Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Brighstone
A reseal only lasts if the joint is properly prepared. The old sealant is removed to the last smear, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. New silicone goes on only when the joint is fully dry. If you’re dealing with a reseal done over the top of the old bead and mouldy sealant that has gone black, we can put it right, on kitchen worktops & upstands, baths and wet rooms alike.
Somewhere as small as Brighstone, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Brighstone
Not every tube in the shop is meant for a shower. Acrylic caulk and general-purpose sealants are not designed for a joint that is wet every day, so they stain, crack or go mouldy before long. A bathroom joint needs anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
Schools such as Brighstone Church of England Aided Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Questions to ask before booking
- Is VAT in the price?
- Who turns up on the day
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Move toiletries away from the joint
Don’t stand bottles along the bead, as they hold water against it. A quick squeegee after showering keeps water from sitting on the joint.
Small signs come before a leak: lifting ends, gaps, dark shadows under the bead or a stain downstairs. Any of these means the joint needs attention.

The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower, depending on how much there is to do. Somewhere like Brighstone 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.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed, including the film left on the tiles.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can be quoted together.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Why act early in Brighstone
A failed joint gets more costly to put right the longer it’s left. Water that gets behind a bath soaks into the floor, the panel and sometimes the ceiling below, turning a small job into a building repair. In a small place like Brighstone, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
Why book with us
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- Colour agreed with you before work begins
- We leave the area clean and tidy

Brighstone: your questions answered
Do you cover Brighstone for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Brighstone is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is Brighstone within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
How long before the new sealant can get wet?
Silicone is touch-dry quite quickly, but it takes longer to cure. Leave it around 24 hours before it gets wet, or follow the cure time we give you.
Can tenants book the work?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No. A bead laid over old silicone soon starts to come away. Every trace of the old bead is removed first.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Brighstone and the rest of the Isle of Wight.
How much does bathroom resealing cost in Brighstone?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
One bath or shower is around two hours’ work, including cutting out the old sealant. A full bathroom and kitchen can take most of a day.
Different surfaces, different methods
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.
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.
Bathroom resealing around Brighstone
Brighstone is within about 1 mile of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. 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.
If you live in an older home near St. Mary's Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
