchen worktops & upstands, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

Bathrooms and kitchens across CR5
CR5 has homes of every age, old and new, with plenty of rented property in places like Coulsdon, Purley and Old Coulsdon. Bathroom resealing keeps bathrooms and kitchens watertight and looking cared for.
Hard water across most of the South East leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings. Whatever the job in CR5, surfaces are cleaned back properly before new sealant goes in.
Coulsdon: Letting a property close to Coulsdon South station? Then mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. Schools such as Smitham Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Can I do it myself?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Quotes for bathroom resealing in CR5
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- When we can work, for business premises
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- How we’d reach the joints
- Where the property is
- The rough size of the job
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we’ll talk you through the work.
Different surfaces, different methods
Baths
Acrylic baths give a little under load, while steel and cast iron baths move less but still settle when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.
Wet rooms
Not every wet room leak is a sealant problem. We check the joints and say so if the fault looks to be elsewhere.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Leave it or put it right?
A quick bead over the top of the old one might look better for a while, but it can’t stick to what’s underneath. Water creeps under it and mould follows.
What your quote should include
- What the cure time is
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Which colour the sealant will be

Yes, we can. We strip the bead, treat the joint and lay new anti-fungal silicone.
