Bathroom resealing across BN99: what to expect

A fresh bead of silicone changes how a bathroom looks more than most people expect. Mouldy silicone makes even a new bathroom look neglected, and a neat new joint puts that right in a short visit. It also seals the gaps that let water behind the bath. We work on sinks & splashbacks, baths and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are water getting behind the kitchen upstand and black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off.

When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  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, usually around 24 hours.

Bathrooms and kitchens across BN99

In BN99, bathroom resealing takes in flats, houses, rentals and businesses, in Goring-by-Sea and well beyond. Wherever the job is, all the old material comes out before anything new goes in.

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outside sealant still needs a dry, clean joint, so work across BN99 is planned around the weather.

Goring-by-Sea: If you look after a building such as Goring-By-Sea CofE (Aided) Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Goring-By-Sea station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Landlord and commercial work in BN99

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

What we are called out for in BN99

Black mould is behind a lot of resealing. Steamy rooms that do not dry out keep the silicone damp for hours, and mould that has grown into the silicone normally won’t clean off.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Leaking joints on a shower screen
  • Water getting behind the bath panel
  • Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
  • New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting

Can I do it myself?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:

  • Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
  • Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them

FAQs for BN99

Do you guarantee your resealing?

Yes. Our 12-month guarantee covers every job, and we are ARBOMaster approved applicators.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Do you work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels across West Sussex.

Can you just seal over the old silicone?

No. A bead laid over old silicone soon starts to come away, because silicone doesn’t bond to silicone. We remove the old bead completely before resealing.

What do you put in the joint?

The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

Is white the only colour available?

You are not limited to white: white, clear and colours to suit tiles and worktops. We can help you pick when we quote.

Are you insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured.
