Bathroom resealing for Buckskin homes and businesses

The process

Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. Parking around Buckskin is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  2. The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
  3. Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
  4. When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
  5. We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

Before we arrive

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Bathroom resealing in Buckskin

The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it into walls, panels and floors. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on sinks & splashbacks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are black spots spreading through the bead and two layers of silicone, both failing.

Smaller places like Buckskin still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Whether it’s a cottage bathroom or a newer en suite, the approach is the same: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:

  • A tray or bath that is cracked through
  • Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
  • A leaking waste, trap or valve

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before booking.

Where we work in Buckskin

  • Sinks & splashbacks
  • Kitchen worktops & upstands
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
  • Give the silicone its full cure time
  • Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
  • Squeegee the walls and tray after use

Clean the silicone with care: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.

Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning generally won’t remove it, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.

For landlords and businesses

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can go on one quote, and we are fully insured.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll give you a quote.

How the job changes by surface

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Upstands and back edges are cut out, cleaned of grease and resealed, since cooking leaves a film that stops silicone sticking. Proper degreasing is what helps the new joint last.

Baths

A bath shifts slightly every time it’s filled, so we fill it with water before sealing. The joint is then laid with the bath at its lowest point and is not torn the first time it’s used.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Buckskin

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.

If you let a flat or house near Basingstoke 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 Church of St Thomas A Becket, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. If you look after a building such as Chiltern Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Can I do it myself?

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Questions from Buckskin

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

Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Can you do bathroom resealing in Buckskin?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Buckskin is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.

Does someone need to be in?

We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.

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

Usually after around 24 hours. You’ll get the exact cure time before we leave.

Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?

Yes, we can. The old sealant comes out, the mould is treated, and we reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?

Yes. Kitchen joints get extra degreasing before the new bead goes on, then a colour-matched bead is laid.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.

Why deal with it now?

Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. 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 an older home around Buckskin, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.

There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
