How we handle remedial sealant in Bailey's Hard
The wrong product in the wrong joint fails however neatly it’s applied. Out it comes, and in goes a sealant suited to the job. We work on failed movement joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and botched or over-sealed joints, and common reasons people get in touch are movement joints that have split or pulled away and worktop sealant that has shrunk and split.
Around Bailey's Hard, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Surface by surface
Worktops & kitchens
If a worktop moves when you lean on it, the sealant will keep splitting. It needs fixing down first, which we’ll point out.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould can sit behind the silicone, not just in it. We treat the exposed joint once the bead is out so the new sealant starts clean.
How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied, including the tidy-up. Somewhere as small as Bailey's Hard, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice

Also in Bailey's Hard
When to call us in Bailey's Hard
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 problems people generally mention when they call are:
- Torn expansion joints
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
Homes close to Church of the Blessed Virgin and Child include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Questions to ask before booking
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- How long the guarantee is
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- When the joint can take water or movement
Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Bailey's Hard: your questions answered
Do you work in hotels near Bailey's Hard?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
I let a flat near Beaulieu Road station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. More than one area can go on one quote.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We’re a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
What happens if the problem is the tray or the plumbing?
In that case, we tell you what we’ve found. You may need a plumber or bathroom fitter.
What happens if it’s left?
A failed seal rarely means a new bathroom. If the bath, tray and tiles are sound, remedial resealing normally puts it right. If they’re not, we will tell you. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Bailey's Hard, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will talk you through it.

How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Deal with small splits early
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Never seal over old silicone
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
Clean gently: no scraping, scouring pads or harsh chemicals.
Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Each use pushes more water behind the bead, into floors, walls or ceilings. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.
Remedial sealant in Bailey's Hard: local notes
Bailey's Hard is within about 2 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Schools such as Beaulieu Village Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. If you let a flat or house near Beaulieu Road station, a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.
