About our remedial sealant in Lionel
If a joint has been resealed and is leaking again, it’s worth a proper look. It helps to have pictures when you send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk, along with when it was last resealed. If you’re dealing with torn expansion joints and decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower, we can help, whatever the surface.
In and around a place like Lionel, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are usually the first signs.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

What we are called out for in Lionel
Some joints fail because water is reaching them from behind. A slow leak behind the tiles soaks the joint from the back, and the sealant lifts or goes mouldy from underneath.
The most common problems we see are:
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Lionel 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.

Leave it or put it right?
Repeat failures have a cause. Finding it, whether movement, water from elsewhere or an unsuitable product, ends the cycle. In an older home around Lionel, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. The work usually takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Outside jobs in Lionel need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
Getting ready for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Clear the area around the work
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Quotes for remedial sealant in Lionel
We do not publish a price list. The quote depends on:
- Whether the work is at height
- The number and length of the joints
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The type of sealant required
We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
What to tell us for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Where the property is
- The rough size of the job
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
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.
When it is not the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
- A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we seal
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Expansion joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Failed movement joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant

FAQs for Lionel
Will you come out to Lionel?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, including the islands, where work is planned around ferry crossings. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is remedial sealant in Lionel guaranteed?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
What if the leak isn’t the sealant?
We will tell you. If it’s a cracked tray, a failed valve or a leaking waste, resealing won’t fix it, and we will not reseal for the sake of it.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Ventilation helps.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured for every job we do.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
How long will it take to strip and reseal the joint?
That depends on how many layers there are and how many joints. You will have a timescale before any work begins.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Lionel
Lionel is within about 1 mile of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that doesn’t dry out.
Around Lionel, as everywhere, remedial sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Clean sealant with mild products only
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Don’t wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
Ventilation keeps mould away from the new bead: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.
Warning signs: peeling layers, mould showing through the bead, leaks after showering or cracks in a movement joint. Any of them means it’s time for remedial work.
