Bathroom Resealing in Inveraldie
Problem with your baths, showers and worktops in Inveraldie? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
How it works
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. Outdoor work around Inveraldie depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, normally after around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any tricky access

Bathroom resealing in Inveraldie, done properly
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Trays, enclosures, screen profiles and wet room floors all need a flexible, waterproof seal. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, finished smooth so water drains away rather than collecting. If you are dealing with black spots spreading through the bead and splits where the tray meets the wall, we can put it right.
In and around a place like Inveraldie, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are generally the first signs.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Inveraldie and across Dundee.

How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Do not let bottles sit on the bead
Have a look at the joints every few months. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, so if something doesn’t look right, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Don’t wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.
What bathroom resealing looks like in Inveraldie
Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black. 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.
For an older house near a landmark such as Tealing Parish Church And Churchyard, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Rented homes near Dundee station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

Leave it or put it right?
Sorting it now is quick: it takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Wait for a leak and you may be looking at panels off, drying out and redecorating too. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
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, so you know where you stand.

Can I do it myself?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
White, clear and a range of colours are available. On a worktop we colour-match where the joint shows.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
Silicone is touch-dry quite quickly, but it takes longer to cure. Keep water off it for around 24 hours, or follow the cure time we give you.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
What the job involves on each surface
Shower trays & enclosures
A tray that rocks will split any sealant. We check for movement before we reseal, and if the tray needs refixing, we’ll say so.
Basins & vanity units
A vanity top has a joint along the wall and sometimes at the sides. Water that gets behind can damage the unit, so the joint is sealed in one unbroken line.

What else we do in Inveraldie
What we’re called out for in Inveraldie
Older sealant shrinks and hardens. Along worktops it tends to pull back from the wall, leaving a thin gap where water and food collect. Hot pans and harsh cleaners do not help.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
