Common questions in Great Missenden
I let a flat near Great Missenden station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Is Great Missenden in your area for remedial sealant?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Great Missenden is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
Is there any odour?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
Can you strip sealant from an acrylic tray safely?
Yes. The old bead is cut and lifted with tools that suit the surface, and the residue is cleaned away. We point out any damage that is already there.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Great Missenden.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
How do I get a quote for remedial sealant in Great Missenden?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.
How we handle remedial sealant in Great Missenden
Decorators’ caulk in a shower, bathroom silicone on a window, a rigid filler in a movement joint fails however neatly it’s applied. We take it out and use a sealant made for that joint. If you’re dealing with sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface and thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles, we can put it right, on shrunken worktop sealant, mouldy bath & shower sealant and leaking tray & enclosure joints alike.
Around Great Missenden, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What the job involves on each surface
Leaking trays & enclosures
Where the joints are the problem, every bead is stripped and resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tray edges and screen profiles included.
Over-sealed & botched joints
A botched joint can hide two or three layers of sealant, including the smears and film on surrounding tiles. Only a clean joint will take a new bead.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Why it’s worth doing now in Great Missenden
Mould under a bead can’t be reached by cleaning. Removal is the only way to get at it, so the joint can be treated and resealed. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Great Missenden, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

What else we do in Great Missenden
Great Missenden homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you look after a building such as Great Missenden CofE Combined 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. Homes close to Church of Saints Peter and Paul include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Should I try it myself first?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
