How we handle remedial sealant in Ash
If a joint fails again and again, something is causing it. A tray that moves, a worktop that is not fixed, the wrong sealant or water getting in elsewhere will defeat even a perfect bead. We look for the cause before we reseal. If you have sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared and caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area, we can put it right.
In a smaller place like Ash, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, from older cottages to newer builds. Bathrooms and kitchens here get the same daily wear as anywhere, and the sealant and grout show it first.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Do you need remedial sealant in Ash?
Silicone only bonds to surfaces that are clean and dry. Residue, moisture or dust left in the joint weaken the bond, and the joint starts to come away early.
The most common problems we see are:
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ash Cartwright and Kelsey Church of England Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Ash questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Sandwich station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Will you come out to Ash?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes. We take our time over removal, particularly on softer surfaces like acrylic.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Is it messy?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Ash, along with the rest of our area.
Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?
Yes. We’ll take all the sealant out, look for why it failed and reseal it properly.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The problem you’ve noticed
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that’s easier. Describe what needs sealing and we will talk you through the work.
When it is not the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- A tray or bath that is cracked
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
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 that we can handle for you.
Ash homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
For landlords with property near Sandwich station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. In the older streets around Church of St Nicholas, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

How it works
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out for a typical job. A visit to Ash is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
- We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- The joint is tooled and you are told about anything else we found.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a quote
Getting a quote is simple: let us know what needs doing and where. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will take it from there.
Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Don’t point over movement joints
- Clean sealant with mild products only
Do not let anyone seal over it later. Over-sealing is how many remedial jobs start.
Movement joints that have split let water into the structure, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.
