Common questions in Loans
Is Loans within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near Barassie station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes, a 12-month guarantee. Looking after the joint as we suggest helps it last.
Will there be a smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and we’ll quote it together.
How long will the resealing take?
That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. Allow a couple of hours for a typical bath or shower.
Is white the only colour available?
White, clear and a range of colours are available. On a worktop we colour-match where the joint shows.
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. Using it sooner can damage the bead.
Do you need bathroom resealing in Loans?
A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. An acrylic bath flexes under load, and a tray that isn’t fully bedded can rock. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal

Questions to ask before you book
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Which colour the sealant will be
What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on. The job normally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included, and we explain the cure time before we leave. For a place like Loans, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed, including the film left on the tiles.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, generally after around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Bathrooms and kitchens in Loans
Loans is within about 2 miles 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.

In the older streets around Church of Our Lady of the Assumption and St Meddan, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Rented homes near Barassie station change hands often, and a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t let bottles sit on the bead
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
Wipe up standing water along the worktop joint and keep hot pans off the bead. The drier the joint stays, the longer it lasts.
Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Resealing early stops it.
Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What we can’t put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.
