How much does it cost to reseal a bath in London?

Resealing a bath is a fixed price of £110 plus VAT with no call-out fee, and Saturday is the same weekday rate. That covers stripping out 100 percent of the old silicone, cleaning and drying the joint, and laying a fresh watertight bead of sanitary silicone in white or clear. It is a fixed price rather than by time because doing it properly is the whole job: a bath reseal that is rushed or laid over old, contaminated silicone is the single most common reason a reseal fails within months, and the fixed price means there is no incentive to cut that preparation short.

Why does bath and shower silicone keep going mouldy or peeling?

Silicone goes black or peels for three reasons, and only one of them is the sealant simply being old. The most common is that a previous reseal was laid over the old silicone or over a soap and limescale film, so the new bead never properly bonded and water tracked behind it. The second is a damp, poorly ventilated bathroom where the bead stays wet long enough for mould to colonise the surface, which an extractor fan or wiping down after a shower reduces. The third, specific to baths, is sealing an empty tub: if the bath is not filled with water first, it drops when someone gets in and the joint stretches and splits. Silver Saints removes all the old silicone, treats and dries the substrate, fills the bath before sealing, and uses neutral-cure sanitary silicone with a fungicide, which is why the reseal lasts rather than blackening again by the following year.

Bathrooms across different London properties

Resealing is harder to get to last in London's older housing stock, which is where doing it properly matters most. Victorian and Edwardian conversions move more, and that constant flex is what cracks a rigid or badly applied bead at the corners, so the silicone choice and a clean bond are critical. Mansion-block bathrooms are often tiled wall-to-wall with the bath boxed in, so a leak behind a failed seal can track into the flat below before it is visible, which is why full removal and a watertight bead matter more than a quick smear over the top. London's hard water leaves limescale on the joint that stops new silicone adhering unless it is cleaned back first. Modern new-build flats tend to have shower trays and quadrant enclosures where the tray-to-wall and tray-to-frame joints both need sealing to stay watertight.

What is included, and how a Silver Saints reseal is done

A Silver Saints reseal is a strip-and-replace, not a smear over the old bead. The handyman cuts and peels out all the old silicone, removes residue with silicone remover so nothing is left to stop the new bead bonding, cleans off soap and limescale film, treats any mould and dries the joint, fills a bath with water so it sits at its loaded weight, then lays a single clean bead of neutral-cure sanitary silicone in white or clear and tools it to a smooth watertight finish. You are advised to leave it to cure before use, typically around 24 hours for a surface cure.

Combine your reseal with other bathroom jobs in one visit

Because every Silver Saints handyman is multi-trade, a reseal can be combined with other bathroom work in the same visit with no second call-out fee. Customers commonly pair a bath or shower reseal with regrouting tired tile joints, refitting a loose bath panel, fixing a dripping tap or tracing a slow leak, or resealing the basin and worktop at the same time, all under one appointment.

How much does resealing cost in London?

Resealing is a fixed price with no call-out fee: £110 plus VAT for a bath, £110 plus VAT for a shower tray with an optional shower enclosure reseal at the same visit for £30 plus VAT more, and £70 plus VAT for a sink.

Do you remove all the old silicone first?

Yes, Silver Saints removes 100 percent of the old silicone and cleans the joint back before applying any new sealant, because new silicone will not bond to old silicone or to a soap and limescale film, which is the most common reason a reseal fails.

Why does my silicone keep going mouldy?

Silicone goes mouldy when a bead stays damp long enough for mould to colonise it, or when old mould was sealed in underneath, so Silver Saints treats and dries the substrate and uses sanitary silicone with a fungicide, and good bathroom ventilation helps keep it clean afterwards.

Why did my last reseal crack or fail so quickly?

A reseal usually fails fast because it was laid over old silicone or a dirty joint so it never bonded, or because a bath was sealed empty and the joint split when the tub took weight, both of which Silver Saints avoids by stripping the joint fully and filling the bath before sealing.

How long before I can use the bath or shower after resealing?

Sanitary silicone typically needs around 24 hours to surface cure before the bath or shower is used, and the handyman confirms the exact curing time for the product used on the day.

Can I have white or clear silicone?

Silver Saints can reseal in white or clear silicone, and white is usually the neatest match against white sanitaryware while clear suits coloured or patterned tiling.
