How we handle bathroom resealing in Temple End

A fresh bead of silicone changes how a bathroom looks more than most people expect. Mouldy silicone makes even a new bathroom look neglected, and a neat new joint puts that right in a short visit. It also seals the gaps that let water behind the bath. We’re often asked to deal with new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting and gaps between the worktop and the wall, on sinks & splashbacks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.

Being in a small place like Temple End makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

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

How to look after the new joints

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
  • Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
  • Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
  • Give the silicone its full cure time

Treat the new bead gently when you clean: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.

There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.

Temple End questions

Do you take on hotel work around Temple End?

Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.

Do you work for landlords with property near Hitchin station?

Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Our base is Crawley. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?

Yes. Once mould has grown into the silicone, it normally cannot be cleaned out for good, so the bead comes out, the joint is treated and new anti-fungal silicone goes in.

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. Using it sooner can damage the bead.

Can you just seal over the old silicone?

No, and it’s one of the main reasons reseals fail. We cut out all of the old sealant, clean the joint and start again.

What do you need from me for a quote?

A short description and the location. If we need more, we’ll ask.

Does the resealing come with a guarantee?

Yes. Every job carries our one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Should I try it myself first?

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Temple End

There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Temple End. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and 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 site and facilities teams at buildings such as Hitchin Boys' 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.

Common problems we fix in Temple End

A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. An acrylic bath flexes under load, and a tray that isn’t fully bedded can rock. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.

The problems people normally mention when they call are:

  • Mouldy sealant that has gone black
  • Failed sealant on the screen profile
  • Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
  • Leaks into the floor or ceiling below

Rented homes near Hitchin station change hands often, and a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

What your quote should include

  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • What the cure time is
  • Is VAT in the price?
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are

What happens on the day

A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. It normally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. Somewhere like Temple End needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
  2. Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
  3. We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
  4. Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
  5. The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the work
