Different surfaces, different methods
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Repeat mould usually points to a damp, poorly aired room. We’ll reseal and tell you if extraction looks to be the issue.
Windows & doors
Failed frame mastic is often hard, cracked and in several layers. We remove it all and clean back to sound surfaces.

Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
- Check trays and worktops don’t move
Ventilation keeps mould away from the new bead: use the extractor or open a window after showering.
Don’t keep resealing the same joint. Have someone find out why, or the next bead will go the same way.
What happens if it’s left?
Remedial work takes longer than a straight reseal, but rarely a lot: it takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. Older cottages and farmhouses around Balls Green can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

Where is Mr Mastic based?
We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes. We avoid heavy scraping and use the right cleaner for each surface, so the new sealant bonds cleanly.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and the location, plus photos if you have them. We will ask anything else we need to know.
What if the leak isn’t the sealant?
We check for that before we reseal. If the fault is elsewhere, you will know before any work is done.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Do you need remedial sealant in Balls Green?
Even good sealant ages. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks. At that point it has to come out.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Black mould underneath the bead
- Torn expansion joints
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- A second bead peeling off the first
Schools such as St Michael's Primary School are buildings too, and washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
What your quote should include
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are

What remedial sealant looks like in Balls Green
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you let a flat or house near Ashurst Kent station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. For an older house near a landmark such as The church of St Michael and All Angels, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. In a small place like Balls Green, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
