How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Do not add new sealant on top of old
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
Watch the joint over the first few weeks, especially if movement was the problem. Should anything change, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
If a joint has failed more than once, stop resealing it. Get the cause found first, otherwise the next attempt will fail too.
Remedial sealant in Brimpton Common, done properly
If a joint fails again and again, something is causing it. Movement, the wrong product or a leak from somewhere else will beat any new bead. We look for the cause before we reseal. If you’re dealing with products that weren’t meant for the joint and over-sealed joints coming away, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Brimpton Common, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

Remedial sealant around Brimpton Common
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you look after a building such as The Hurst School, 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. If you live in an older home near Church of St Nicholas, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. If you let a flat or house near Midgham station, a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

Leave it or put it right?
It’s easy to scratch acrylic, enamel or an uPVC frame cutting out old sealant, and any film left behind stops new sealant sticking. Careful stripping is where most of our time goes. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Brimpton Common, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

The process
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, and the area is left clean. Somewhere as small as Brimpton Common, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We protect the surfaces around the joint.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Your questions about remedial sealant in Brimpton Common
Will you come out to Brimpton Common?
Yes. Brimpton Common is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you cover Brimpton Common for remedial sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Brimpton Common is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Can you strip sealant from an acrylic tray safely?
Yes. The old bead is cut and lifted with tools that suit the surface, and the residue is cleaned away. Any existing damage is pointed out before any work starts.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Should I try DIY first?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Can you take off two layers of silicone?
Yes. We cut out all the layers and clean off the film, then the joint is resealed once.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We’ll suggest a colour to suit the surroundings, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Quotes for remedial sealant in Brimpton Common

- How much there is to do
- The number of rooms or windows
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether the work is at height

- Whether it has been sealed before
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email

Surfaces we seal
- Failed movement joints
- Expansion joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Botched or over-sealed joints

Different surfaces, different methods
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Repeat mould generally points to a damp, poorly aired room. We will reseal and tell you if extraction looks to be the issue.
Worktops & kitchens
A loose worktop splits its sealant. It needs fixing down first, and we will tell you if we find it.
