How we handle bathroom resealing in Canada

The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. 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. Common call-outs are for gaps where the bath or tray has moved and lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt, on sinks & splashbacks, baths and wet rooms.

For a small place like Canada, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.

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

Keeping the joints in good condition

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
  • Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
  • Wipe the sealant dry after showering
  • Don’t let bottles sit on the bead

Treat the new bead gently when you clean: 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.

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

Should I try it myself first?

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

When it is not the sealant

Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:

  • Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
  • Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
  • Failed grout lines across the wall

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Canada questions

Do you cover smaller places like Canada?

Yes. Canada is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Can you do bathroom resealing in Canada?

Yes, Canada is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.

How long does a bath or shower reseal take?

It takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. You will know how long to expect before work begins.

Do I have to be there?

For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

We are a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.

Can I choose the colour of the sealant?

Most people choose white or clear, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Tell us what you’d like when you get in touch.

Different surfaces, different methods

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Worktop joints get wet and wiped every day. We seal them in a colour that suits the worktop, so the line does not stand out.

Basins & vanity units

A vanity top has a joint along the wall and sometimes at the sides. Water that gets behind can damage the unit, so a neat, continuous bead matters.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Canada

Baths and trays move. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
  • A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
  • Water escaping at the shower enclosure
  • Gaps where the bath or tray has moved

Letting a property close to Romsey station? Then a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

How it works

Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Somewhere as small as Canada, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed, including the film left on the tiles.
  2. Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
  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 tidy up and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Canada homes and their sealant

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

Schools such as Wellow School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
