How we handle bath resealing in Cowcaddens
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are gaps in the seal and old sealant that looks dirty.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
What we are called out for in Cowcaddens
Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Unsealed corners
- A messy previous reseal
- Damp near the bath

Cowcaddens questions
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We’ll give you the curing time.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover the whole of Glasgow?
The whole UK, including all of Glasgow. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How much does bath resealing cost in Cowcaddens?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep the joints dry
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep bottles off the joints
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Related advice
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
