About our remedial sealant in Charney Bassett
Remedial work is what we do when sealant has failed or been done badly. New sealant over old, smeared beads, unsuitable products and hidden mould all need stripping out before the joint can be done properly. We work on mouldy bath & shower sealant, botched or over-sealed joints and leaking tray & enclosure joints, and common reasons people get in touch are worktop sealant that has shrunk and split and thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles.
Being in a small place like Charney Bassett makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

When to call us in Charney Bassett
Using the wrong product is a common cause: acrylic caulk in a wet area, a general-purpose sealant on a moving joint, or an acetoxy silicone on natural stone or some metals. None of them last.
The most common problems we see are:
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Peter, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
What your quote should include
- How long to leave it before use
- How hidden problems are handled
- How the colour is chosen
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
- Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Expansion joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Failed movement joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
Different surfaces, different methods
Leaking trays & enclosures
A cracked tray, failed valve or leaking waste needs a different fix. We say so rather than reseal.
Over-sealed & botched joints
Every layer has to come out, and silicone residue is cleaned off the tiles too. Only a clean joint will take a new bead.
How we quote for remedial sealant
We don’t publish a price list. The quote depends on:
- The size of the job
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The product the joint needs
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Whether it has been sealed before
- How we’d reach the joints
- A few pictures by email, if you can
For remedial sealant in Charney Bassett, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and we’ll agree the price before any work begins.

Why it’s worth doing now in Charney Bassett
Remedial work takes longer than a straight reseal, but not by much: the work 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 Charney Bassett can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Why choose Mr Mastic in Charney Bassett
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting

Your questions about remedial sealant in Charney Bassett
Is remedial sealant in Charney Bassett guaranteed?
All our work, in Charney Bassett and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you cover smaller places like Charney Bassett?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. As well as householders, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels across Oxfordshire.
Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?
Yes. There’s normally a reason: sealant over sealant, movement or another leak, so we find that first.
Do I need to be at home?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
What if the leak is not the sealant?
That is why we look for the cause first. If the fault is elsewhere, you will know before any work is done.
How long does remedial resealing take?
The number of joints and layers decides it. We will tell you before any work starts.

Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
What happens on the day
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on.

For a village or hamlet like Charney Bassett, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
