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.
Wet rooms
Wet rooms rely on sound joints at floor and wall junctions. They get anti-fungal sanitary silicone, working on the surface joints, not the tanking or drainage.
About our bathroom resealing in Guardbridge
Sealant that is mouldy, cracked or peeling shouldn’t be left until there’s a leak. A photo of the joints helps when you email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk, and you’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. If you have leaks into the floor or ceiling below and splits where the tray meets the wall, we can help, on sinks & splashbacks, basins & vanity units and baths alike.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are normally the first signs.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Guardbridge homes and their sealant
Guardbridge is within about 3 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and 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.
Around Guardbridge, as everywhere, bathroom resealing is only as good as the preparation behind it. For landlords with property near Leuchars station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

How the visit works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Somewhere like Guardbridge 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.
- 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.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Clear the area around the work

What affects the quote in Guardbridge
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- Any mould that needs treating
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How many areas need sealing
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What we need to know
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- Roughly how big the job is
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The problem you’ve noticed
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll explain what’s involved and give you a clear quote.
Landlord and commercial work in Guardbridge
Landlords and letting agents in Guardbridge can book us as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can be quoted together, and we’re fully insured for the work.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Do not leave water standing on kitchen joints
Have a look at the joints every few months. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, and if anything looks wrong, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
When something else is needed
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- A bath or tray that moves because it isn’t properly supported
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
- Failed grout lines across the wall
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think before you book.

Questions from Guardbridge
Do you cover smaller places like Guardbridge?
Yes. Guardbridge is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you do bathroom resealing in Guardbridge?
Yes, Guardbridge is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?
Yes. Worktops, sinks and splashbacks are all part of the job, in a kitchen-suitable sealant, matched to the worktop where it’s on show.
How long will the resealing take?
It depends on how many joints there are and how much old sealant has to come out. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
After around 24 hours in most cases. We will tell you the cure time for the product we used.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
Do you guarantee your resealing?
Yes. Every job carries our 12-month guarantee.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
What happens if it’s left?
Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. Cutting it out and resealing with anti-fungal silicone is the fix that lasts. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
