How we handle bathroom resealing in Crook Log
With over 20 years in the trade, we reseal baths, showers and kitchens in homes across Crook Log. We’re ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and every job carries our 12-month guarantee. We work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths, and people most often call us about shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop and gaps where the bath or tray has moved.
Across London, a large share of homes are flats, conversions or mansion blocks, and many bathrooms sit right above someone else’s ceiling. That makes worn sealant and cracked grout in Crook Log more than a cosmetic job.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What the job involves on each surface
Basins & vanity units
Vanity units have long, worktop-style joints against the wall. Water that gets behind can damage the unit, so a neat, continuous bead matters.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Water behind a laminate worktop can make the edge swell. A sound joint along the back edge stops that, as long as the worktop itself is firmly fixed.
Questions from Crook Log
Do you take on hotel work around Crook Log?
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.
Do you work for landlords with property near Bexleyheath station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
One bath or shower is around two hours’ work, including cutting out the old sealant. A full bathroom and kitchen can take most of a day.
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.
Is there any odour?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is Crawley. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?
Yes. We reseal worktop upstands, sinks and splashbacks, with a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows.
What bathroom resealing looks like in Crook Log
In a London flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal can reach the neighbours below, which is why it’s worth fixing early. London has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Schools such as Crook Log Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Rented homes near Bexleyheath station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

Quotes for bathroom resealing in Crook Log
There’s no set price list. What we look at:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How many areas need sealing
- When we can work, for business premises
- The type of sealant required
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The type of property
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Simply ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and describe the job and send pictures if you have them.
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
Check the sealant now and then. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, and if anything looks wrong, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.
Common problems we fix in Crook Log
A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
In the older streets around Trinity Baptist Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- How the colour is chosen
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are

What we do, step by step
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it normally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. In Crook Log, flats, stairs and shared entrances are part of the routine. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.
- We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
