Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Kilmuir
Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through into walls, panels and floors. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. If you are dealing with sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away and leaks into the floor or ceiling below, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
For a place like Kilmuir, the job is the same as anywhere: everything old is cut out, the joints are cleaned and dried, and new sealant or grout goes in. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

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 will say so.
Wet rooms
If a wet room leaks, the cause may be the tanking or the drain rather than the joints. We reseal the joints and will tell you if the water seems to be coming from somewhere else.
Do you need bathroom resealing in Kilmuir?
A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.
People generally contact us when they notice something like this:
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
For landlords with property near Invergordon station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What product goes in the joint
- How much experience the applicator has
- What happens if the job turns out different
Why deal with it now?
Dealing with sealant early is a short job: it takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating. In an older home around Kilmuir, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
Clean the silicone with care: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Kilmuir
Kilmuir 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, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. 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.
If you live in an older home near Parish Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
Kilmuir is about 13 miles north-west of Nairn, in Highland. Jobs in Kilmuir get the same care as everywhere else we work: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a one-year guarantee. Our Highland coverage runs to 253 places, Kilmuir among them.

How it works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Around Kilmuir, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- We cover the area around the joints we are working on.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice
When it is not the sealant
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
- A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
If you’re not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
