How we handle bath resealing in Tarlton
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about an untidy old seal and sealant that’s split or lifting.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Gloucestershire.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Tarlton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How we price bath resealing
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- The type of damage
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your GL7 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
When to call us in Tarlton
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Unsealed corners
- A messy previous reseal
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Sealant that is split or lifting
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who turns up on the day
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Questions from Tarlton
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Hidden water damage
- Hollow or loose tiles
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
