Bathroom resealing in Fowlis, done properly
Resealing is a small job that makes a big difference. Mouldy silicone makes even a new bathroom look neglected, and a neat new joint puts that right in a short visit. Just as important, it closes the gaps water would otherwise get through. We work on baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are water escaping at the shower enclosure and splits where the tray meets the wall.
For a place like Fowlis, the job is the same as anywhere: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. The journey and access are simply planned in advance.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are covered after we have gone.

Leave it or put it right?
Most of the work in a good reseal happens before any silicone goes on: cutting out every trace of the old bead, cleaning, treating mould and letting the joint dry. Skip those steps and even the best silicone fails early. Around Fowlis, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the bead dries out between uses.
A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning generally will not remove it, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.

Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes. Once mould has grown into the silicone, it generally can’t be cleaned out for good, so we cut it out, treat the joint and reseal with anti-fungal silicone.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- The type of sealant required
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The size of the job
- Working hours on commercial sites
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll talk you through it.

What the job involves on each surface
Shower trays & enclosures
If a tray moves underfoot, new silicone won’t last. Movement is checked before anything is resealed, and tell you if it needs re-bedding first.
Basins & vanity units
Vanity units have long, worktop-style joints against the wall. If water gets in, the cabinet underneath can swell, so a neat, continuous bead matters.
Do you need bathroom resealing in Fowlis?
Baths and trays move. An acrylic bath flexes under load, and a tray that isn’t fully bedded can rock. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
For landlords with property near Invergowrie station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

Fowlis homes and their sealant
Fowlis is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in.
Homes close to Fowlis Easter Church And Churchyard include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

How it works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Outdoor work around Fowlis depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors is not affected.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any tricky access
