- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

How we handle bath resealing in Glass Houghton
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include black mould in the sealant and a messy previous reseal, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Glass Houghton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Most clients in Glass Houghton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Resealing in Glass Houghton: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
