Common problems we fix in Drayton
In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
People typically call us when they notice something like this:
- Unsealed corners
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Questions to ask before booking

- When it can be used again
- Who turns up on the day
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Resealing in Drayton: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Let steam out after showers
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes around two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Prices and what affects them
You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Drayton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Your questions about bath resealing in Drayton
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do you cover Drayton?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Drayton and the rest of Somerset. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you cover the entire of Somerset?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
