How the visit works

When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work generally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. Somewhere like Bosham Hoe needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
  2. We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
  4. We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, usually after around 24 hours.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Aftercare tips

Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
  • Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
  • Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
  • Use gentle cleaners on the silicone

Keep bottles and razors off the sealant line, as they hold water against it. Squeegeeing the walls and tray after use keeps water from sitting on the joint.

A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, where it can make the board swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.

Should I try it myself first?

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

What the job involves on each surface

Basins & vanity units

On a basin, neatness shows: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, finished in a colour that suits the basin.

Sinks & splashbacks

Around the sink, we use a product suited to kitchens, including a food-safe sealant where that is needed. The joint is laid neatly so it’s easy to wipe.

Bosham Hoe: your questions answered

Will you come out to Bosham Hoe?

Yes, Bosham Hoe is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Bosham station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.

Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?

Yes. We reseal worktop upstands, sinks and splashbacks, in a kitchen-suitable sealant, matched to the worktop where it’s on show.

Where do you work from?

Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Bosham Hoe.

How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?

After around 24 hours in most cases. You’ll get the exact cure time before we leave.

Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?

No, never. A bead laid over old silicone soon starts to come away, because silicone doesn’t bond to silicone. We remove the old bead completely before resealing.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we will quote it together.

Can I choose the colour of the sealant?

White and clear are the most common choices, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Tell us what you’d like when you get in touch.

Common problems we fix in Bosham Hoe

Not every tube in the shop is meant for a shower. Acrylic caulk and general-purpose sealants are not designed for a joint that’s wet every day, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. A bathroom joint needs anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
  • Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
  • Two layers of silicone, both failing
  • Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away

Letting a property close to Bosham station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the colour is chosen
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared

Choosing a sealant specialist

Bathrooms and kitchens in Bosham Hoe

Bosham Hoe is within about 1 mile of 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. 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.

Homes close to The Parish Church of the Holy Trinity include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Why act early in Bosham Hoe

The difference in a professional reseal is mostly what you do not see: removing all the old sealant, degreasing the joint, treating mould and drying it properly. Skip those steps and even the best silicone fails early. Older cottages and farmhouses around Bosham Hoe can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

What you get with us

  • White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
  • Neat joints and a tidy finish
  • Old sealant always removed completely
