Bathroom & kitchen resealing in Heogan, Shetland Islands

- Two layers of silicone, both failing

- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
What the job involves on each surface
Basins & vanity units
The back of a basin gets wet every time someone washes. Corners behind basins are where mould tends to start, and we treat it exactly as we would a bath.
Shower trays & enclosures
Water often gets past the wall profile of a shower enclosure. We reseal it along with the base of the enclosure, sealing the side the enclosure’s instructions call for.
How we handle bathroom resealing in Heogan
Homes in Heogan have the same weak spots as anywhere else: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Each one is stripped, cleaned and dried before new silicone goes in. If you are dealing with lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt and two layers of silicone, both failing, we can put it right, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & upstands and shower trays & enclosures alike.
Being further from a city doesn’t change the work: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. The journey and access are simply planned in advance.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
If you manage several properties in or around Heogan, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. We can quote for more than one property at once.
What we do, step by step
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. It normally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. Outside jobs in Heogan need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors is not affected.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Move anything stored near the joints

What we’re called out for in Heogan
Black mould is behind a lot of resealing. Bathrooms without good ventilation keep the silicone damp for hours, and mould that has grown into the silicone generally won’t clean off.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
For an older house near a landmark such as St Margaret's Roman Catholic Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Questions to ask before you book
- What product goes in the joint
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?

If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
Allow two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. We’ll confirm how long your job needs when we quote.
Is white the only colour available?
Most people choose white or clear, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.

Bathroom resealing in Heogan: local notes
Heogan is within about 1 mile of 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. Heogan has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
Schools such as Anderson High School are buildings too, and washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
Heogan is in the Shetland Islands. Homes, rented property, offices and hotels in Heogan can book us for bathroom resealing. Every job comes with our one-year guarantee. Across the Shetland Islands, we cover 63 places, Heogan among them.

We also cover the places around Heogan: Gremista (1 mile west), Gunnista (1 mile east), Lerwick (1 mile south-west), Sound (2 miles south-west) and Grindiscol (2 miles south-east).

Around Heogan
Locally, jobs take us to homes and businesses close to Gilbertson Park. Well-known places in the area include Shetland Textile Museum (0.9 miles west) and Montfield Hospital (1.3 miles south). For a walk, there’s Loch of White Ayre and Setter Hill.
Why it’s worth doing now in Heogan
Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it will not bond. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it, and the next reseal means two layers to cut out. 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.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

When something else is needed
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- A tray or bath that’s cracked through
Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before booking.
