About our bath resealing in Drayton

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are water getting behind the bath or tray and black spots in the silicone.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Movement in the bath or tray

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

What we work on

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

How we price bath resealing

There is no area surcharge for Drayton. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Drayton questions

Do you work in Drayton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Drayton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What we’re called out for in Drayton

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Unsealed corners

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How changes to the job are handled

Our hiring checklist

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Resealing in Drayton: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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 book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No extra charge for your area
