How we handle bathroom resealing in Kevington
A shower joint gets soaked every day. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. If you are dealing with shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop and black spots spreading through the bead, we can put it right, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures alike.
In much of London, period terraces have been converted into flats over the years, and bathrooms were often squeezed into small rooms. Small, steamy rooms are where mould gets into sealant and grout fastest, and homes in Kevington are no different.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Why deal with it now?
Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it won’t bond. Water creeps under it and mould follows, and the next reseal means two layers to cut out. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in Kevington, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll talk you through it.

Common questions in Kevington
Could a tired shower seal in my Kevington flat affect the neighbours below?
It can, yes: water that gets past a split bead or cracked grout often runs under the tray and shows on the ceiling below. Replacing the sealant and grout before that happens is much less trouble than repairing a neighbour’s ceiling.
Is parking a problem for a job in Kevington?
In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run more smoothly, so mention what’s available when you book.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?
Yes, we can. The old sealant comes out, the mould is treated, and we reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Kevington and the rest of Greater London, along with the rest of our area.
What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
Helping us quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:

- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The address or postcode of the job
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
We quote each job on its own. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details and send photos if you have them.
Bathroom resealing around Kevington
In a London flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal can reach the neighbours below, which is why it’s worth fixing early. London has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Kevington is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. In the older streets around Unity Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Common problems we fix in Kevington
Baths and trays move. An acrylic bath flexes under load, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
For landlords with property near St Mary Cray station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

How it works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. In Kevington, flats, stairs and shared entrances are part of the routine. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents when you book.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.
How the job changes by surface
Sinks & splashbacks
Where a splashback meets the worktop, there’s a joint that catches every splash. We renew it in clear, white or a matched colour.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Laminate worktops swell if water gets into the core. A continuous bead along the back keeps water out, as long as the worktop itself is firmly fixed.
