About bathroom resealing in OX13
Sealant that is mouldy, cracked or peeling is worth sorting before it lets water through. A photo of the joints helps when you ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email, and we’ll give you a clear price for bathroom resealing in OX13. We work on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are two layers of silicone, both failing and splits where the tray meets the wall.
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen for a typical job.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.

Ask for a quote
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that is easy.
What’s near Kingston Bagpuize
We work in homes and buildings around Church of St John the Baptist, John Blandy Primary School and The Hinds Head pub. Well-known places in the area include Abingdon Community Hospital (5.1 miles east) and Hinton Waldrist Castle (1.7 miles west). For a walk, there’s Hitchcopse Pit.
Where we work in OX13
In OX13, bathroom resealing takes in flats, houses, rentals and businesses, from Caldecott, Kingston Bagpuize and Marcham to the quieter places in between. 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, but outdoor sealant still needs a dry day and clean surfaces, so outside work in OX13 is planned around the forecast.
Kingston Bagpuize: If you live in an older home near Church of St John the Baptist, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. If you look after a building such as John Blandy Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
What affects the quote in OX13
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Any mould that needs treating
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, let us know:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- A few photos by email, if you can
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The problem you’ve noticed
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. Whenever you’re ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.
Do not wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
Why deal with it now?
Sorting it now is quick: the work 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.
What your quote should include
- When the joint can take water or movement
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What insurance they hold
- Which colour the sealant will be
FAQs for OX13
Where do you work from?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover OX13.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
Around 24 hours is typical, and we confirm the time for the product used. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Let us know what needs doing and where, with pictures by email if possible. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
