Bathroom resealing across RM7: what to expect
Before a bath is sealed, it’s filled with water. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the new joint isn’t pulled apart the first time it’s used. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. We work on baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are smears of silicone across the tiles and water getting behind the kitchen upstand.
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we’re working on. The job normally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
- 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.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, generally after around 24 hours.

Bathrooms and kitchens across RM7
Homes across RM7 range from older properties to new builds, and in places like Romford, Dagenham and Collier Row there’s plenty of rented property too. Bathroom resealing keeps bathrooms and kitchens watertight and looking cared for.
From Victorian terraces to post-war new towns and modern estates, homes across the South East and London cover every era. Each needs the right sealant for its age and materials.
Rush Green: Managing a site like Rush Green Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Romford station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.
When it is not the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

What we are called out for in RM7
Sealing over old silicone is one of the commonest mistakes we find. Fresh silicone can’t grip the old bead underneath, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.
The most common problems we see are:
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- Water getting behind the bath panel
Why act early?
Tired sealant isn’t a reason to replace a bath or shower. Replacing the joint is generally all it takes, as long as the fittings themselves are sound. If something else is wrong, we will tell you.
