We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Gloucestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Bath resealing in Horsley, done in place
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you are dealing with unsealed corners and black mould in the sealant, we can typically put it right, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Air the room after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
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.
What we can’t put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A flexing bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Take a look at our prices page.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Your questions about bath resealing in Horsley
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How much does bath resealing cost in Horsley?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is the work guaranteed?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
