Bath resealing at your home in Glassonby
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are mould you can’t clean out and missing sealant behind the taps.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Questions from Glassonby
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
When to call us in Glassonby
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Gaps by the taps
- Damp near the bath
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black spots in the silicone
Comparing quotes
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
