Hales Place Bathroom Resealing
Problem with your baths, showers and worktops in Hales Place? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, with a 12-month guarantee.
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
Keep water off the new bead until it has cured, which is usually around 24 hours. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.
Worktop joints fail quietly. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, where it can make the board swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.
How we handle bathroom resealing in Hales Place
A bead that has gone black, split or come away shouldn’t be left until there’s a leak. A photo of the joints helps when you ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email, and you will get a clear quote for bathroom resealing in Hales Place. We’re often asked to deal with mouldy sealant that has gone black and splits where the tray meets the wall, across shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths.
In a smaller place like Hales Place, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, some older and some much newer. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.

Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Hales Place
Hales Place has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. 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.
In the older streets around Church of St Stephen, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Managing a site like St Stephen's Junior 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. Letting a property close to Canterbury West station? Then mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

Hales Place questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Canterbury West station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Will you come out to Hales Place?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No. A bead laid over old silicone soon starts to come away. Every trace of the old bead is removed first.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Is white the only colour available?
We can use white, clear or a colour to suit. On a worktop we colour-match where the joint shows.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. More than one area can go on one quote.
Why act early in Hales Place
Sorting it now is quick: it takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating. In a smaller place like Hales Place, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. We will give you a clear price for the lot.
Why book with us
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- Colour agreed with you before any work starts
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
What we cannot put right
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before we start. It will not solve:
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.
Where we work in Hales Place
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Sinks & splashbacks
What the job involves on each surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Worktop joints get wet and wiped every day. The new bead is colour-matched where it shows, so the line doesn’t stand out.
Sinks & splashbacks
The edge of an inset sink is a common place for water to get under the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.
What affects the quote in Hales Place
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- The number and length of the joints
- Any mould that needs treating
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The old material and how stubborn it is
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What to tell us for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- If someone has resealed it before
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Whether it’s a home or a business
If you’re in Hales Place and need bathroom resealing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and we will agree the price before any work begins.
How it works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can carry on as normal. The job generally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. A visit to Hales Place is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
