Surface by surface

Sinks & splashbacks

Next to the sink, the sealant has to cope with constant water, and a food-safe product where it’s needed. The bead is finished smooth so it wipes clean.

Baths

Acrylic baths flex the most, and even steel and cast iron baths settle slightly when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.

Fairstead questions

Can you help a landlord with a rental near White Notley station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Do you cover Fairstead for bathroom resealing?

Yes, Fairstead is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Fairstead.

Do I need to be at home?

If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?

Yes, by replacing the sealant. Sprays can fade the marks, but cutting it out and resealing is what lasts. Airing the room well helps stop it returning.

When can I use the bath or shower again?

Around 24 hours is typical, and we confirm the time for the product used. Using it sooner can damage the bead.

Do the sealants smell?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.

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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Fairstead

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.

Leave it or put it right?

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, turning a small job into a building repair. In a small place like Fairstead, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

How we quote for bathroom resealing

Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • The number and length of the joints
  • The number of rooms or windows

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

Helping us quote

There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:

  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that is easy.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Fairstead

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

Managing a site like Terling Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School? Then washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. If you let a flat or house near White Notley station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. Homes close to Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Should I try it myself first?

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

How the visit works

Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. In a small place like Fairstead, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We cover the area around the joints we are working on.
  2. Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
  3. Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
  4. Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
  5. The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on

How to look after the new joints

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
  • Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
  • Move toiletries away from the joint
  • Run the extractor fan during and after every shower

Check the sealant now and then. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, and if anything looks wrong, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.
