Bathroom resealing in Holborn, done properly
It isn’t only bathrooms. The joint between worktop and wall, the edge of the sink and the bottom of the splashback get wet every single day, and water behind a laminate worktop can make it swell. We reseal them with a kitchen-suitable silicone, matched to the worktop where it’s on show. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and people most often call us about splits where the tray meets the wall and cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone.
Hard London water leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps alike. In Holborn, bathroom resealing is as much about a room looking cared for as about keeping water out.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Holborn as everywhere else we work.

How it works
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear 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.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Move anything stored near the joints

How the job changes by surface
Basins & vanity units
Basin joints are short and close to eye level: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, finished in a colour that suits the basin.
Baths
A bath shifts slightly every time it’s filled, so we fill it with water before sealing. The joint is then laid with the bath at its lowest point.
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not let bottles sit on the bead
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
Do not stand bottles along the bead, as they hold water against it. Squeegeeing the walls and tray after use helps the joint dry.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will quote.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Signs you need bathroom resealing in Holborn
Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Steamy rooms that do not dry out keep the silicone damp for hours, and mould that has grown into the silicone generally will not clean off.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Alban's Church of England 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.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Any mould that needs treating
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The type of sealant required
- The amount of work
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and give you a clear quote before any work starts.
What we need to know
When you call or email, these details help:
- How we’d reach the joints
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Roughly how big the job is
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details, and pictures are welcome.
Leave it or put it right?
Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, and that is a far bigger job than a reseal. Converted houses in London often have a bathroom above someone else’s living room, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Putting it right early is much less trouble.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
Why us?
- Fully insured
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- 20+ years of sealant experience

Questions from Holborn
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Holborn?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Holborn?
London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
You are not limited to white: clear, white and colours chosen to suit the room. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
Do you cover Holborn?
Yes, we do. Our applicators work in Holborn.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes, by replacing the sealant. Cleaning products may lighten it, but the lasting fix is new anti-fungal silicone on a clean, treated joint. Airing the room well helps stop it returning.
How much does bathroom resealing cost in Holborn?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You’ll get a clear quote before work begins.
