About our bathroom resealing in Ulcombe
A reseal only lasts if the joint is properly prepared. Every bit of old silicone comes out, down to the thin film left on the tiles, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. Common call-outs are for black spots spreading through the bead and gaps where the bath or tray has moved, across basins & vanity units, baths and sinks & splashbacks.
In a village or hamlet like Ulcombe, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Ulcombe: your questions answered
Will you come out to Ulcombe?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is Ulcombe in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Ulcombe is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes. Once mould has grown into the silicone, it generally can’t be cleaned out for good, so we cut it out, treat the joint and reseal with anti-fungal silicone.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes, a one-year guarantee. Good ventilation and gentle cleaning help it last.
How much does bathroom resealing cost in Ulcombe?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Ulcombe and the rest of Kent.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the bead dries out between uses.
A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning usually will not remove it, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
When it isn’t the sealant
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray or bath that’s cracked through
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before booking.
What we seal
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Sinks & splashbacks
How the job changes by surface
Wet rooms
A wet room floor and its walls can move independently, so the corners need a flexible seal, not grout. Where grout in a corner has cracked, we can replace it with sealant.
Baths
Most bath leaks begin along the long edge, especially under a shower. It gets one smooth bead of anti-fungal silicone, tooled so water cannot sit on it.
Bathroom resealing around Ulcombe
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.
In the older streets around All Saints Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ulcombe Church of England Primary 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.

What affects the quote in Ulcombe
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need sealing
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether the work is at height
- How much there is to do
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

Related advice
Do you need bathroom resealing in Ulcombe?
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.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
For landlords with property near Harrietsham station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
