Bathroom & kitchen resealing in Banbury, Oxfordshire
Bath, shower, basin, wet room, worktop and sink resealing for homes and businesses in Banbury and across Oxfordshire. ARBOMaster approved applicators, fully insured, with a one-year guarantee.
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
How we handle bathroom resealing in Banbury
Mr Mastic has more than 20 years’ experience of sealant work, and our applicators reseal bathrooms and kitchens across Banbury. We’re ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and every job carries our one-year guarantee. If you’re dealing with shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop and a reseal done over the top of the old bead, we can help, on basins & vanity units, sinks & splashbacks and baths alike.
Homes around Banbury have been extended and refitted over the decades, some more than once. A common problem is new sealant laid over old, which never bonds properly, which is why all the old material has to come out first.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

How the job changes by surface
Wet rooms
A wet room floor and its walls can move independently, so the corners need a flexible seal, not grout. Where grout in a corner has cracked, we can replace it with sealant.
Shower trays & enclosures
There are generally two jobs in a shower: the tray-to-wall joint and the enclosure joints. Both take water every day, so both are resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Banbury
If you manage several properties in or around Banbury, several properties can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will give you a quote.
Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
Have a look at the joints every few months. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, so if something does not look right, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Do not wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
Why it’s worth doing now in Banbury
Tired sealant is not a reason to replace a bath or shower. A new bead often brings the whole room back. If something else is wrong, we’ll tell you. Black mould and gaps in sealant don’t fix themselves, and in a busy household in Banbury they spread with every shower and every downpour. Replacing the sealant now is the simplest fix.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins.
Why book with us
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

How the visit works
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is from start to finish. A visit in Banbury needs access to the work and a place to park close by. For outside work, let us know about side access, gates and any upper-floor joints.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No. It’s a common reason for reseals failing. We cut out all of the old sealant, clean the joint and start again.

Where do you work from?

What do you put in the joint?

Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Do you need bathroom resealing in Banbury?
Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Steamy rooms that do not dry out keep the silicone damp for hours, and once it has grown into the bead, cleaning rarely gets it out.
People generally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
For landlords with property near Banbury station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Banbury
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Banbury. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around Saint Paul's, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Schools such as St Mary's Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
