Common questions in Braepark
I’m in a tenement in Braepark. Could worn sealant affect the flat downstairs?
It can. Tenement floors are normally timber, and water from a failed seal can find its way down to the flat below. It’s worth sorting sealant and grout before it gets that far.
Do you work for landlords with property near Edinburgh Gateway station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is white the only colour available?
Most people choose white or clear, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes, we replace the mouldy bead. Cleaning products may lighten it, but the lasting fix is new anti-fungal silicone on a clean, treated joint. Good ventilation helps keep it away.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Do you guarantee your resealing?
Yes. All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will explain our choice.
How we handle bathroom resealing in Braepark
Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it and into the wall or floor. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. Common call-outs are for new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting and leaks into the floor or ceiling below, on sinks & splashbacks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
In Scotland’s cities, including the area around Braepark, many older flats had their bathrooms added into small rooms later on. Space is tight and ventilation can be poor, and steam with nowhere to go is what turns sealant black and grout grey.
Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Can I do it myself?
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. Everything old must be removed first.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Why it’s worth doing now in Braepark
You don’t need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. A new bead often brings the whole room back, provided the bath, tray and tiles are in good order. If we find a deeper problem, you’ll hear it from us. For landlords in Braepark, damp and leaks can be a Repairing Standard issue, so failed sealant is best replaced before it becomes a complaint.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why Braepark clients choose us
- Tidy, careful work
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews

Bathroom resealing in Braepark: local notes
Braepark 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. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.
For landlords with property near Edinburgh Gateway station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

When it isn’t the sealant
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before work begins. Sealant will not put right:
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A bath or tray that moves because it isn’t properly supported
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before you book.

How the visit works
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work starts. The work generally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. Parking in city streets around Braepark can be tight or controlled, so it helps to know about permits or nearby bays. For flats, mention the door entry system and any shared-stair arrangements.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Advice
What we’re called out for in Braepark
The wrong product fails fast. Decorators’ caulk and all-purpose sealants are not made for constant wetting, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. A bathroom joint needs anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
Managing a site like Craigmount High School? Then washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
