How we handle bathroom resealing in Hordle
Mr Mastic has more than 20 years’ experience of sealant work, and our applicators reseal bathrooms and kitchens across Hordle. We are fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and the work comes with a 12-month guarantee. Common call-outs are for black spots spreading through the bead and water escaping at the shower enclosure, across sinks & splashbacks, kitchen worktops & upstands and basins & vanity units.
In and around Hordle, older properties sit alongside newer ones. Older homes can move a little with the seasons, which is hard on tired sealant and rigid grout.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Can I do it myself?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
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.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Hordle, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and pictures by email help.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Surface by surface
Basins & vanity units
Basin joints are short and close to eye level: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, finished in a colour that suits the basin.
Sinks & splashbacks
The edge of an inset sink is a common place for water to get under the worktop. We reseal the visible edge of the sink where it has failed.
What we do, step by step
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers and we leave things clean and tidy. Parking around Hordle is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear 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.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

When something else is needed
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- A tray or bath that’s cracked through
- A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Where we work in Hordle

Leave it or put it right?
Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. In a smaller place like Hordle, 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 it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

Your questions about bathroom resealing in Hordle
Will you come out to Hordle?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is Hordle in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Hordle is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties at once, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Can you just seal over the old silicone?
No, never. Sealing over the top looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts. Every trace of the old bead is removed first.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
What we’re called out for in Hordle
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.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- Water getting behind the bath panel
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Hordle CofE (VA) Primary School, 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.

Bathroom resealing in Hordle: local notes
Hordle is within about 2 miles of 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.
If you live in an older home near Church of All Saints, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Rented homes near New Milton 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.
