Our bathroom resealing service in CO6

Mr Mastic has more than 20 years’ experience of sealant work, and our applicators reseal bathrooms and kitchens across CO6. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and every job carries our 12-month guarantee. We’re often asked to deal with shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop and leaks into the floor or ceiling below, on sinks & splashbacks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.

There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is, including the tidy-up.

  1. First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
  2. Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
  3. Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
  4. When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
  5. We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

Bathroom resealing across CO6: local notes

Across CO6, from Braintree, Mile End and Coggeshall outwards, we see bathrooms and kitchens of every age. Family bathrooms, rented flats and hotel en suites all need their sealant and grout renewing in time.

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outside sealant still needs a dry, clean joint, so work across CO6 is planned around the weather.

Coggeshall: For an older house near a landmark such as St Peter ad Vincula, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Honywood Community Science School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents and landlords in CO6 can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
  • Wipe the sealant dry after showering
  • Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
  • Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet

Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, which is normally around 24 hours. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.

Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.

Should I try it myself first?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

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.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • A leaking waste, trap or valve
  • Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
  • Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant

Surface by surface

Baths

Most bath leaks begin along the long edge, particularly where there’s a shower over the bath. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone.

Basins & vanity units

A vanity top has a joint along the wall and sometimes at the sides. If water gets in, the cabinet underneath can swell, so the joint is sealed in one unbroken line.

Your questions about bathroom resealing in CO6

Can I do it myself?

Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.

What colours of sealant can you use?

White, clear and a range of colours are available. Where the joint is on show, we match it to the surface.

Do I have to be there?

That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

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. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure your landlord agrees.

Do you guarantee your resealing?

Yes, a 12-month guarantee. Good ventilation and gentle cleaning help it last.
