About our remedial sealant in Moreton
With more than 20 years’ experience, our applicators have seen most of the ways sealant can fail. We’re ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and remedial work carries our one-year guarantee. We are often asked to deal with a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed and movement joints that have split or pulled away, across leaking tray & enclosure joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and expansion joints.
Homes around Moreton are mostly 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.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere like Moreton needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

What we are called out for in Moreton
Silicone only bonds to surfaces that are clean and dry. Soap film, dust, damp or old residue stop it gripping, so it starts lifting sooner than it should.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- A second bead peeling off the first
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
Homes close to Church of St Mary the Virgin include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
What to look for in a quote
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- How long to leave it before use

FAQs for Moreton
Do you cover smaller places like Moreton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is Moreton in your area for remedial sealant?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Moreton is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?
Yes. There’s normally a reason: sealant over sealant, movement or another leak, and we deal with the cause first.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes. Residue is removed with a product suited to the surface rather than scraped hard.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

What the job involves on each surface
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Repeat mould normally points to a damp, poorly aired room. Along with resealing, we’ll mention if the room needs better ventilation.
Movement & expansion joints
Movement joints in floors, walls and façades need a flexible sealant set to the right depth. Failed sealant is cut out, backing rod or tape is fitted and the joint resealed with a low-modulus product.
When it isn’t the sealant
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
- Movement from fittings that aren’t supported
- Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.
