About our bathroom resealing in Balintore
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. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. Typical jobs include leaks into the floor or ceiling below and water getting behind the kitchen upstand, across sinks & splashbacks, baths and shower trays & enclosures.
For a place like Balintore, 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.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

What happens if it’s left?
You don’t need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. Replacing the joint is generally all it takes, provided the bath, tray and tiles are in good order. If something else is wrong, we will tell you. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.

FAQs for Balintore
Will you come out to Balintore?
Yes. Balintore is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Fearn station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
After around 24 hours in most cases. We will tell you the cure time for the product we used.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured for every job we do.
What do you put in the joint?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Balintore.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. We always take the old sealant out completely.
Do you need bathroom resealing in Balintore?
Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Steamy rooms that do not dry out give mould all the damp it needs, and mould that has grown into the silicone normally will not clean off.
The most common problems we see are:
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
If you let a flat or house near Fearn station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
Questions to ask before you book
- When the joint can take water or movement
- How long the guarantee is

How we quote for bathroom resealing
You will get a clear quote before any work starts. It’s based on:
- The type of sealant required
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Mould in or behind the old joints
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- How we’d reach the joints
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The type of property
Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Simply email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and describe the job and send photos if you have them.
What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. For a place like Balintore, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed, including the film left on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
How to prepare
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Basins & vanity units
The back of a basin gets wet every time someone washes. Old sealant there often goes black at the corners, so it’s cut out and renewed just like a bath joint.
Baths
Acrylic baths give a little under load, and even steel and cast iron baths settle slightly when full. Loading the bath with water before sealing allows for it.
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.
A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.

Bathroom resealing in Balintore: local notes
Balintore 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 Balintore, as everywhere, bathroom resealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.
