DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
How we handle bathroom resealing in Fenn Street
Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through into walls, panels and floors. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. If you’re dealing with damp behind the bath or under the tray and black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off, we can put it right.
For a small place like Fenn Street, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

What the job involves on each surface
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the joints between floor and walls take standing water. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, working on the surface joints, not the tanking or drainage.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Laminate worktops swell if water gets into the core. A continuous bead along the back keeps water out, as long as the worktop itself is firmly fixed.
How it works
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included for a typical job. Somewhere like Fenn Street needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- 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, normally around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Advice
Bathrooms and kitchens in Fenn Street
Fenn Street is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Rented homes near Gillingham (Kent) 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. Homes close to Church of St Mary include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Common questions in Fenn Street
Do you cover smaller places like Fenn Street?
Yes. Fenn Street is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you do bathroom resealing in Fenn Street?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Fenn Street is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?
Yes. We strip the bead, treat the joint and lay new anti-fungal silicone.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
Most people choose white or clear, and other colours are available to suit tiles, trays and worktops. Tell us what you’d like when you get in touch.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Fenn Street.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
Why deal with it now?
Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. Cutting it out and resealing with anti-fungal silicone is the fix that lasts. Older cottages and farmhouses around Fenn Street can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Move toiletries away from the joint
Have a look at the joints every few months. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, so if something doesn’t look right, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, where it can make the board swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.
What we’re called out for in Fenn Street
Sealing over old silicone is one of the commonest mistakes we find. Fresh silicone can’t grip the old bead underneath, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
Managing a site like High Halstow Primary Academy? 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.
