Bathroom resealing near Long Marston

Keeping the joints in good condition

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Squeegee the walls and tray after use
  • Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
  • Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
  • Run the extractor fan during and after every shower

Check the sealant now and then. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, so if something doesn’t look right, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

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. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.

Bathroom resealing in Long Marston, done properly

Mr Mastic has more than 20 years’ experience of sealant work, and our applicators reseal bathrooms and kitchens across Long Marston. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and every job carries our 12-month guarantee. Common call-outs are for water getting behind the kitchen upstand and splits where the tray meets the wall, across shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and sinks & splashbacks.

Homes around Long Marston are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

What sealant work can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
  • Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
  • Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Kitchen worktops & upstands
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Sinks & splashbacks
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths
  • Wet rooms

What we are called out for in Long Marston

Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. Fresh silicone can’t grip the old bead underneath, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Water escaping at the shower enclosure
  • Mouldy sealant that has gone black
  • Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
  • Damp behind the bath or under the tray

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of All Saints (Church of England), walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. For a village or hamlet like Long Marston, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed, including the film left on the tiles.
  2. Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
  3. The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
  4. We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
  5. Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Long Marston: your questions answered

Do you cover Long Marston for bathroom resealing?

What should I tell you?

Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How long will the resealing take?

It takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. We’ll confirm how long your job needs when we quote.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Do you do commercial work?

What colours of sealant can you use?

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.

Is it worth trying it myself?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

What happens if it’s left?

Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but where mould is inside the silicone it generally comes back. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. In a small place like Long Marston, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.
