Bathroom resealing in RM19: how it works
A shower joint gets soaked every day. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. Each gets a bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone, finished smooth so water drains away rather than collecting. We work on basins & vanity units, baths and sinks & splashbacks, and the jobs we see most are black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off and water escaping at the shower enclosure.
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- 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, normally around 24 hours.

Bathrooms and kitchens across RM19
Our bathroom resealing work across RM19 covers homes, rentals and businesses, in Purfleet-on-Thames and well beyond. The method is the same everywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.
From Victorian terraces to post-war new towns and modern estates, homes across the South East and London cover every era. The right sealant depends on the age and materials of the building, wherever it is in RM19.
Purfleet-on-Thames: Schools such as Purfleet Primary Academy are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Letting a property close to Purfleet station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.
What happens if it’s left?
Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but where mould is inside the silicone it normally comes back. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- What guarantee comes with the work
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
Have a look at the joints every few months. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, so if something doesn’t look right, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Don’t wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.
How the job changes by surface
Sinks & splashbacks
Water getting under the rim of an inset sink can soak the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Worktop joints get wet and wiped every day. The new bead is colour-matched where it shows.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. We can quote for more than one property at once.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll give you a quote.
When it is not the sealant
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Common questions in RM19
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we are fully insured.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover RM19, along with the rest of our area.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
Around 24 hours is typical, and we confirm the time for the product used. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?
Yes. Where it’s needed by the sink, we use a food-safe sealant.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes, regularly. We can quote for several properties at once, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.
