Bathroom resealing in Bromley
The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. Every bit of old silicone comes out, down to the thin film left on the tiles, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. New silicone goes on only when the joint is fully dry. If you’re dealing with failed sealant on the screen profile and two layers of silicone, both failing, we can put it right, on baths, wet rooms and sinks & splashbacks alike.
In much of London, period terraces have been converted into flats over the years, and bathrooms were often squeezed into small rooms. A compact bathroom that steams up every day is hard on silicone and grout, and homes in Bromley are no different.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Different surfaces, different methods
Sinks & splashbacks
Around the sink, we use a product suited to kitchens, including a food-safe sealant where that’s needed. The bead is finished smooth so it wipes clean.
Baths
Acrylic baths give a little under load, while steel and cast iron baths move less but still settle when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
- Failed grout lines across the wall
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
Where we work in Bromley
- Baths
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, which is usually around 24 hours. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.
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.
What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
You will get a clear quote before we start. It takes into account:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The size of the job
- Working hours on commercial sites
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- What’s wrong with the joints now
We do not publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
What else we do in Bromley
The process
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it usually takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. In Bromley, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any tricky access

Advice
Bathroom resealing in Bromley: local notes
In a London flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal can reach the neighbours below, which is why it’s worth fixing early. Bromley has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
Managing a site like St Mark's Church of England Primary School? Then 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 live in an older home near Church of St Peter and St Paul, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
Bromley is about 8 miles south-east of London, in Greater London. Homes, rented property, offices and hotels in Bromley can book us for bathroom resealing. The work is guaranteed for a year. Bromley is one of 764 places in Greater London we cover for bathroom resealing. For nearby work, see our London page.

Whether your property is on High Street, Church Road and St Paul's Square or a nearby road, our applicators can take on the job. You will find Bromley on the A222 and A223, which makes it straightforward to reach. Close by, we work in Sundridge (1 mile north-east), Plaistow (1 mile north), Bickley (1 mile east), Widmore (1 mile east) and Downham (2 miles north).

Around Bromley

Common problems we fix in Bromley
Sealant laid on a damp, dusty or greasy joint never bonds properly. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, so a rushed job can start to lift early.
The most common problems we see are:
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
Bromley is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

Common questions in Bromley
Can worn sealant in a flat in Bromley cause a leak downstairs?
Yes. In a flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal has only one way to go, and that is down. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a new bead early stops it getting that far.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Bromley South station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Where do you work from?
Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
Generally after around 24 hours. You’ll get the exact cure time before we leave.
Can you just seal over the old silicone?
No, never. A bead laid over old silicone soon starts to come away, because silicone does not bond to silicone. Every trace of the old bead is removed first.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Is white the only colour available?
We can use white, clear or a colour to suit. On a worktop we colour-match where the joint shows.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
