How the visit works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen from start to finish. Somewhere like Hillhouse 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.
- We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Bathroom resealing in Hillhouse, done properly
Homes in Hillhouse have the same weak spots as anywhere else: 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. If you have two layers of silicone, both failing and smears of silicone across the tiles, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units alike.
In and around a place like Hillhouse, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are normally the first signs.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Hillhouse homes and their sealant
In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in. Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that does not dry out.
For landlords with property near Hamilton West station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. Schools such as John Ogilvie High School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Questions from Hillhouse
Can you do bathroom resealing in Hillhouse?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Hillhouse is part of that. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Do you cover smaller places like Hillhouse?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
The surface skins over fairly quickly, but the bead needs longer to cure right through. Keep water off it for around 24 hours, or follow the cure time we give you.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How long does it take to reseal a bath or shower?
Allow two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. We will confirm how long your job needs when we quote.
Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, where it can make the board swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.
Why it’s worth doing now in Hillhouse
Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, turning a small job into a building repair. In a place like Hillhouse, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
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. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

What the job involves on each surface
Shower trays & enclosures
Shower trays are sealed to the wall, and enclosures are sealed to the tray and tiles. Both take water every day, so each is cut out and renewed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Basins & vanity units
Basins take less water than showers, but the joint behind them is splashed every day. Old sealant there often goes black at the corners, so it’s cut out and renewed just like a bath joint.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
When it isn’t the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.
