About our bathroom resealing in Little Common
Mr Mastic has more than 20 years’ experience of sealant work, and our applicators reseal bathrooms and kitchens across Little Common. We’re ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and every job carries our one-year guarantee. We work on shower trays & enclosures, sinks & splashbacks and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are leaks into the floor or ceiling below and water escaping at the shower enclosure.
Somewhere as small as Little Common, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Common problems we fix in Little Common
Black mould is behind a lot of resealing. Steamy rooms that do not dry out keep the silicone damp for hours, and mould that has grown into the silicone normally won’t clean off.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Rayne Primary and Nursery 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.
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What product goes in the joint
- Which colour the sealant will be
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
Why it’s worth doing now in Little Common
Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but where mould is inside the silicone it generally comes back. Cutting it out and resealing with anti-fungal silicone is the fix that lasts. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Little Common, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

- Old sealant always removed completely

What affects the quote in Little Common
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The size of the job
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Any mould that needs treating
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Asking for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The rough size of the job
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
We quote each job on its own. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job and send photos if you have them.
What we can’t put right
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’ll tell you before work begins. It will not solve:
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
- A tray or bath that is cracked through
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Shower trays & enclosures

Little Common homes and their sealant
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.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of All Saints, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Rented homes near Braintree 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.

Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, which is usually around 24 hours. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.
Watch for the early signs: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. Any of these means the joint needs attention.
How it works
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers, including the tidy-up. For a village or hamlet like Little Common, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- 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 clear away and tell you when it can get wet, generally after around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
