- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
Why it’s worth doing now in Bishop's Green
A quick bead over the top of the old one might look better for a while, but it can’t stick to what’s underneath. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it, so the next person has twice as much to remove. In a small place like Bishop's Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts.
Why book with us
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting

Mr Mastic has more than 20 years’ experience of sealant work, and our applicators reseal bathrooms and kitchens across Bishop's Green. We are ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and every job carries our one-year guarantee. We work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths, and the jobs we see most are leaking joints on a shower screen and water getting behind the bath panel.
Homes around Bishop's Green are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

What else we do in Bishop's Green
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
Clean the silicone with care: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Resealing early stops it.
How it works
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. Most jobs take half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. For a village or hamlet like Bishop's Green, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- 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’re told the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Tell us about any water getting in

What the job involves on each surface
Baths
Acrylic baths give a little under load, and even steel and cast iron baths settle slightly when full. Loading the bath with water before sealing allows for it.
Sinks & splashbacks
Water getting under the rim of an inset sink can soak the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.
Signs you need bathroom resealing in Bishop's Green
Sealing over old silicone is one of the commonest mistakes we find. Fresh silicone can’t grip the old bead underneath, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
In the older streets around Church of St Peter, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Before you book anyone
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What insurance they hold
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
What sealant work cannot fix
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Failed grout lines across the wall
- A tray or bath that is cracked through
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Bishop's Green
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Schools such as Cheam 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. Letting a property close to Newbury Racecourse station? Then mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

Bishop's Green: your questions answered
Will you come out to Bishop's Green?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Newbury Racecourse station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No. It’s a common reason for reseals failing. We cut out all of the old sealant, clean the joint and start again.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
How do I get a quote for bathroom resealing in Bishop's Green?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
What colours of sealant can you use?
White and clear are the most common choices, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
