Bath resealing in Glascoed without replacing anything
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our technicians work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are an untidy old seal and missing sealant behind the taps.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Torfaen.

Questions from Glascoed
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take around two hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Do you need bath resealing in Glascoed?
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Gaps by the taps
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
What bath resealing costs
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
