Your questions about bathroom resealing in Staplestreet

I let a flat near Selling station. Can you help?

Can you do bathroom resealing in Staplestreet?

Can you quote for more than one area?

Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.

Is it worth trying it myself?

You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.

Where do you work from?

Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Staplestreet and the rest of Kent, along with the rest of our area.

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

Yes, we replace the mouldy bead. Cleaning products may lighten it, but the lasting fix is new anti-fungal silicone on a clean, treated joint. Good ventilation helps keep it away.

Will you leave a mess?

No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Bathroom resealing in Staplestreet, done properly

Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through and into the wall or floor. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We are often asked to deal with gaps where the bath or tray has moved and water escaping at the shower enclosure, across wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

In a village or hamlet like Staplestreet, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:

  • Failed grout lines across the wall
  • A tray or bath that’s cracked through
  • A leaking waste, trap or valve

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before you book.

Where we work in Staplestreet

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

Why deal with it now?

A quick bead over the top of the old one might look better for a while, but it cannot stick to what’s underneath. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it, so the next person has twice as much to remove. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Staplestreet, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Staplestreet

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Boughton-under-Blean and Dunkirk Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. If you let a flat or house near Selling station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

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

What affects the quote in Staplestreet

There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • How many areas need sealing

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

What to tell us for a quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • Where the property is

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add pictures by email if you can.

How to look after the new joints

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

  • Wipe the sealant dry after showering
  • Never pick at the silicone with a blade
  • Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
  • Give the silicone its full cure time

Wipe up standing water along the worktop joint and keep hot pans off the bead. The drier the joint stays, the longer it lasts.

Worktop joints fail quietly. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, where it can make the board swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.

When to call us in Staplestreet

Black mould is behind a lot of resealing. Bathrooms without good ventilation keep the silicone damp for hours, and once it has grown into the bead, cleaning rarely gets it out.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • A joint torn by a bath that flexes
  • Failed sealant on the screen profile
  • Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
  • Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt

Homes close to Church of St Michael include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

The process

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself normally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Staplestreet, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  3. The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
  4. We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
  5. Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.

Before we arrive

  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
