Fawkham Green Bathroom Resealing
Baths, showers and worktops in Fawkham Green need attention? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly.
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. Several properties can go on one quote.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Bathroom resealing in Fawkham Green
Across Fawkham Green, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: the long edge of the bath, the base of the shower tray, the back of the basin and the line along the worktop. Every joint is cut out, cleaned and left dry before it’s resealed. We work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & upstands and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop and leaks into the floor or ceiling below.
Somewhere as small as Fawkham Green, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

What we’re called out for in Fawkham Green
Black mould is behind a lot of resealing. Steamy rooms that don’t dry out keep the silicone damp for hours, and once it has grown into the bead, cleaning rarely gets it out.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
Rented homes near Longfield station change hands often, and fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

How it works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. For a village or hamlet like Fawkham Green, 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.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- 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 clear away and tell you when it can get wet, generally after around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Mention any tricky access
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Related advice
Fawkham Green: your questions answered
I let a flat near Longfield station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Is Fawkham Green in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Fawkham Green is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No. It’s a common reason for reseals failing. The old joint is stripped, cleaned and resealed from scratch.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
Allow a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. We will confirm how long your job needs when we quote.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Do not leave water standing on kitchen joints
Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
What bathroom resealing looks like in Fawkham Green
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you look after a building such as New Ash Green Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Homes close to Parish Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Why act early in Fawkham Green
Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Water that gets behind a bath soaks into the floor, the panel and sometimes the ceiling below, and that is a far bigger job than a reseal. In a small place like Fawkham Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
