About bathroom resealing in SE19

A fresh bead of silicone changes how a bathroom looks more than most people expect. Black, patchy sealant makes clean tiles look tired, and a clean white or clear joint fixes it quickly. Just as important, it closes the gaps water would otherwise get through. We work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & upstands and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are leaks into the floor or ceiling below and shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop.

Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. It usually takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower.

  1. We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
  2. Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
  3. Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
  4. New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
  5. Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.

Bathroom resealing across SE19: local notes

Homes across SE19 range from older properties to new builds, and in places like West Norwood, Upper Norwood and Norwood New Town there’s plenty of rented property too. Bathroom resealing keeps bathrooms and kitchens watertight and looking cared for.

London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outdoor sealant still needs a dry day and clean surfaces, so outside work in SE19 is planned around the forecast.

West Norwood: West Norwood is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. For landlords with property near West Norwood station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

Common problems we fix in SE19

Sealing over old silicone is one of the commonest mistakes we find. Fresh silicone cannot grip the old bead underneath, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A joint torn by a bath that flexes
  • Water escaping at the shower enclosure
  • A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
  • Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off

Surface by surface

Sinks & splashbacks

Where a splashback meets the worktop, there’s a joint that catches every splash. We renew it in clear, white or a matched colour.

Baths

Baths move more than any other fitting, so it’s filled with water before the bead goes on. The joint is then laid with the bath at its lowest point.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

How to look after the new joints

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
  • Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
  • Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
  • Dry the bead with a towel now and then

Check the sealant now and then. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, and if anything looks wrong, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Resealing early stops it.
