About our bath resealing in Draycott in the Clay
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. We work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are gaps by the taps and black spots in the silicone.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Air the room after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep the joints dry
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Any details about the material
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DE6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

FAQs for Draycott in the Clay
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you come to Draycott in the Clay?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Draycott in the Clay for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Draycott in the Clay. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We leave the room as we found it

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A flexing bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
