Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Wix Green
A shower joint gets soaked every day. Trays, enclosures, screen profiles and wet room floors all need a flexible, waterproof seal. Each gets a bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. If you have new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting and leaking joints on a shower screen, we can help, on sinks & splashbacks, shower trays & enclosures and baths alike.
Homes around Wix Green are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Move toiletries away from the joint
Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.
Small signs come before a leak: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.
When to call us in Wix Green
With age, silicone loses its stretch. Along worktops it tends to pull back from the wall, leaving a thin gap where water and food collect. Heat from the hob and strong sprays speed it along.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
Homes close to Church of St Mary include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Wix Green: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Wrabness station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Can you do bathroom resealing in Wix Green?
Yes, Wix Green is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
You are not limited to white: clear, white and colours chosen to suit the room. We will talk it through when we quote.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes, by replacing the sealant. Cleaning products may lighten it, but the lasting fix is new anti-fungal silicone on a clean, treated joint. Airing the room well helps stop it returning.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No, never. A bead laid over old silicone soon starts to come away, because silicone does not bond to silicone. We remove the old bead completely before resealing.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Wix Green and the rest of Essex.
Bathroom resealing around Wix Green
Wix Green is within about 3 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
For landlords with property near Wrabness station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. If you look after a building such as Wix and Wrabness Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
Wix Green is about 5 miles west of Harwich, in Essex. Wix Green gets the same service as everywhere we cover: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
The process
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen in most cases. For a village or hamlet like Wix Green, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice
Why act early in Wix Green
You do not need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. Replacing the joint is normally all it takes. If we find a deeper problem, you will hear it from us. Older cottages and farmhouses around Wix Green can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
