Bath resealing at your home in Glenbrook
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Whether it’s silicone smeared on tiles and black spots in the silicone, we can normally put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Hollow or loose tiles
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps by the taps
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day

What bath resealing costs
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Landlord and trade work in Glenbrook
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Give the seal a regular clean
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
FAQs for Glenbrook
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How much does bath resealing cost in Glenbrook?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
