How the visit works

Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. Somewhere like Lower Bayble may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  2. The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
  3. Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
  4. With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
  5. The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any tricky access
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

About our bathroom resealing in Lower Bayble

The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. The old sealant is removed to the last smear, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. New silicone goes on only when the joint is fully dry. We work on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & upstands, and the jobs we see most are cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone and leaks into the floor or ceiling below.

Bathrooms in smaller places like Lower Bayble work just as hard as those in the cities. Limescale is less of a problem with Scotland’s generally soft water, but mould still takes hold in damp sealant and grout.

You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Lower Bayble as everywhere else we work.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Lower Bayble

Lower Bayble is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.

In and around Lower Bayble, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Different surfaces, different methods

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Upstands and back edges are cut out, cleaned of grease and resealed, since cooking leaves a film that stops silicone sticking. The extra cleaning is what makes the bead last.

Wet rooms

In a wet room, the joints between floor and walls take standing water. They get anti-fungal sanitary silicone, working on the surface joints, not the tanking or drainage.

When it is not the sealant

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:

  • Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
  • Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)

If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Questions from Lower Bayble

Can you do bathroom resealing in Lower Bayble?

Yes, Lower Bayble is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.

Will you come out to Lower Bayble?

Yes. Lower Bayble is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland, including the islands, where work is planned around ferry crossings. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Should I try DIY first?

You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.

Can I choose the colour of the sealant?

There’s a choice: clear, white and colours chosen to suit the room. We can help you pick when we quote.

Where are you based?

We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.

Can I do it myself?

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

What we are called out for in Lower Bayble

Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Traces of soap, bath oil and old sealant stop it gripping, and a joint that looked fine soon begins to come away.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Leaking joints on a shower screen
  • A reseal done over the top of the old bead
  • Smears of silicone across the tiles
  • Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop

Whether the job is in Lower Bayble itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.
