Different surfaces, different methods
Shower trays & enclosures
The vertical joint where a screen profile meets the wall is a common leak point. We reseal it along with the base of the enclosure, following the enclosure maker’s guidance on which side to seal.
Sinks & splashbacks
Around the sink, we use a product suited to kitchens, and a food-safe product where it’s needed. The bead is finished smooth so it wipes clean.

FAQs for Ardbrecknish
Do you cover Ardbrecknish for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Ardbrecknish is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you cover smaller places like Ardbrecknish?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you’ll get one quote.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
Around 24 hours is typical, and we confirm the time for the product used. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can tenants book the work?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens if it’s left?
Tired sealant is not a reason to replace a bath or shower. A new bead often brings the whole room back. If we find a deeper problem, you will hear it from us. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear quote before any work starts.
Why us?
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- We agree the colour with you first
- A choice of colours where the product allows

Bathroom resealing in Ardbrecknish: local notes
Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in.
In and around Ardbrecknish, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Common problems we fix in Ardbrecknish
Black mould is behind a lot of resealing. Bathrooms without good ventilation keep the silicone damp for hours, and mould that has grown into the silicone usually won’t clean off.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
Rented homes near Falls of Cruachan station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.
Questions to ask before booking
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- How long the guarantee is
- What product goes in the joint
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
Don’t stand bottles along the bead, as they hold water against it. A quick squeegee after showering helps the joint dry.
A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Resealing early stops it.
What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work normally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Outside jobs in Ardbrecknish 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, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
- A tray or bath that is cracked through
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.
