How we handle bathroom resealing in Charlestown of Aberlour
Across Charlestown of Aberlour, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Every joint is cut out, cleaned and left dry before it’s resealed. If you have gaps where the bath or tray has moved and lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
A bathroom in a place like Charlestown of Aberlour gets the same daily wear as one in a city flat. Generally soft Scottish water means less limescale, but steam still lets mould into sealant and grout.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Do not leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Do not let bottles sit on the bead
Have a look at the joints every few months. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, so if something does not look right, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Small signs come before a leak: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. Any of these means the joint needs attention.

What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Somewhere like Charlestown of Aberlour may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Mention any tricky access
- Clear the area around the work
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.

We give you the cure time before we leave, and it’s usually around 24 hours. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Bathrooms and kitchens in Charlestown of Aberlour
Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that doesn’t dry out. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.
Homes close to Aberlour Parish Church include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. In and around Charlestown of Aberlour, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
What the job involves on each surface
Sinks & splashbacks
Around the sink, we use a product suited to kitchens, including a food-safe sealant where that is needed. The joint is laid neatly so it’s easy to wipe.
Baths
Acrylic baths give a little under load, while steel and cast iron baths move less but still settle when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.
What sealant work can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think before you book.
