About our bathroom resealing in Minard
Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it into walls, panels and floors. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on baths, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are a reseal done over the top of the old bead and splits where the tray meets the wall.
For a place like Minard, the job is the same as anywhere: everything old is cut out, the joints are cleaned and dried, and new sealant or grout goes in. The journey and access are simply planned in advance.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re covered after we have gone.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Minard
Minard is within about 1 mile of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. 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.
In and around Minard, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
Wipe up standing water along the worktop joint. The drier the joint stays, the longer it lasts.
Don’t wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.
What the job involves on each surface
Wet rooms
Not every wet room leak is a sealant problem. We reseal the joints and will tell you if the water seems to be coming from somewhere else.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Upstands and back edges are cut out, cleaned of grease and resealed, since cooking leaves a film that stops silicone sticking. The extra cleaning is what makes the bead last.
Minard questions
Is Minard within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you cover Minard for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Minard is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee.
What colours of sealant can you use?
There’s a choice: clear, white and colours chosen to suit the room. We will talk it through when we quote.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Is it messy?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.

Common problems we fix in Minard
With age, silicone loses its stretch. In kitchens it often shrinks away from the back edge, leaving a thin gap where water and food collect. Heat from the hob and strong sprays speed it along.
People usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
Whether the job is in Minard itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

Why it’s worth doing now in Minard
The difference in a professional reseal is mostly what you do not see: removing all the old sealant, degreasing the joint, treating mould and drying it properly. Skip those steps and even the best silicone fails early. Around Minard, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
