How we handle bathroom resealing in Hogben's Hill
The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. Every bit of old silicone comes out, down to the thin film left on the tiles, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. We’re often asked to deal with gaps where the bath or tray has moved and shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop, across baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
Homes around Hogben's Hill are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Do not leave water standing on kitchen joints
Clean the silicone with care: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.
Don’t wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The product the joint needs
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How much there is to do
- Working hours on commercial sites
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 make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What to tell us for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- The rough size of the job
- The address or postcode of the job
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
We do not publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we send you a clear quote for your job. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Bathroom resealing around Hogben's Hill
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Rented homes near Selling station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

Leave it or put it right?
Dealing with sealant early is a short job: it takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating. In a small place like Hogben's Hill, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

How it works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. In a small place like Hogben's Hill, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Related advice
When to call us in Hogben's Hill
Silicone does not last for ever. Every shower, every splash and every wipe with a cleaner slowly wear it down, and how long it lasts comes down to use, cleaning and ventilation.
The problems people generally mention when they call are:
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
Schools such as Selling Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Hogben's Hill: your questions answered
Is Hogben's Hill in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Hogben's Hill is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you work for landlords with property near Selling station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
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.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
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.
Do I need to be at home?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Hogben's Hill and the rest of Kent.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
