About our bathroom resealing in Croftamie
Across Croftamie, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: the long edge of the bath, the base of the shower tray, the back of the basin and the line along the worktop. Every joint is cut out, cleaned and left dry before it’s resealed. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, sinks & splashbacks and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are damp behind the bath or under the tray and black spots spreading through the bead.
Bathrooms in smaller places like Croftamie work just as hard as those in the cities. Limescale is less of a problem with Scotland’s generally soft water, but mould still takes hold in damp sealant and grout.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Croftamie: your questions answered
Is Croftamie in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Croftamie is part of that. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.
Is Croftamie within the area you cover?
Yes, Croftamie is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
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.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
Where do you work from?
We are a Crawley-based firm. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?
Yes. Kitchen joints get extra degreasing before the new bead goes on, then we reseal in a colour to suit.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
What information do you need?
Let us know what needs doing and where. If we need more, we will ask.
When something else is needed
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Failed grout lines across the wall
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.
What we seal
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
What the job involves on each surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Kitchen joints need more degreasing than bathroom ones, because cooking grease stops sealant bonding. The extra cleaning is what makes the bead last.
Shower trays & enclosures
If a tray moves underfoot, new silicone will not last. We check for movement before we reseal, and if the tray needs refixing, we’ll say so.
How the visit works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. It generally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Somewhere like Croftamie may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Quotes for bathroom resealing in Croftamie
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- The number of rooms or windows
- Any mould that needs treating
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The type of sealant required
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Where the job is, and your postcode
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. Whenever you’re ready, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
Keep bottles and razors off the sealant line, because they trap water against the silicone. A quick squeegee after showering keeps water from sitting on the joint.
A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning normally will not remove it. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
Signs you need bathroom resealing in Croftamie
A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. An acrylic bath flexes under load, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
In and around Croftamie, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Croftamie
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. 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.
Whether the job is in Croftamie itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.
