Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Move toiletries away from the joint
Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.

What the job involves on each surface
Sinks & splashbacks
Around the sink, we use a product suited to kitchens, including a food-safe sealant where that is needed. The joint is laid neatly so it’s easy to wipe.
Baths
Most bath leaks begin along the long edge, especially under a shower. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone, tooled so water cannot sit on it.
Woollensbrook homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you look after a building such as Westfield Community Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. If you let a flat or house near Rye House station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Common problems we fix in Woollensbrook
With age, silicone loses its stretch. Along worktops it tends to pull back from the wall, opening a hairline gap that lets water and crumbs in. Heat from the hob and strong sprays speed it along.
The most common problems we see are:
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
Homes close to Church of St Catherine & St Paul include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

For landlords and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can be quoted together.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
How it works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself normally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Woollensbrook, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We cover the area around the joints we are working on.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us if parking is tricky

What happens if it’s left?
Sorting it now is quick: it takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Wait for a leak and you may be looking at panels off, drying out and redecorating too. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Woollensbrook, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.
Why choose Mr Mastic in Woollensbrook
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- Neat joints and a tidy finish

Common questions in Woollensbrook
Will you come out to Woollensbrook?
Yes, Woollensbrook is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work for landlords with property near Rye House station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?
Yes. Worktops, sinks and splashbacks are all part of the job, in a kitchen-suitable sealant, matched to the worktop where it’s on show.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes, we can. We strip the bead, treat the joint and lay new anti-fungal silicone.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
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. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.
