For landlords with property near Lenham station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wichling

For anyone letting property in or around Wichling, several properties can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

When it isn’t the sealant

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
  • Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
  • A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we seal

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

Common problems we fix in Wichling

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.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
  • Water getting behind the bath panel
  • Leaking joints on a shower screen
  • Gaps where the bath or tray has moved

Homes close to Church of St Margaret include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

What your quote should include

  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • What guarantee comes with the work

Questions from Wichling

Do you work for landlords with property near Lenham station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.

Do you cover smaller places like Wichling?

Yes, Wichling is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

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. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.

Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?

Yes, by replacing the sealant. Sprays can fade the marks, but cutting it out and resealing is what lasts. Airing the room well helps stop it returning.

Do I need to be at home?

If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.

Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?

Yes. Worktops, sinks and splashbacks are all part of the job, with a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows.

Where are you based?

Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Wichling, along with the rest of our area.

Is it messy?

We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints.

What happens on the day

The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating. Expect the work to take a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. Somewhere as small as Wichling, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
  2. The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
  3. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  4. When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
  5. The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, generally around 24 hours.

Before we arrive

  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Advice

Why act early in Wichling

A clean new bead makes a room look cared for, which matters if you are letting a property or selling it. A smeared, uneven DIY bead does the opposite. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Wichling, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

Why choose Mr Mastic in Wichling

  • White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
  • A 12-month guarantee on all work
  • Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels

DIY versus a professional finish

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
