Bathroom resealing near Sydenham

What happens if it’s left?

Tired sealant isn’t a reason to replace a bath or shower. Replacing the joint is normally all it takes. If something else is wrong, we’ll tell you. In a flat in Sydenham, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.

We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

Why book with us

  • Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
  • Every job guaranteed for a year
  • Tidy, careful work
  • Sealant colour chosen to suit

About our bathroom resealing in Sydenham

Mr Mastic has more than 20 years’ experience of sealant work, and our applicators reseal bathrooms and kitchens across Sydenham. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and the work comes with a 12-month guarantee. If you have splits where the tray meets the wall and leaks into the floor or ceiling below, we can help, whatever the surface.

Across London, a large share of homes are flats, conversions or mansion blocks, so a bathroom is often directly above a neighbour’s ceiling. In Sydenham, that’s a good reason to put tired sealant and grout right early.

You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Bathroom resealing around Sydenham

London has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. In a London flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal can reach the neighbours below, which is why it’s worth fixing early.

If you let a flat or house near Sydenham station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. Managing a site like Kirkdale School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Sydenham is about 3 miles south-east of East Dulwich, in Greater London. Homes, rented property, offices and hotels in Sydenham is covered for bathroom resealing, old or new, large or small. The work is guaranteed for a year. Our Greater London coverage runs to 764 places, and Sydenham is one of them.

Aftercare tips

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Wipe the sealant dry after showering
  • Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
  • Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
  • Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet

Clean the silicone with care: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.

Don’t wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.

Landlord and commercial work in Sydenham

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Sydenham and across Greater London. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured.

For anyone letting property in or around Sydenham, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.

How it works

We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  2. Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
  3. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  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, generally around 24 hours.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Advice

What we are called out for in Sydenham

Baths and trays move. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
  • New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
  • A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
  • Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt

As a London address, Sydenham can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

10 questions to ask before booking

Questions from Sydenham

Could a tired shower seal in my Sydenham flat affect the neighbours below?

Yes, it can. Water that gets past failed sealant or cracked grout can run under the bath or tray and show up on the ceiling below. It’s far simpler to replace tired sealant early than to deal with a neighbour’s ceiling.

Do you work for landlords with property near Sydenham station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, a 12-month guarantee. Good ventilation and gentle cleaning help it last.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we will quote it together.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work.

How do I get a quote for bathroom resealing in Sydenham?

There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.

How long does a bath or shower reseal take?

It depends on how many joints there are and how much old sealant has to come out. Allow a couple of hours for a typical bath or shower.

Surface by surface

Wet rooms

Wet room floors move slightly as they’re used, so the internal corners need silicone rather than grout. Where grout in a corner has cracked, we can replace it with sealant.

Baths

Baths move more than any other fitting, so it’s filled with water before the bead goes on. That way the joint is laid with the bath at its heaviest and isn’t stretched when it’s used.

How we quote for bathroom resealing

Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The type of sealant required
  • Whether the work is at height

Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Helping us quote

There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:

  • The address or postcode of the job
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email

For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll talk you through the work before giving you a price.
