- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
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 that has grown into silicone doesn’t clean out for good. The sealant is cut out completely, the joint treated with a mould remover and dried before anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in.
Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Chelsea
Not every leak is a sealant leak. A cracked tray, a failed shower valve or a leaking waste can look just the same. When the fault is elsewhere, we say so instead of resealing for the sake of it. Typical jobs include mould trapped under a layer of silicone and caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area, on botched or over-sealed joints, expansion joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant.
London’s water is hard, so limescale builds up along sealant lines, in grout and on fittings. In Chelsea, remedial sealant is as much about a room looking cared for as about keeping water out.
Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

How the visit works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. For a job in Chelsea, parking and access are the things to plan: let us know about parking, the floor we will be working on and any lift or shared entrance.
- 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.
- We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
- The joint is tooled and you are told about anything else we found.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any tricky access

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Chelsea and across Greater London. Several sites can go on one quote, and we’re fully insured for the work.
What we’re called out for in Chelsea
Joint depth matters. Sealant packed too deep, or stuck to the back of the joint as well as the sides, can’t stretch, so it tears when the joint moves. Backing sets the depth and stops that.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- A second bead peeling off the first
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
If you look after a building such as Oratory Roman Catholic Primary 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.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they’re fully insured
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- What product goes in the joint
Remedial sealant in Chelsea: local notes
Chelsea has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. London’s water is hard, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
For an older house near a landmark such as Former Welsh Congregational Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Letting a property close to London Victoria station? Then botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.
Chelsea is about 2 miles south-east of Kensington, in Greater London. Homes, rented property, offices and hotels in Chelsea is covered for remedial sealant. The work is guaranteed for a year. Chelsea is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we work.

Questions from Chelsea
Is parking an issue for remedial sealant in Chelsea?
It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.
Do you work for landlords with property near London Victoria station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we agree the colour with you before any work starts.
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.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes. We take our time over removal, particularly on softer surfaces like acrylic.
How do I get a quote for remedial sealant in Chelsea?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing and where.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
- Deal with small splits early
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
- Don’t add new sealant on top of old
If the joint ever needs renewing, have it cut out, not sealed over. Over-sealing is how many remedial jobs start.
If a joint has failed more than once, stop resealing it. Get the cause found first, otherwise the next attempt will fail too.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right 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.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

What happens if it’s left?
It’s easy to scratch acrylic, enamel or an uPVC frame cutting out old sealant, and the residue left behind stops the next bead bonding. Careful removal is most of a remedial job. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in Chelsea, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
