Why act early in Jacobs Well

Repeat failures have a cause. Taking time to find the cause, whether it’s movement, a leak or the wrong product, is what stops it happening again. In a small place like Jacobs Well, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Why book with us

  • Full insurance on every job
  • White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
  • More than 20 years in sealant work

About our remedial sealant in Jacobs Well

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. If you have floor or wall movement joints that have failed and sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Around Jacobs Well, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Jacobs Well and across Surrey.

Common questions in Jacobs Well

Do you cover smaller places like Jacobs Well?

Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Is Jacobs Well in your area for remedial sealant?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Jacobs Well is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Can you strip sealant from an acrylic tray safely?

Yes. We avoid heavy scraping and use the right cleaner for each surface, so the new sealant bonds cleanly.

Where are you based?

Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Jacobs Well.

Do you guarantee remedial jobs?

Yes. Remedial work carries the same 12-month guarantee as all our work.

Will it make a mess?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.

What sealant do you use?

It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.

How long before the joint can be used?

It depends on the product. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.

What the job involves on each surface

Leaking trays & enclosures

Repeat shower leaks often come from a tray that flexes or an enclosure sealed in the wrong place. We check both before any new sealant goes on.

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Mould often spreads under the bead as well as through it. We treat the exposed joint once the bead is out.

How to look after the new joints

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

  • Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
  • Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
  • Check ceilings under showers for marks
  • Deal with small splits early

Ventilation keeps mould away from the new bead: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.

Mould trapped under over-sealed joints spreads unseen. When it finally shows, the whole bead needs to come out.

Remedial sealant around Jacobs Well

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

If you let a flat or house near Worplesdon station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. If you look after a building such as Weyfield Academy, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Homes close to St Peter's Church include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Can I do it myself?

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

The process

Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. It generally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Somewhere like Jacobs Well needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
  2. Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
  3. We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
  4. Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
  5. We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Mention any tricky access
