Bathroom Resealing in Southwood
Baths, showers and worktops in Southwood need attention? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, with a one-year guarantee.

- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
Bathroom resealing in Southwood, done properly
Kitchens need the same care as bathrooms. Worktop upstands, sink edges and splashback joints get wet every single day, and water behind a laminate worktop can make it swell. Kitchen joints get a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows. Typical jobs include black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off and new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting, on baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.
Smaller places like Southwood still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Older or newer, every room gets the same approach: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

Bathroom resealing around Southwood
Southwood has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up 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 John the Baptist, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Southwood Infant 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.
Southwood is about 1 mile west of Farnborough, in Hampshire. Our applicators cover bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Southwood and nearby, as part of our work across Hampshire. Southwood is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire where we work for bathroom resealing. Reading is on our list too, about 13 miles from Southwood.
Work in GU14 and GU51 is quoted and booked the same way as anywhere else. That includes homes and businesses on Fleet Road, Kennels Lane and Summit Avenue.

The nearest railway station is Fleet station, roughly 1.5 miles west of the centre.

Open spaces near Southwood include Aunt's Pool and Ball Hill.
When to call us in Southwood
Not every tube in the shop is meant for a shower. Decorators’ caulk and all-purpose sealants are not made for constant wetting, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. A bathroom joint needs anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
For landlords with property near Fleet station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
Don’t stand bottles along the bead, because they trap water against the silicone. A quick squeegee after showering keeps water from sitting on the joint.
A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.
How we quote for bathroom resealing
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Any mould that needs treating
- Whether the work is at height
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Any working-time requirements on site
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- The address or postcode of the job
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- If someone has resealed it before
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What happens on the day
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating. The job generally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Parking around Southwood is generally 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.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- 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.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Questions from Southwood
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Fleet station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you take on hotel work around Southwood?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
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.
What should I tell you?
A short description and the location. If we need more, we will ask.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
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.

Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
