Our bathroom resealing service in NW3
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, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. New silicone goes on only when the joint is fully dry. We work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & upstands and baths, and people most often call us about gaps where the bath or tray has moved and cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone.
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a couple of hours for a single bath or shower.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.

Around Hampstead
Typical jobs here are in homes near Fitzjohn's Primary School, St John-at-Hampstead church and South Hampstead High School. You will also find Kilburn Grange Park (1 mile south-west), St Anthony's Preparatory School (under half a mile east), Cecil Sharp House (1.7 miles south-east) and King William IV Public House (less than half a mile north-east).

The countryside around Hampstead includes Belsize Wood and The Long Water.
Bathrooms and kitchens across NW3
Across NW3, from Hampstead, West Hampstead and Kentish Town outwards, we see bathrooms and kitchens of every age. Sealant and grout wear out in all of them, whether it’s a family bathroom, a rented flat or a hotel en suite.
London and the South East have homes from every era, from period terraces to post-war new towns and new estates. Each needs the right sealant for its age and materials, wherever it is in NW3.
Hampstead: For landlords with property near Finchley Road & Frognal station, 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 Fitzjohn's Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
Clean the silicone with care: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.
Small signs come before a leak: lifting ends, gaps, dark shadows under the bead or a stain downstairs. Any of these means the joint needs attention.
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
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 does not work out, we can still put it right.
How we quote for bathroom resealing
You’ll get a clear quote before we start. It takes into account:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The size of the job
- How easy the joints are to reach
- When we can work, for business premises
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- The rough size of the job
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Why act early?
A clean new bead makes a room look cared for, which matters if you’re letting a property or selling it. A smeared, uneven DIY bead does the opposite.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- How much experience the applicator has
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What insurance they hold
Surface by surface
Sinks & splashbacks
Splashbacks in glass, tile or acrylic meet the worktop in a long joint. We renew it in clear, white or a matched colour.
Baths
The long joint down the side of a bath is where most leaks start, especially under a shower. It gets one smooth bead of anti-fungal silicone, tooled so water cannot sit on it.
Common questions in NW3
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will tell you what we’re using.
Is white the only colour available?
There’s a choice: clear, white and colours chosen to suit the room. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
