Bathroom resealing in EC2M: how it works
A shower joint gets soaked every day. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. Typical jobs include black spots spreading through the bead and a reseal done over the top of the old bead, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and sinks & splashbacks.
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it generally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

Bathrooms and kitchens across EC2M
From EC2M to its smaller places, homes across EC2M have bathrooms and kitchens of every age. Family bathrooms, rented flats and hotel en suites all need their sealant and grout renewing in time.
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings. Whatever the job in EC2M, surfaces are cleaned back properly before new sealant goes in.
City of London: Letting a property close to London Cannon Street station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. If you look after a building such as Fashion Retail Academy, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
Different surfaces, different methods
Shower trays & enclosures
The vertical joint where a screen profile meets the wall is a common leak point. It’s resealed along with the tray joints, following the enclosure maker’s guidance on which side to seal.
Sinks & splashbacks
Water getting under the rim of an inset sink can soak the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.
Why act early?
Fresh sealant smartens a bathroom or kitchen with very little disruption, which helps when a home is being let or put on the market. A smeared, uneven DIY bead does the opposite, and it’s harder to put right later.

What we are called out for in EC2M
The wrong product fails fast. Decorators’ caulk and all-purpose sealants are not made for constant wetting, 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:
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether the work is at height
- The type of sealant required
- The size of the job
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, please include:
- How we’d reach the joints
- Roughly how big the job is
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved.

Questions from EC2M
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
After around 24 hours in most cases. We’ll tell you the cure time for the product we used.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses.
Do you work in EC2M?
We do. EC2M is part of the area we cover.
My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?
Yes. The old sealant comes out, the mould is treated, and we reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No, and it’s one of the main reasons reseals fail. The old joint is stripped, cleaned and resealed from scratch.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
