Sealant work in MK77

How bathroom resealing works in MK77

Mr Mastic has more than 20 years’ experience of sealant work, and our applicators reseal bathrooms and kitchens across MK77. We’re ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and the work comes with a 12-month guarantee. Typical jobs include sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away and a joint torn by a bath that flexes, across basins & vanity units, sinks & splashbacks and baths.

There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom, including the tidy-up.

  1. We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
  2. We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
  3. Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
  4. Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
  5. We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.

Where we work in MK77

Our bathroom resealing work across MK77 covers homes, rentals and businesses, in Whitehouse and well beyond. The method is the same everywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.

London and the South East have homes from every era, from period terraces to post-war new towns and new estates. The right sealant depends on the age and materials of the building, wherever it is in MK77.

Whitehouse: Letting a property close to Milton Keynes Central station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. In the older streets around Church of the Holy Cross, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Common problems we fix in MK77

Not every tube in the shop is meant for a shower. Decorators’ caulk and all-purpose sealants aren’t made for constant wetting, so they stain, crack or go mouldy before long. Wet areas call for a sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive.

The problems people normally mention when they call include:

  • Splits where the tray meets the wall
  • Damp behind the bath or under the tray
  • Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
  • Two layers of silicone, both failing

What sealant work can’t fix

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:

  • Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
  • A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported

Why act early?

Dealing with sealant early is a short job: the work takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating.

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • What happens if the job turns out different

Surface by surface

Basins & vanity units

On a basin, neatness shows: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, finished in a colour that suits the basin.

Sinks & splashbacks

Splashbacks in glass, tile or acrylic meet the worktop in a long joint. It’s resealed in white, clear or a colour to suit.

Can I do it myself?

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

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.

Your questions about bathroom resealing in MK77

Do I need to be at home?

Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.

How do I get a quote for bathroom resealing in MK77?

Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

How long before the new sealant can get wet?

Silicone is touch-dry quite quickly, but it takes longer to cure. Leave it around 24 hours before it gets wet, or follow the cure time we give you.

Do you work for letting agents?

Yes, often. Several properties can be quoted together, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we are fully insured.

My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?

Yes, we replace the mouldy bead. Sprays can fade the marks, but cutting it out and resealing is what lasts. Good ventilation helps keep it away.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
