Our bathroom resealing service in RM20
Sealant that’s mouldy, cracked or peeling shouldn’t be left until there’s a leak. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a photo of the joints, and we’ll give you a clear quote for bathroom resealing in RM20. We’re often asked to deal with black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off and a joint torn by a bath that flexes, on sinks & splashbacks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.
We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is.
- We cover the area around the joints we are working on.
- 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.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.

Bathrooms and kitchens across RM20
Across RM20, from Grays, South Stifford and Purfleet-on-Thames 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. The right sealant depends on the age and materials of the building, wherever it is in RM20.
West Thurrock: For site and facilities teams at buildings such as West Thurrock Academy, 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. If you let a flat or house near Chafford Hundred station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Different surfaces, different methods
Shower trays & enclosures
If a tray moves underfoot, new silicone will not last. Movement is checked before anything is resealed, and tell you if it needs re-bedding first.
Basins & vanity units
Basin joints are short and close to eye level: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, finished in a colour that suits the basin.
Common problems we fix in RM20
With age, silicone loses its stretch. Along worktops it tends to pull back from the wall, leaving a thin gap where water and food collect. Heat from the hob and strong sprays speed it along.
The most common problems we see are:
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- Black spots spreading through the bead
Leave it or put it right?
Tired sealant is not a reason to replace a bath or shower. Replacing the joint is usually all it takes, as long as the fittings themselves are sound. If something else is wrong, we’ll tell you.
Questions to ask before booking
- Is VAT in the price?
- How hidden problems are handled
- Which colour the sealant will be
- Who turns up on the day

- Any mould that needs treating
- The size of the job
- The number of rooms or windows

What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before we start.

Common questions in RM20
What colours of sealant can you use?
There’s a choice: clear, white and colours chosen to suit the room. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes, for 12 months. Looking after the joint as we suggest helps it last.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few pictures.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No, never. A bead laid over old silicone soon starts to come away. Every trace of the old bead is removed first.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
