Bathroom resealing in RM6: how it works
Homes in RM6 have the same weak spots as anywhere else: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Each one is stripped, cleaned and dried before new silicone goes in. We work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & upstands and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are a bead that has pulled away from the tiles and leaks into the floor or ceiling below.
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can get on with your day. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers, and we explain the cure time before we leave.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
How we quote
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What you get with us
- We are fully insured
- Tidy, careful work
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- Every job guaranteed for a year

Bathrooms and kitchens across RM6
Our bathroom resealing work across RM6 covers homes, rentals and businesses, in Goodmayes, Little Heath and Chadwell Heath and well beyond. The method is the same everywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.
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.
Little Heath: For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Grove 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. Rented homes near Chadwell Heath station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.
Why act early?
A quick bead over the top of the old one might look better for a while, but it cannot stick to what’s underneath. Water creeps under it and mould follows, so the next person has twice as much to remove.

Surface by surface
Basins & vanity units
Basins take less water than showers, but the joint behind them is splashed every day. Corners behind basins are where mould tends to start, so it’s cut out and renewed just like a bath joint.
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.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
If you manage several properties in or around RM6, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and photos by email help.
Why it fails
Baths and trays move. An acrylic bath flexes under load, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
What sealant work can’t fix
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- A bath or tray that moves because it isn’t properly supported
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
- Failed grout lines across the wall
RM6: your questions answered
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for 12 months. Looking after the joint as we suggest helps it last.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and the location, plus photos if you have them. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
We give you the cure time before we leave, and it’s normally around 24 hours. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.
Do you work in RM6?
Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland, RM6 included.
Can you just seal over the old silicone?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old sealant comes out first.
