- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Wait for the cure time we give you
Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.
Don’t wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.
How we handle bathroom resealing in Atherfield Green
We fill the bath before sealing it. A full bath sits slightly lower than an empty one, so the new joint is not pulled apart the first time it’s used. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. We work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & upstands, and people most often call us about water getting behind the kitchen upstand and leaking joints on a shower screen.
Homes around Atherfield Green are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Do you need bathroom resealing in Atherfield Green?
Baths and trays move. An acrylic bath flexes under load, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
For jobs in and around Atherfield Green, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

Questions from Atherfield Green
Is there a guarantee on bathroom resealing in Atherfield Green?
All our work, in Atherfield Green and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you cover smaller places like Atherfield Green?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is white the only colour available?
We can use white, clear or a colour to suit. On a worktop we colour-match where the joint shows.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, we are fully insured for every job we do.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No. Fresh silicone can’t stick to the old bead, so it peels away and hides mould and water. All the old sealant comes out first.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Where do you work from?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Atherfield Green, along with the rest of our area.
How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. It generally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. For a village or hamlet like Atherfield Green, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

How the job changes by surface
Shower trays & enclosures
Water often gets past the wall profile of a shower enclosure. It’s resealed along with the tray joints, following the enclosure maker’s guidance on which side to seal.
Sinks & splashbacks
Splashbacks in glass, tile or acrylic meet the worktop in a long joint. It’s resealed in white, clear or a colour to suit.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Atherfield Green
Atherfield Green is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
In and around Atherfield Green, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
