Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. We regularly repair wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are silicone smeared on tiles and damp near the bath.

Your questions about bath resealing in Drayton
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Drayton.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the curing time from us, normally around a day.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Drayton?
We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes around two hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available

What we’re called out for in Drayton
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

- Sealant that’s split or lifting

Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
