How we handle remedial sealant in Hampstead Garden Suburb
A joint that keeps letting you down needs more than another bead. Send pictures when you call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email, along with when it was last resealed. We work on failed movement joints, shrunken worktop sealant and expansion joints, and common reasons people get in touch are dark patches showing through the sealant and sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface.
Hard London water leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps alike. In Hampstead Garden Suburb, remedial sealant is as much about a room looking cared for as about keeping water out.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

When it is not the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on

Hampstead Garden Suburb questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Brent Cross West station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Hampstead Garden Suburb?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is Crawley. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Someone sealed over the old bead. Can you fix it?
Yes. It’s slower than a standard reseal, because every layer has to come out cleanly, but it’s the only way the new joint will last.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We will tell you how long to leave the joint.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes. The old bead is cut and lifted with tools that suit the surface, then clean off the residue. We point out any damage that’s already there.
My shower still leaks after a reseal. Can you sort it?
Yes. We check it’s the sealant and not the tray, valve or waste, then the joints are stripped and resealed.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What the job involves on each surface
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Repeat mould generally points to a damp, poorly aired room. Along with resealing, we’ll mention if the room needs better ventilation.
Movement & expansion joints
Some movement joints have been filled with mortar or grout. We rake that out where it can be removed and seal with a flexible product.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Hampstead Garden Suburb
London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, so tired sealant is best dealt with early. London’s water is hard, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Managing a site like The Henrietta Barnett School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Rented homes near Brent Cross West station change hands often, and a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

Signs you need remedial sealant in Hampstead Garden Suburb
Water from somewhere else can ruin a good seal. A leaking valve, a failed waste or cracked grout feeds water behind the bead, and the sealant lifts or goes mouldy from underneath.
People generally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
- A second bead peeling off the first
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
Hampstead Garden Suburb is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean sealant with mild products only
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
- Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
Watch the joint over the first few weeks, particularly where the original failure was caused by movement. Should anything change, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Warning signs: sealant lifting at the ends, a second bead visible on top of the first, black mould under the silicone, or stains below a bathroom. Any of them means it’s time for remedial work.
