About Clever Little Things

The annoying little problems nobody makes products for? That's our thing.

You know those small household frustrations that aren't quite bad enough to call someone out for, but annoying enough that you end up Googling solutions at 11pm? Yeah. We know them too.

Clever Little Things started because our founder Colin had one of those problems. Water kept leaking from the bottom of his shower screen, pooling on the bathroom floor after every single shower. Not dramatic. Not urgent. Just... relentlessly annoying.

So he did what everyone does. He searched online. He trawled forums. He found hundreds of people with the exact same problem and absolutely nobody making a proper, simple product to fix it. Plenty of vague advice about silicone sealant (messy, permanent, often makes things worse) and not much else.

That gap between "loads of people have this problem" and "nobody is solving it properly" felt too obvious to ignore. So Colin set about creating a real solution, tested it in real bathrooms, and DrySpell was born.

What we're about

We make targeted little products that fix specific home problems. Not massive DIY projects. Not stuff that needs a professional. Just clever, well-made fixes for the things that quietly drive you mad.

Every product we make is:

  • Designed and made in the UK
  • Tested in real homes by real people (not just in a lab)
  • Safe and non-toxic so you don't need gloves, goggles, or a chemistry degree
  • Backed by our money-back guarantee because if it doesn't work, you shouldn't pay for it

Why "Clever Little Things"?

Because that's exactly what our products are. Small, clever, and focused on doing one job really well. DrySpell is our first product, but it won't be our last. If there's a frustrating little household problem that nobody else is fixing properly, we want to hear about it.
