Bathroom resealing in Manor House

Manor House questions

Do you take on hotel work around Manor House?

Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.

Do you work for landlords with property near Harringay Green Lanes station?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we’re fully insured too.

How do I get a quote for bathroom resealing in Manor House?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote.

How long will the resealing take?

That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.

Will it make a mess?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.

Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?

Yes. Kitchen joints get extra degreasing before the new bead goes on, then we reseal in a colour to suit.

Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?

Yes, we replace the mouldy bead. Sprays can fade the marks, but cutting it out and resealing is what lasts. Airing the room well helps stop it returning.

Bathroom resealing in Manor House, done properly

The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. The old sealant is removed to the last smear, then the joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould. New silicone goes on only when the joint is fully dry. Common call-outs are for leaks into the floor or ceiling below and water getting behind the kitchen upstand, across sinks & splashbacks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.

In much of London, period terraces have been converted into flats over the years, and bathrooms were often squeezed into small rooms. A compact bathroom that steams up every day is hard on silicone and grout, and homes in Manor House are no different.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

What we do, step by step

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower from start to finish. In Manor House, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.

  1. First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
  2. Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
  3. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  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, generally around 24 hours.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Manor House homes and their sealant

London’s water is hard, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps. London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, which is why it’s worth fixing early.

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Olave, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. For landlords with property near Harringay Green Lanes station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Manor House is about 1 mile north of Highbury, in Greater London. Jobs in Manor House get the same care as everywhere else we work: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee. Our area takes in 764 places across Greater London, large and small.

How the job changes by surface

Shower trays & enclosures

The vertical joint where a screen profile meets the wall is a common leak point. It’s resealed along with the tray joints, following the enclosure maker’s guidance on which side to seal.

Basins & vanity units

Basins take less water than showers, but the joint behind them is splashed every day. Corners behind basins are where mould tends to start, and we treat it exactly as we would a bath.

Aftercare tips

A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:

  • Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
  • Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
  • Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
  • Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant

Clean the silicone with care: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.

A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning usually won’t remove it. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.

Why deal with it now?

Tired sealant isn’t a reason to replace a bath or shower. A new bead often brings the whole room back, provided the bath, tray and tiles are in good order. If we find a deeper problem, you will hear it from us. In a flat in Manor House, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.

What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

Why book with us

  • A 12-month guarantee on all work
  • Neat joints and a tidy finish
  • White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
  • A sealant colour to suit the surroundings

For landlords and businesses

We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Manor House and across Greater London. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured for the work.

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

Honest limits

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:

  • A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
  • Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
  • Failed grout lines across the wall

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

Do you need bathroom resealing in Manor House?

Older sealant shrinks and hardens. Along worktops it tends to pull back from the wall, opening a hairline gap that lets water and crumbs in. Hot pans and harsh cleaners do not help.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Mouldy sealant that has gone black
  • Gaps between the worktop and the wall
  • Splits where the tray meets the wall
  • Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt

As a London address, Manor House can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • How the colour is chosen
  • What the cure time is
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
