Bathroom resealing in Shoeburyness

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Shoeburyness

We fill the bath before sealing it. A full bath sits slightly lower than an empty one, so the new joint is not pulled apart the first time it’s used. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. If you have black spots spreading through the bead and a joint torn by a bath that flexes, we can help.

Shoeburyness mixes older houses with estates built more recently, so bathrooms range from long-standing suites to recent refits. Either way, the sealant and grout are normally the first things to fail.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Common questions in Shoeburyness

Is Shoeburyness in your area for bathroom resealing?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Shoeburyness is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.

Is there a guarantee on bathroom resealing in Shoeburyness?

Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.

Can I choose the colour of the sealant?

We can use white, clear or a colour to suit. Where the joint is on show, we match it to the surface.

Can you just seal over the old silicone?

No. It’s a common reason for reseals failing. We cut out all of the old sealant, clean the joint and start again.

How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?

After around 24 hours in most cases. We’ll tell you the cure time for the product we used.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels.

Are you insured?

Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.

Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?

Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then a colour-matched bead is laid.

How to look after the new joints

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
  • Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
  • Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
  • Squeegee the walls and tray after use

Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.

There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.

What happens on the day

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it generally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. A visit in Shoeburyness needs access to the work and a place to park close by. If the job is outside, mention gates, side access and anything above ground floor.

  1. First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
  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. We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on

What the job involves on each surface

Baths

Acrylic baths flex the most, while steel and cast iron baths move less but still settle when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.

Shower trays & enclosures

Water often gets past the wall profile of a shower enclosure. It’s resealed along with the tray joints, following the enclosure maker’s guidance on which side to seal.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Shoeburyness

Shoeburyness is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St George's Catholic Primary School, 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. For landlords with property near Shoeburyness station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. In the older streets around Church of St Mary the Virgin, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
