What sealant work can’t fix

We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:

  • Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
  • Failed grout lines across the wall
  • Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them

If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think.

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Kennethmont

Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. Each gets a bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone, finished smooth so water drains away rather than collecting. Typical jobs include sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away and leaking joints on a shower screen, on kitchen worktops & upstands, baths and wet rooms.

A bathroom in a place like Kennethmont gets the same daily wear as one in a city flat. Limescale is less of a problem with Scotland’s generally soft water, but mould still takes hold in damp sealant and grout.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

DIY versus a professional finish

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

Why it’s worth doing now in Kennethmont

A failed joint gets more costly to put right the longer it’s left. Water that gets behind a bath soaks into the floor, the panel and sometimes the ceiling below, turning a small job into a building repair. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.

There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Why us?

  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
  • Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
  • Domestic, commercial and hotel work
  • Sealant colour chosen to suit

Looking after it afterwards

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:

  • Keep bottles off the sealant line
  • Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
  • Dry worktop joints after washing up
  • Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead

Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, following the cure time we give you. After that, a quick wipe after showering helps keep it clean.

A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Kennethmont

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.

In the older streets around Kennethmont Parish Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. If you let a flat or house near Insch station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

How it works

On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. For a place like Kennethmont, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.

  1. First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
  2. Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
  3. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  4. With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
  5. The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.

How to prepare

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Questions from Kennethmont

Is Kennethmont within the area you cover?

Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Do you cover Kennethmont for bathroom resealing?

Yes, Kennethmont is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Where do you work from?

We are a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.

Is white the only colour available?

There’s a choice: white, clear and colours to suit tiles and worktops. We can help you pick when we quote.

What sealant do you use?

We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we’ll explain our choice.

Can new silicone go straight over the old?

No. Fresh silicone can’t stick to the old bead, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. We always take the old sealant out completely.

How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?

Around 24 hours is typical, and we confirm the time for the product used. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.
