How we handle remedial sealant in Curbridge
Movement and expansion joints fail when the sealant cannot stretch. The old sealant comes out and backing goes in to control the depth, then a flexible sealant matched to the movement goes in. Common call-outs are for leaks that keep coming back after resealing and caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area, on failed movement joints, botched or over-sealed joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant.
Somewhere as small as Curbridge, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re covered after we have gone.

Surface by surface
Movement & expansion joints
Bonding on three sides is a common reason movement joints tear. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it, so the sealant grips the two sides only.
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints hold grease and residue, so we spend extra time cleaning.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
- Clean sealant with mild products only
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
Clean gently: no scraping, scouring pads or harsh chemicals.
Movement joints that have split let water into the structure, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.
What affects the cost of remedial sealant
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- Whether the work is at height
- The number of rooms or windows
- The size of the job
- Working hours on commercial sites
No two jobs are quite the same, 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.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, please include:
- How we’d reach the joints
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If someone has resealed it before
There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To arrange one, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Do you need remedial sealant in Curbridge?
Silicone only bonds to surfaces that are clean and dry. Residue, moisture or dust left in the joint weaken the bond, so it starts lifting sooner than it should.
The problems people generally mention when they call are:
- A second bead peeling off the first
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
Schools such as Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
What to look for in a quote
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Are they insured?
Bathrooms and kitchens in Curbridge
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St John the Baptist, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

The process
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. It usually takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. In a small place like Curbridge, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Tell us about any water getting in

Your questions about remedial sealant in Curbridge
What guarantee comes with remedial sealant in Curbridge?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you cover smaller places like Curbridge?
Yes, Curbridge is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
What happens if the problem is the tray or the plumbing?
We check for that before we reseal. If the fault is elsewhere, you’ll know before any work is done.
Do the sealants smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
How do I get a quote for remedial sealant in Curbridge?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a short description of the job.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Where do you work from?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Curbridge and the rest of Oxfordshire.
What happens if it’s left?
DIY removal often leaves scratches and a film of residue, and any film left behind stops new sealant sticking. Careful removal is most of a remedial job. Around Curbridge, older homes often have timber in their 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. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Why choose Mr Mastic in Curbridge
