How we handle bathroom resealing in Inchree
Across Inchree, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Each one is stripped, cleaned and dried before new silicone goes in. Typical jobs include splits where the tray meets the wall and new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting, on wet rooms, sinks & splashbacks and shower trays & enclosures.
For a place like Inchree, the job is the same as anywhere: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Common problems we fix in Inchree
Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Bathrooms without good ventilation keep the silicone damp for hours, and mould that has grown into the silicone normally won’t clean off.
Look out for these signs:
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
Around Inchree, as everywhere, bathroom resealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.
What to look for in a quote
- How the colour is chosen
- Whether VAT is included
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Are they insured?
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- A tray or bath that is cracked through
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Inchree
Inchree 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. 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 does not dry out.
Whether the job is in Inchree itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How much there is to do
- When we can work, for business premises
- Any mould that needs treating
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- The type of property
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Roughly how big the job is
- Photos by email, if that is easy
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll take it from there.
How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.
- 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, generally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention any tricky access

Why act early in Inchree
Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it will not bond. Water creeps under it and mould follows. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.
Why us?
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

- 20+ years of sealant experience
Different surfaces, different methods
Baths
Acrylic baths give a little under load, and even steel and cast iron baths settle slightly when full. Loading the bath with water before sealing allows for it.
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.
Common questions in Inchree
Do you work in hotels near Inchree?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Do you cover smaller places like Inchree?
Yes. Inchree is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
How long does it take to reseal a bath or shower?
It depends on how many joints there are and how much old sealant has to come out. Allow a couple of hours for a typical bath or shower.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No, never. A bead laid over old silicone soon starts to come away, because silicone does not bond to silicone. We remove the old bead completely before resealing.
Is it worth trying 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.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What colours of sealant can you use?
You are not limited to white: clear, white and colours chosen to suit the room. We will talk it through when we quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
