Common problems we fix in Lumphanan
Baths and trays move. 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.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
In and around Lumphanan, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

About our bathroom resealing in Lumphanan
The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. The old sealant is removed to the last smear, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. If you have water getting behind the bath panel and a joint torn by a bath that flexes, we can help, whatever the surface.
In and around a place like Lumphanan, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are generally the first signs.
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.

What happens on the day
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. Outside jobs in Lumphanan need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for 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.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
How to prepare
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice
What affects the quote in Lumphanan
There’s no set price list. What we look at:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The type of sealant required
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
What we need to know
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Where the property is
To get a quote, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the location and a short description of the problem. You’ll have a clear quote before we start.

What we cannot put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Letting agents and landlords in Lumphanan can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured for the work.
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.

Lumphanan homes and their sealant
In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of 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 doesn’t dry out.
For an older house near a landmark such as Stothart Memorial Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the bead dries out between uses.
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.
