Bathroom resealing in Sidlesham
A bead that has gone black, split or come away shouldn’t be left until there’s a leak. A photo of the joints helps when you phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email, and we’ll give you a clear price before any work starts. We work on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are black spots spreading through the bead and shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop.
Around Sidlesham, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Sidlesham as everywhere else we work.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Sidlesham
Sidlesham is within about 1 mile of 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. 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.
For an older house near a landmark such as St Mary Our Lady Sidlesham, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. If you let a flat or house near Chichester station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What happens if it’s left?
You don’t need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. Replacing the joint is generally all it takes. If we find a deeper problem, you will hear it from us. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Sidlesham, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

FAQs for Sidlesham
I let a flat near Chichester station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Will you come out to Sidlesham?
Yes, Sidlesham is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
Allow a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. We will confirm how long your job needs when we quote.
Can you just seal over the old silicone?
No. A bead laid over old silicone soon starts to come away. We remove the old bead completely before resealing.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Sidlesham and the rest of West Sussex, along with the rest of our area.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
Around 24 hours is typical, and we confirm the time for the product used. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.
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.
Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. Left alone, it soaks into the floor, the wall behind the tiles or the ceiling below. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.
What we are called out for in Sidlesham
Sealant laid on a damp, dusty or greasy joint never bonds properly. Traces of soap, bath oil and old sealant stop it gripping, so a rushed job can start to lift early.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
Managing a site like Sidlesham 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
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What guarantee comes with the work
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
What happens on the day
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. For a village or hamlet like Sidlesham, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
