How it works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself usually takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers, depending on the amount of work. For a village or hamlet like Hellman's Cross, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip 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.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
Should I try it myself first?
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, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Why it’s worth doing now in Hellman's Cross
A clean new bead makes a room look cared for, which helps when a home is being let or put on the market. A smeared, uneven DIY bead does the opposite. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Hellman's Cross, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What the job involves on each surface
Basins & vanity units
Basins take less water than showers, but the joint behind them is splashed every day. Old sealant there often goes black at the corners, so it’s cut out and renewed just like a bath joint.
Wet rooms
Not every wet room leak is a sealant problem. We check the joints and say so if the fault looks to be elsewhere.
Questions from Hellman's Cross
Do you cover smaller places like Hellman's Cross?
Yes, Hellman's Cross is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you work for landlords with property near Stansted Airport station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
How much does bathroom resealing cost in Hellman's Cross?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Where do you work from?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Hellman's Cross and the rest of Essex.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes. We give a 12-month guarantee on every job, and we are fully insured.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so the bead comes out, the joint is treated and new anti-fungal silicone goes in.
What bathroom resealing looks like in Hellman's Cross
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.

Quotes for bathroom resealing in Hellman's Cross
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- The size of the job
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Mould in or behind the old joints
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. 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.
Asking for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Photos by email, if that is easy
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
Keep bottles and razors off the sealant line, as they hold water against it. A quick squeegee after showering keeps water from sitting on the joint.
Worktop joints fail quietly. 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.
Do you need bathroom resealing in Hellman's Cross?
Baths and trays move. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Water getting behind the bath panel
Rented homes near Stansted Airport station change hands often, and a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
