- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
Signs you need bathroom resealing in Lydd
Sealing over old silicone is one of the commonest mistakes we find. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.
People generally contact us when they notice something like this:
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
Managing a site like Lydd Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Bathroom resealing in Lydd, done properly
Sealant that is mouldy, cracked or peeling is worth sorting before it lets water through. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a photo of the joints, and you will get a clear quote for bathroom resealing in Lydd. Common call-outs are for two layers of silicone, both failing and damp behind the bath or under the tray, on sinks & splashbacks, baths and shower trays & enclosures.
Smaller places like Lydd still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Whether it’s a cottage bathroom or a newer en suite, the approach is the same: old sealant or grout cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Lydd questions
Do you cover smaller places like Lydd?
Yes, Lydd is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you cover Lydd for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Lydd is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Do you guarantee your resealing?
Yes, a 12-month guarantee. Good ventilation and gentle cleaning help it last.
My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?
Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so the bead comes out, the joint is treated and new anti-fungal silicone goes in.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels in Lydd.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Opening a window helps.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Lydd and the rest of Kent, along with the rest of our area.
How the visit works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. Parking around Lydd is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We cover the area around the joints we are working on.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Advice
For landlords and businesses
If you manage several properties in or around Lydd, several properties can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and photos by email help.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Bathroom resealing in Lydd: local notes
Lydd is within about 3 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Lydd. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
If you live in an older home near All Saints Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Lydd is about 11 miles south-west of Hythe, in Kent. Across the TN29 area, we cover bathroom resealing for homes and businesses. Across Kent, we cover 922 places, Lydd among them. For nearby work, see our Brighton page.
All of TN29 is covered for bathroom resealing. We cover properties on Church Road, Station Road and High Street and the roads around them. Lydd is on the B2075, so it’s easy for us to get to. Neighbouring places we cover for bathroom resealing include Lydd-on-Sea (2 miles east), Greatstone-on-Sea (3 miles north-east), Old Romney (3 miles north), New Romney (3 miles north-east) and Littlestone-on-Sea (3 miles north-east). Larger places within reach include Ashford (13 miles north), Folkestone (15 miles north-east), Hythe (11 miles north-east), Tenterden (12 miles north-west), Cheriton (14 miles north-east) and Kennington (15 miles north).
Around Lydd

What the job involves on each surface
Basins & vanity units
Basins take less water than showers, but the joint behind them is splashed every day. Old sealant there often goes black at the corners, and we treat it exactly as we would a bath.
Shower trays & enclosures
Shower trays are sealed to the wall, and enclosures are sealed to the tray and tiles. Both take water every day, so each is cut out and renewed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- A tray or bath that’s cracked through
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Sinks & splashbacks
What happens if it’s left?
You don’t need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. A new bead often brings the whole room back. If something else is wrong, we’ll tell you. Around Lydd, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.
