Bathroom resealing in Hawkinge
It isn’t only bathrooms. The joint between worktop and wall, the edge of the sink and the bottom of the splashback get wet every single day, and water behind a laminate worktop can make it swell. Kitchen joints get a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows. We work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & upstands, and the jobs we see most are two layers of silicone, both failing and a bead that has pulled away from the tiles.
Homes around Hawkinge range from older cottages to more recent houses. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.

Landlord and commercial work in Hawkinge
If you manage several properties in or around Hawkinge, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
Why act early in Hawkinge
You don’t need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. A new bead often brings the whole room back, as long as the fittings themselves are sound. If something else is wrong, we will tell you. In a smaller place like Hawkinge, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before any work starts.
Why us?
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- 20+ years of sealant experience
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings

What bathroom resealing looks like in Hawkinge
Hawkinge is within about 3 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For landlords with property near Folkestone West station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. For an older house near a landmark such as St Luke's, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Hawkinge: your questions answered
Is Hawkinge within the area you cover?
Yes. Hawkinge is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is Hawkinge in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Hawkinge is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes. Worktops, sinks and splashbacks are all part of the job, in a kitchen-suitable sealant, matched to the worktop where it’s on show.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.

What else we do in Hawkinge
What we cannot put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- A tray or bath that is cracked through
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
Where we work in Hawkinge
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
What we are called out for in Hawkinge
Silicone doesn’t last for ever. Every shower, every splash and every wipe with a cleaner slowly wear it down, so its life depends on how the room is used, cleaned and aired.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
Managing a site like The Churchill 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.
What to look for in a quote
- Who turns up on the day
- The length of the guarantee
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- What product goes in the joint
What happens on the day
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included, and we explain the cure time before we leave. A visit to Hawkinge 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.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed, including the film left on the tiles.
- 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.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Clear the area around the work
