- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
The process
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom for a typical job. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- 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, normally around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Kinlochard
A bead that has gone black, split or come away shouldn’t be left until there’s a leak. A photo of the joints helps when you email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk, and you’ll get a clear quote for bathroom resealing in Kinlochard. We’re often asked to deal with gaps between the worktop and the wall and leaking joints on a shower screen, across kitchen worktops & upstands, wet rooms and baths.
Being further from a city doesn’t change the work: 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.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Different surfaces, different methods
Basins & vanity units
Basin joints are short and close to eye level: so we keep the line tidy and even, finished in a colour that suits the basin.
Shower trays & enclosures
If a tray moves underfoot, new silicone won’t last. We check for movement before we reseal, and if the tray needs refixing, we will say so.
Kinlochard homes and their sealant
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. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.
Whether the job is in Kinlochard itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

Why it’s worth doing now in Kinlochard
Dealing with sealant early is a short job: it takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating. Around Kinlochard, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
Have a look at the joints every few months. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, so if something does not look right, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Small signs come before a leak: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.
Your questions about bathroom resealing in Kinlochard
Is bathroom resealing in Kinlochard guaranteed?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you cover Kinlochard for bathroom resealing?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Kinlochard is part of that. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?
Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then we reseal in a colour to suit.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes, by replacing the sealant. Cleaning products may lighten it, but the lasting fix is new anti-fungal silicone on a clean, treated joint. Good ventilation helps keep it away.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
What we’re called out for in Kinlochard
Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Bathrooms without good ventilation give mould all the damp it needs, and once it has grown into the bead, cleaning rarely gets it out.
The most common problems we see are:
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
In and around Kinlochard, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

When it is not the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Failed grout lines across the wall
If you’re not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
