Bathroom resealing across SW5: what to expect
Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. Common call-outs are for two layers of silicone, both failing and a joint torn by a bath that flexes, across baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. The job generally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
What affects the price in SW5
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

Bathrooms and kitchens across SW5
In SW5, bathroom resealing takes in flats, houses, rentals and businesses, in West Brompton, Earl's Court and West Kensington and well beyond. Wherever the job is, all the old material comes out before anything new goes in.
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 SW5 is planned around the forecast.
West Brompton: As a London address, West Brompton can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. In the older streets around Church of St Luke, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

- Whether the work is at height
We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

What we are called out for in SW5
A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. An acrylic bath flexes under load, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.
People generally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
Clean the silicone with care: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
Worktop joints fail quietly. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, where it can make the board swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.
Landlords, agents and businesses in SW5
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will quote.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
How the job changes by surface
Baths
Most bath leaks begin along the long edge, particularly where there’s a shower over the bath. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone, tooled so water cannot sit on it.
Basins & vanity units
Vanity units have long, worktop-style joints against the wall. If water gets in, the cabinet underneath can swell, so the joint is sealed in one unbroken line.
Questions from SW5
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the cure time for the product we used.
What colours of sealant can you use?
White, clear and a range of colours are available. Where the joint is on show, we match it to the surface.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
Do you come to SW5?
Yes. We are based in Crawley and work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?
Yes. Kitchen joints get extra degreasing before the new bead goes on, then a colour-matched bead is laid.
