Mastic and sealant across PA21

Our bathroom resealing service in PA21

With over 20 years in the trade, we reseal baths, showers and kitchens in homes across PA21. We are ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and the work comes with a 12-month guarantee. Typical jobs include black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off and splits where the tray meets the wall, across sinks & splashbacks, baths and shower trays & enclosures.

When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. The work normally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  2. Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
  3. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  4. With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
  5. The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.

Bathrooms and kitchens across PA21

In PA21, bathroom resealing takes in flats, houses, rentals and businesses, from Tighnabruaich and Kames to the quieter places in between. Wherever the job is, all the old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Our work covers the whole of Scotland, PA21 included. Journeys are planned ahead, and outside jobs are booked around the forecast. In the coastal parts of PA21, the sea-facing side of a building takes the most weather, and that’s where sealant normally gives up first. Good preparation and the right sealant help it cope.

Tighnabruaich: Around Tighnabruaich, as everywhere, bathroom resealing is only as good as the preparation behind it. If you live in an older home near Parish Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
  • Never pick at the silicone with a blade
  • Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
  • Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting

Keep bottles and razors off the sealant line, because they trap water against the silicone. A quick squeegee after showering keeps water from sitting on the joint.

There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.

What happens if it’s left?

Dealing with sealant early is a short job: the work takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating.

Questions to ask before booking

  • How hidden problems are handled
  • How long to leave it before use
  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • What guarantee comes with the work

For landlords and businesses

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. We can quote for more than one property at once.

For anyone letting property in or around PA21, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and photos by email help.

How we quote for bathroom resealing

The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • When we can work, for business premises

Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re unsure, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

Helping us quote

When you contact us, it’s useful to know:

  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • A few pictures by email, if you can
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.

When it isn’t the sealant

To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:

  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
  • Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
  • A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded

PA21: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Opening a window helps.

Can you just seal over the old silicone?

No. Fresh silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so it peels away and hides mould and water. We always take the old sealant out completely.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.

Where are you based?

Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

What sealant do you use?

Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.

Do you guarantee your resealing?

Yes. All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, and we’re fully insured.

Will it make a mess?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
