Common questions in Craigo
Do you work for landlords with property near Montrose station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Will you come out to Craigo?
Yes. Craigo is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Do you guarantee your resealing?
Yes. All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, and we’re fully insured.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and the location. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Bathroom resealing in Craigo, done properly
A bead that has gone black, split or come away shouldn’t be left until there’s a leak. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a photo of the joints, and you will get a clear quote before any work starts. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, sinks & splashbacks and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone and splits where the tray meets the wall.
In and around a place like Craigo, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Older buildings can move a little, and that shows first in cracked grout and split sealant.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Craigo
Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, so a rushed job can start to lift early.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
Letting a property close to Montrose station? Then a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
What to look for in a quote
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- How hidden problems are handled
- How long to leave it before use
The process
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Outdoor work around Craigo depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, generally after around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

How the job changes by surface
Baths
Most bath leaks begin along the long edge, especially under a shower. It gets one smooth bead of anti-fungal silicone.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Kitchen joints need more degreasing than bathroom ones, since cooking leaves a film that stops silicone sticking. The extra cleaning is what makes the bead last.

We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- The number of rooms or windows
- How much there is to do
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Access and height
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

To make quoting easier, please include:

It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
Keep water off the new bead until it has cured, following the cure time we give you. After that, a quick wipe after showering helps keep it clean.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, and the board underneath can swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Craigo
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 includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.
If you live in an older home near Aberluthnott Parish Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
