Bath resealing at your home in Quedgeley
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for silicone coming away from the tiles and black mould in the sealant, across kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When to call us in Quedgeley
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Before you book anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A flexing bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Your questions about bath resealing in Quedgeley
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Quedgeley.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Resealing in Quedgeley: why it matters
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Keep the joints dry
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
