Bathroom & kitchen resealing in Addington, Greater London
Bath, shower, basin, wet room, worktop and sink resealing for homes and businesses in Addington and across Greater London. ARBOMaster approved applicators, fully insured, with a one-year guarantee.
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
Don’t stand bottles along the bead, as they hold water against it. Squeegeeing the walls and tray after use helps the joint dry.
Small signs come before a leak: lifting ends, gaps, dark shadows under the bead or a stain downstairs. Any of these means the joint needs attention.
Bathroom resealing in Addington, done properly
With over 20 years in the trade, we reseal baths, showers and kitchens in homes across Addington. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and every job carries our one-year guarantee. We work on baths, kitchen worktops & upstands and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are failed sealant on the screen profile and new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting.
Much of London’s older housing is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many of them now split into flats, with bathrooms fitted into whatever space was available. A compact bathroom that steams up every day is hard on silicone and grout.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What happens on the day
We bring everything the job needs with us. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. In Addington, flats, stairs and shared entrances are part of the routine. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Advice
Bathroom resealing in Addington: local notes
London has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, so tired sealant is best dealt with early.
Addington is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. If you let a flat or house near West Wickham station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

What affects the quote in Addington
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The number and length of the joints
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How many areas need sealing
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What we need to know
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- How we’d reach the joints
- A few photos by email, if you can
- If someone has resealed it before
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.
What the job involves on each surface
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the joints between floor and walls take standing water. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, and our work is on the visible joints only.
Sinks & splashbacks
Around the sink, we use a product suited to kitchens, including a food-safe sealant where that’s needed. The bead is finished smooth so it wipes clean.
When to call us in Addington
Baths and trays move. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, and a tray that isn’t fully bedded can rock. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
Managing a site like Applegarth Academy? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Questions from Addington
Can worn sealant in a flat in Addington cause a leak downstairs?
Yes, and the first sign is often a stain on the ceiling below. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a new bead early stops it getting that far.
Is parking an issue for bathroom resealing in Addington?
London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected.
Is white the only colour available?
There’s a choice: clear, white and colours chosen to suit the room. We will talk it through when we quote.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
The surface skins over fairly quickly, but the bead needs longer to cure right through. Leave it around 24 hours before it gets wet, or as long as we advise for that product.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before we start.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.
Should I try it myself first?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
