About our remedial sealant in Charter Alley
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 beat any new bead. Finding that cause comes before any new sealant. Typical jobs include products that weren’t meant for the joint and over-sealed joints coming away, on leaking tray & enclosure joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and shrunken worktop sealant.
Somewhere as small as Charter Alley, 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.
All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

What else we do in Charter Alley
Remedial sealant around Charter Alley
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Rented homes near Bramley (Hants) station change hands often, and botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. In the older streets around Christ Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Where is Mr Mastic based?
We are a Crawley-based firm. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Clean sealant with mild products only
If we have found a cause, such as a loose tray or a leaking waste, get it fixed, because the new sealant cannot hold back a problem underneath.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.
Why act early in Charter Alley
Mould under a bead cannot be reached by cleaning. Removal is the only way to get at it, and the joint treated and dried before resealing. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Charter Alley, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

What the job involves on each surface
Windows & doors
Wrong-coloured or messy mastic can be replaced for appearance too, matched to the frame colour.
Over-sealed & botched joints
Previous removal attempts can leave scratches or gouges. We work carefully to avoid adding to it, and point out any existing damage.
DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
What we do, step by step
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The visit itself usually takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out, depending on the amount of work. For a village or hamlet like Charter Alley, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

Related advice
When to call us in Charter Alley
Some joints fail because water is reaching them from behind. A slow leak behind the tiles soaks the joint from the back, and the sealant lifts or goes mouldy from underneath.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
Schools such as The Priory 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.
