Bathroom resealing in Balemartine
Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through and into the wall or floor. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. Typical jobs include a reseal done over the top of the old bead and shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop, across kitchen worktops & upstands, baths and shower trays & enclosures.
For a place like Balemartine, the job is the same as anywhere: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

What happens on the day
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it generally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. For a place like Balemartine, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Balemartine
With age, silicone loses its stretch. Along worktops it tends to pull back from the wall, leaving a thin gap where water and food collect. Hot pans and harsh cleaners do not help.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
For jobs in and around Balemartine, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

Should I try it myself first?
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.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Balemartine
Balemartine is within about 1 mile of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in.
In and around Balemartine, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
