About our bath resealing in Glebeland
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include gaps in the seal and unsealed corners, in shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Dry the seal after bathing
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What bath resealing costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Glebeland. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Your questions about bath resealing in Glebeland
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You’ll get the curing time from us.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
