Bath resealing at your home in Drakeholes
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Typical jobs include stained silicone and black mould in the sealant, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Drakeholes as everywhere else we work.

FAQs for Drakeholes
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
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 come to Drakeholes?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Drakeholes and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Signs you need bath resealing in Drakeholes
In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

What affects the price in Drakeholes
There’s no charge for travel to Drakeholes. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For a price in Drakeholes, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Let steam out after showers
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
