Bathroom resealing across UB8: what to expect
Resealing is a small job that makes a big difference. Mouldy silicone makes even a new bathroom look neglected, and a clean white or clear joint fixes it quickly. Just as important, it closes the gaps water would otherwise get through. Common call-outs are for splits where the tray meets the wall and shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & upstands.
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.

Bathrooms and kitchens across UB8
UB8 has homes of every age, old and new, and in places like Hayes, Hillingdon and Uxbridge there’s plenty of rented property too. Sound sealant and clean grout keep water out and rooms looking cared for.
From Victorian terraces to post-war new towns and modern estates, homes across the South East and London cover every era. Each needs the right sealant for its age and materials, wherever it is in UB8.
Uxbridge: If you live in an older home near Church of St Andrew, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Managing a site like Whitehall Junior School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
Honest limits
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Failed grout lines across the wall
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
How the job changes by surface
Wet rooms
Not every wet room leak is a sealant problem. We check the joints and say so if the fault looks to be elsewhere.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Water behind a laminate worktop can make the edge swell. A sound joint along the back edge stops that, as long as the worktop itself is firmly fixed.
Leave it or put it right?
Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again.

Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
Have a look at the joints every few months. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, so if something does not look right, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, and the board underneath can swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.
UB8: your questions answered
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
What sealant do you use?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.
How much does bathroom resealing cost in UB8?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
