How we quote for remedial sealant
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Any mould that needs treating
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How much there is to do
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- The rough size of the job
- If someone has resealed it before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we’ll talk you through the work before giving you a price.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.

Shefford Woodlands homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

Can I do it myself?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Why act early in Shefford Woodlands
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but rarely a lot: the work takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Shefford Woodlands, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

Signs you need remedial sealant in Shefford Woodlands
A lot of failed joints have been sealed over rather than replaced. Silicone does not bond to silicone, so the top layer lifts and water and mould collect between the two.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
If you live in an older home near Church of St Stephen, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Shefford Woodlands, along with the rest of our area.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Can failed expansion joints be resealed?
Yes. If a joint has been filled with mortar or rigid filler, we rake it out where possible, then the joint is sealed properly.
Can you strip sealant from an acrylic tray safely?
Yes, with care. The old bead is cut and lifted with tools that suit the surface, then clean off the residue. Any existing damage is pointed out before work begins.
How the visit works
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. For a village or hamlet like Shefford Woodlands, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We protect the surfaces around the joint.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
