About our bathroom resealing in Bailey's Hard

Across Bailey's Hard, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: the long edge of the bath, the base of the shower tray, the back of the basin and the line along the worktop. Every joint is cut out, cleaned and left dry before it’s resealed. Common call-outs are for water escaping at the shower enclosure and a bead that has pulled away from the tiles, on kitchen worktops & upstands, wet rooms and sinks & splashbacks.

In a village or hamlet like Bailey's Hard, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Can I do it myself?

Bathrooms and kitchens in Bailey's Hard

Bailey's Hard is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Bailey's Hard. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.

In the older streets around Church of the Blessed Virgin and Child, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Schools such as Beaulieu Village Primary School are buildings too, and washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

How it works

We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere as small as Bailey's Hard, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  2. Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
  3. Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
  4. With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
  5. The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Questions from Bailey's Hard

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Beaulieu Road station?

Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Will you come out to Bailey's Hard?

Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Do you guarantee your resealing?

Yes, a 12-month guarantee. Good ventilation and gentle cleaning help it last.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.

What should I tell you?

Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Where do you work from?

Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Bailey's Hard.

Can new silicone go straight over the old?

No. It’s a common reason for reseals failing. The old joint is stripped, cleaned and resealed from scratch.

What colours of sealant can you use?

White, clear and a range of colours are available. Where the joint is on show, we match it to the surface.

What sealant work cannot fix

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
  • A leaking waste, trap or valve
  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we seal

  • Baths
  • Sinks & splashbacks
  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & upstands
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Shower trays & enclosures

Do you need bathroom resealing in Bailey's Hard?

Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Traces of soap, bath oil and old sealant stop it gripping, and a joint that looked fine soon begins to come away.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Damp behind the bath or under the tray
  • Smears of silicone across the tiles
  • Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
  • Gaps between the worktop and the wall

Rented homes near Beaulieu Road station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

Questions to ask before you book

  • The length of the guarantee
  • How much experience the applicator has
  • What the cure time is
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it

Our hiring checklist

How to look after the new joints

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
  • Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
  • Wipe the sealant dry after showering
  • Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead

Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the bead dries out between uses.

A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.
