Our bathroom resealing service in UB7

Mr Mastic has more than 20 years’ experience of sealant work, and our applicators reseal bathrooms and kitchens across UB7. We are ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and the work comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are often asked to deal with a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal and sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away, across sinks & splashbacks, kitchen worktops & upstands and wet rooms.

Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  2. The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
  3. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  4. When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
  5. The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.

Where we work in UB7

In UB7, bathroom resealing takes in flats, houses, rentals and businesses, from West Drayton, Yiewsley and Cowley to the quieter places in between. The method is the same everywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.

Hard water across most of the South East leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings. Whatever the job in UB7, surfaces are cleaned back properly before new sealant goes in.

West Drayton: West Drayton is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Martin, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Why deal with it now?

Dealing with sealant early is a short job: it takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Wait for a leak and you may be looking at panels off, drying out and redecorating too.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • How long the guarantee is

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

Can I do it myself?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

How to look after the new joints

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:

  • Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
  • Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
  • Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
  • Never pick at the silicone with a blade

Wipe up standing water along the worktop joint and keep hot pans off the bead. A dry joint lasts longer.

A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Left alone, it soaks into the floor, the wall behind the tiles or the ceiling below. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.

What sealant work can’t fix

We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
  • A leaking waste, trap or valve
