Different surfaces, different methods

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Water behind a laminate worktop can make the edge swell. A sound joint along the back edge stops that.

Basins & vanity units

Vanity units have long, worktop-style joints against the wall. Water that gets behind can damage the unit, so the joint is sealed in one unbroken line.

About our bathroom resealing in Lyne of Skene

Resealing is a small job that makes a big difference. Mouldy silicone makes even a new bathroom look neglected, and a clean white or clear joint fixes it quickly. It also seals the gaps that let water behind the bath. We work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & upstands, and people most often call us about lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt and gaps between the worktop and the wall.

For a place like Lyne of Skene, the job is the same as anywhere: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Bathroom resealing in Lyne of Skene: local notes

Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and 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.

In and around Lyne of Skene, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. Rented homes near Kintore 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.

How we quote for bathroom resealing

Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • How many areas need sealing
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Which sealant suits the joint

What it costs depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

Asking for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.

Why deal with it now?

You don’t need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. Replacing the joint is usually all it takes. If we find a deeper problem, you will hear it from us. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.

There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Lyne of Skene: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords with property near Kintore station?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.

Is Lyne of Skene within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Where are you based?

Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Can new silicone go straight over the old?

No. It’s a common reason for reseals failing. We cut out all of the old sealant, clean the joint and start again.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we will quote it together.

What sealant do you use?

It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

Will there be a smell?

Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we are fully insured.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lyne of Skene

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. Several properties can go on one quote.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
  • A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
  • Failed grout lines across the wall

If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we seal

  • Kitchen worktops & upstands
  • Baths
  • Sinks & splashbacks
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units

What happens on the day

On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before we start. The work usually takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. For a place like Lyne of Skene, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.

  1. First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
  2. The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
  3. Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
  4. When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
  5. We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

How to prepare

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Clear the area around the work
