Bathroom resealing in G22: how it works
Mr Mastic has more than 20 years’ experience of sealant work, and our applicators reseal bathrooms and kitchens across G22. We’re ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and every job carries our 12-month guarantee. We work on baths, sinks & splashbacks and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are splits where the tray meets the wall and smears of silicone across the tiles.
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers in most cases.
- We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
How we quote
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What you get with us
- We agree the colour with you first
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet

Bathroom resealing across G22: local notes
Homes across G22 range from older properties to new builds, with plenty of rented property in places like Hamiltonhill, Ruchill and Colston. Bathroom resealing keeps bathrooms and kitchens watertight and looking cared for.
Homes in Scotland come with their own details: sash and case windows, harled walls and, in the towns and cities, tenement flats. G22 is part of the area we cover across Scotland.
Cowlairs: Managing a site like St. Roch's Secondary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. If you let a flat or house near Ashfield station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.
Surface by surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Laminate worktops swell if water gets into the core. A sound joint along the back edge stops that.
Basins & vanity units
Basin joints are short and close to eye level: so we keep the line tidy and even, in white, clear or a colour to suit.
Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.
Quotes for bathroom resealing in G22
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The type of sealant required
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, please include:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Roughly how big the job is
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
Getting a quote is simple: let us know what needs doing and where and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll take it from there.
Signs you need bathroom resealing
Sealant laid on a damp, dusty or greasy joint never bonds properly. Traces of soap, bath oil and old sealant stop it gripping, so a rushed job can start to lift early.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
Landlords, agents and businesses in G22
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
G22 questions
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
Usually after around 24 hours. You’ll get the exact cure time before we leave.
How long does it take to reseal a bath or shower?
That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. Allow a couple of hours for a typical bath or shower.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. As well as householders, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels.
Do you cover G22?
Yes. We cover G22, as part of our work across South East England, London and Scotland. To book, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes, we can. The old sealant comes out, the mould is treated, and we reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes. Our one-year guarantee covers every job, and we’re ARBOMaster approved applicators.
