Trusted bath resealing in Dry Drayton

For landlords and businesses

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.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Bath resealing at your home in Dry Drayton

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and sealant that’s split or lifting, across wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Why it’s worth resealing in Dry Drayton

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Questions from Dry Drayton

How long does silicone take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time, usually around a day.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Are there extra charges for Dry Drayton?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do you cover the whole of Cambridgeshire?

The whole UK, including all of Cambridgeshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What information do you need?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Movement in the bath or tray

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What affects the price in Dry Drayton

Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

When to call us in Dry Drayton

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Stained silicone
  • Damp near the bath
  • Black mould in the sealant

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
