How it works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating. The job normally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. For a village or hamlet like Chilton, 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 protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Move anything stored near the joints
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Chilton
We fill the bath before sealing it. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the new joint is not pulled apart the first time it’s used. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. We work on sinks & splashbacks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and the jobs we see most are shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop and water escaping at the shower enclosure.
Somewhere as small as Chilton, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Chilton and across Oxfordshire.

Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Wait for the cure time we give you
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, following the cure time we give you. After that, a quick wipe after showering helps keep it clean.
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. A reseal in time can save the worktop.
Questions from Chilton
Do you work for landlords with property near Didcot Parkway station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is Chilton within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
How long does it take to reseal a bath or shower?
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.
Will there be a smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes. Worktops, sinks and splashbacks are all part of the job, with a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows.
Is white the only colour available?
Most people choose white or clear, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes, we replace the mouldy bead. Sprays can fade the marks, but cutting it out and resealing is what lasts. Good ventilation helps keep it away.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Chilton, along with the rest of our area.
Surface by surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Worktop joints get wet and wiped every day. We seal them in a colour that suits the worktop.
Basins & vanity units
On a basin, neatness shows: so we keep the line tidy and even, finished in a colour that suits the basin.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

How we quote for bathroom resealing
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The product the joint needs
- Any mould that needs treating
- When we can work, for business premises
The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What to tell us for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The problem you’ve noticed
- The type of property
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add photos by email if you can.
Bathroom resealing around Chilton
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you let a flat or house near Didcot Parkway station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. In the older streets around Church of All Saints, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. If you look after a building such as Chilton County Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Other services in Chilton
For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
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.
