Bath resealing at your home in Springhill
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We work on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about gaps in the seal and missing sealant behind the taps.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Glasgow.

Springhill: your questions answered
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Glasgow. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a couple of hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What a repair cannot fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Hollow or loose tiles

Resealing in Springhill: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Give the seal a regular clean
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
