Bathroom Resealing in Scotland Street
Our applicators work in Scotland Street on bath, shower, basin, wet room, worktop and sink resealing. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly.
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Move toiletries away from the joint
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, which is normally around 24 hours. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, where it can make the board swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.

With over 20 years in the trade, we reseal baths, showers and kitchens in homes across Scotland Street. We are fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and the work comes with a 12-month guarantee. If you have damp behind the bath or under the tray and black spots spreading through the bead, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

When to call us in Scotland Street
Older sealant shrinks and hardens. Along worktops it tends to pull back from the wall, leaving a thin gap where water and food collect. Heat from the hob and strong sprays speed it along.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
Managing a site like Stoke-by-Nayland Church of England Primary School? Then 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.
What your quote should include
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Which colour the sealant will be
- How long the guarantee is
- What insurance they hold
What we do, step by step
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. Somewhere like Scotland Street needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- 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.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice
When something else is needed
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Water coming from the plumbing 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.

Bathroom resealing in Scotland Street: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
In the older streets around St Mary's Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Why act early in Scotland Street
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 Scotland Street, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
What you get with us
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- We’re fully insured
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas

Scotland Street questions
Can you do bathroom resealing in Scotland Street?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Scotland Street is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
What guarantee comes with bathroom resealing in Scotland Street?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
How much does bathroom resealing cost in Scotland Street?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. More than one area can go on one quote.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Scotland Street and the rest of Essex.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No. Fresh silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so it peels away and hides mould and water. We always take the old sealant out completely.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
