Mastic and sealant across TN22

Bathroom resealing in TN22: how it works

Mr Mastic has more than 20 years’ experience of sealant work, and our applicators reseal bathrooms and kitchens across TN22. We’re ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and every job carries our 12-month guarantee. We work on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are water getting behind the kitchen upstand and a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal.

You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers in most cases.

  1. We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
  2. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  3. Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
  4. A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
  5. We tidy up and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.

Where we work in TN22

TN22 has homes of every age, old and new, with plenty of rented property in places like Uckfield, Ridgewood and Buxted. Sound sealant and clean grout keep water out and rooms looking cared for.

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 TN22 is planned around the forecast.

Uckfield: Managing a site like St Philip's Catholic Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. If you live in an older home near St Saviour, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

How the job changes by surface

Shower trays & enclosures

The vertical joint where a screen profile meets the wall is a common leak point. We reseal it along with the base of the enclosure, sealing the side the enclosure’s instructions call for.

Wet rooms

Not every wet room leak is a sealant problem. We reseal the joints and will tell you if the water seems to be coming from somewhere else.

Leave it or put it right?

Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, and that’s a far bigger job than a reseal.

Common problems we fix in TN22

Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, so a rushed job can start to lift early.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
  • A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
  • A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
  • A reseal done over the top of the old bead

DIY versus a professional finish

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.

TN22: your questions answered

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

When can I use the bath or shower again?

Silicone is touch-dry quite quickly, but it takes longer to cure. Keep water off it for around 24 hours, or as long as we advise for that product.

How much does bathroom resealing cost in TN22?

Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.

Will it make a mess?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.

Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?

Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then we reseal in a colour to suit.
