Bath resealing at your home in Glasshouse
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include stained silicone and silicone coming away from the tiles, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Gloucestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Questions from Glasshouse
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Glasshouse?
Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
When to call us in Glasshouse
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Look out for these signs:
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Stained silicone
- Leaks at the edges

Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
What bath resealing costs
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
