Why it’s worth doing now in Englefield
Ripping out a bathroom is not normally needed. If the bath, tray and tiles are sound, remedial resealing normally puts it right. Where something else has failed, you’ll hear it from us. Around Englefield, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.
Why us?
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
- Colour agreed with you before any work starts
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- Every job guaranteed for a year
Remedial sealant in Englefield, done properly
Remedial jobs in Englefield generally fall into a few patterns: sealant over sealant, mould under the bead, leaks that come back and movement joints that have split. Each is stripped back and done again properly. Common call-outs are for over-sealed joints coming away and repeat leaks from the same joint, across botched or over-sealed joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and failed movement joints.
Being in a small place like Englefield makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

What else we do in Englefield
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out in most cases. Somewhere as small as Englefield, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- The joint is tooled and you are told about anything else we found.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Move anything stored near the joints

Englefield: your questions answered
Is Englefield in your area for remedial sealant?
Yes, Englefield is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.

Where do you work from?
We work from Crawley. We cover Englefield and the rest of West Berkshire.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we are fully insured.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
Can you fix a reseal that hasn’t worked?
Yes, usually. We check it’s the sealant and not the tray, valve or waste, then strip and reseal the joints.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
When to call us in Englefield
All sealant wears out eventually. Over the years it shrinks, hardens and gets colonised by mould, faster where ventilation is poor. At that point it has to come out.
The most common problems we see are:
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mark, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What preparation is included
- How much experience the applicator has
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
Different surfaces, different methods
Over-sealed & botched joints
A botched joint can hide two or three layers of sealant, and silicone residue is cleaned off the tiles too. Only a clean joint will take a new bead.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould that has grown into silicone doesn’t clean out for good. All of it comes out, and the joint is treated and dried ahead of a new anti-fungal bead.
