How the visit works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower, including the tidy-up. Somewhere as small as Upper Upnor, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any water getting in

Advice
Bathroom resealing in Upper Upnor, done properly
Sealant that is mouldy, cracked or peeling is worth sorting before it lets water through. A photo of the joints helps when you ring 0345 464 0079 or email us, and we will give you a clear quote for bathroom resealing in Upper Upnor. If you are dealing with a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal and splits where the tray meets the wall, we can help, whatever the surface.
Being in a small place like Upper Upnor makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

How we quote for bathroom resealing
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The number and length of the joints
- Mould in or behind the old joints
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- The type of property
- The address or postcode of the job
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
Surface by surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Kitchen joints need more degreasing than bathroom ones, since cooking leaves a film that stops silicone sticking. The extra cleaning is what makes the bead last.
Shower trays & enclosures
Shower trays are sealed to the wall, and enclosures are sealed to the tray and tiles. Both take water every day, so each is cut out and renewed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Upper Upnor questions
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Upper Upnor?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Will you come out to Upper Upnor?
Yes, Upper Upnor is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
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.
What colours of sealant can you use?
There’s a choice: clear, white and colours chosen to suit the room. We can help you pick when we quote.
Common problems we fix in Upper Upnor
Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Bathrooms without good ventilation keep the silicone damp for hours, and once it has grown into the bead, cleaning rarely gets it out.
People generally contact us after spotting something like this:
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
Managing a site like Wainscott Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
Questions to ask before booking
- What insurance they hold
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- What happens if the job turns out different
How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
Have a look at the joints every few months. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, and if anything looks wrong, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning usually won’t remove it. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.

For landlords and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Bathroom resealing around Upper Upnor
Upper Upnor is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Homes close to St Philip & St James include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. For landlords with property near Strood station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.
