What we do, step by step
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers, including the tidy-up. For a village or hamlet like Bucks Green, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Advice
Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Bucks Green
We fill the bath before sealing it. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the new joint isn’t pulled apart the first time it’s used. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. Common call-outs are for a bead that has pulled away from the tiles and leaks into the floor or ceiling below, across kitchen worktops & upstands, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.
In a village or hamlet like Bucks Green, 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.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Bucks Green homes and their sealant
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Bucks Green. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and 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, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For landlords with property near Christs Hospital station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. For an older house near a landmark such as St John the Baptist, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Questions from Bucks Green
I let a flat near Christs Hospital station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you take on hotel work around Bucks Green?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes, for 12 months. Looking after the joint as we suggest helps it last.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Bucks Green.
What do you put in the joint?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.
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.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
A single bath or shower takes about a couple of hours, old sealant removal included. A whole bathroom plus the kitchen may take most of the day.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
When to call us in Bucks Green
Black mould is behind a lot of resealing. Steamy rooms that don’t dry out give mould all the damp it needs, and mould that has grown into the silicone usually will not clean off.
People generally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
If you look after a building such as Pennthorpe School, 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.

DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
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.
Why it’s worth doing now in Bucks Green
Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Bucks Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.
