- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Bathroom resealing in Law
A fresh bead of silicone changes how a bathroom looks more than most people expect. Black, patchy sealant makes clean tiles look tired, and a clean white or clear joint fixes it quickly. It also seals the gaps that let water behind the bath. If you are dealing with gaps between the worktop and the wall and leaks into the floor or ceiling below, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In and around a place like Law, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are usually the first signs.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Do you need bathroom resealing in Law?
The wrong product fails fast. Decorators’ caulk and all-purpose sealants are not made for constant wetting, so they stain, crack or go mouldy before long. Wet areas call for a sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive.
The problems people generally mention when they call are:
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
Schools such as Coltness High School are buildings too, and washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

Bathroom resealing in Law: local notes
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. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.
Rented homes near Carluke station change hands often, and fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. Homes close to Overtown Parish Church include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
Law is about 2 miles north-west of Carluke, in South Lanarkshire. Law gets the same service as everywhere we cover: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a one-year guarantee.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Do not let bottles sit on the bead
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
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.
Watch for the early signs: 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.
Law questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Carluke station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Law?
Yes. Law is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
What colours of sealant can you use?
White, clear and a range of colours are available. Where the joint is on show, we match it to the surface.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes. Once mould has grown into the silicone, it generally cannot be cleaned out for good, so the bead comes out, the joint is treated and new anti-fungal silicone goes in.
What should I tell you?
Tell us what needs doing and where. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Every job carries our one-year guarantee.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
What the job involves on each surface
Wet rooms
Wet rooms rely on sound joints at floor and wall junctions. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, working on the surface joints, not the tanking or drainage.
Baths
The long joint down the side of a bath is where most leaks start, especially under a shower. It gets one smooth bead of anti-fungal silicone.
What we do, step by step
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower in most cases. Somewhere like Law may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- 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.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Clear the area around the work
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Related advice
Leave it or put it right?
You don’t need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. A new bead often brings the whole room back, as long as the fittings themselves are sound. If we find a deeper problem, you will hear it from us. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
