Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Cranbrook
Mr Mastic has more than 20 years’ experience of sealant work, and our applicators reseal bathrooms and kitchens across Cranbrook. We are ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and the work comes with a 12-month guarantee. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, baths and sinks & splashbacks, and the jobs we see most are smears of silicone across the tiles and sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away.
Much of London’s older housing is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many of them now split into flats, and bathrooms were often squeezed into small rooms. Small, steamy rooms are where mould gets into sealant and grout fastest, and homes in Cranbrook are no different.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

What else we do in Cranbrook
Why deal with it now?
Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, and that’s a far bigger job than a reseal. Converted houses in London often have a bathroom above someone else’s living room, so a small leak from tired sealant can mean a neighbour’s ceiling and a lot of disruption. Putting it right early is much less trouble.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.

- We leave the area clean and tidy

Cranbrook homes and their sealant
London has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. In a London flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal can reach the neighbours below, so tired sealant is best dealt with early.
Rented homes near Ilford station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. Schools such as The Ursuline Academy Ilford are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Cranbrook is about 2 miles north-east of Forest Gate, in Greater London.

How the visit works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it generally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. In Cranbrook, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear 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.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
Have a look at the joints every few months. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, and if anything looks wrong, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.
What we’re called out for in Cranbrook
Sealant laid on a damp, dusty or greasy joint never bonds properly. Traces of soap, bath oil and old sealant stop it gripping, so a rushed job can start to lift early.
Look out for any of the following:
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
As a London address, Cranbrook can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.
What to look for in a quote

Cranbrook: your questions answered
Do you work in hotels near Cranbrook?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
I let a flat near Ilford station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes. Once mould has grown into the silicone, it usually can’t be cleaned out for good, so we cut it out, treat the joint and reseal with anti-fungal silicone.
Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?
Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then a colour-matched bead is laid.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we’re done.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Is white the only colour available?
White, clear and a range of colours are available. On a worktop we colour-match where the joint shows.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
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.
