Bath resealing in Drayton

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Bath resealing in Drayton without replacing anything

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours. If you are dealing with discoloured, yellow sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can typically put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What bath resealing costs

You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most customers in Drayton get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

See our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Drayton questions

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You will get the curing time from us, generally around a day.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Do you come to Drayton?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Drayton and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

When to call us in Drayton

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Black spots in the silicone

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What aftercare is recommended

Our hiring checklist

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Air the room after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A flexing bath
