Bathroom & kitchen resealing in New Winton, East Lothian
Bathroom resealing across New Winton and nearby, with every bit of old sealant taken out first and a one-year guarantee.
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Water getting behind the bath panel
Why deal with it now?
Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it won’t bond. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it, so the next person has twice as much to remove. In an older home around New Winton, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Why choose Mr Mastic in New Winton

Bathrooms and kitchens in New Winton
New Winton is close to 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. 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.
If you look after a building such as Ross High School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Prestonpans station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Whether the work is at height
- The number and length of the joints
- Mould in or behind the old joints
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.
Asking for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- The type of property
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- How we’d reach the joints
- Roughly how big the job is
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we will talk you through the work before giving you a price.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Do not leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
Worktop joints fail quietly. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, and the board underneath can swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on, so you can get on with your day. The job generally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Different surfaces, different methods
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the joints between floor and walls take standing water. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, working on the surface joints, not the tanking or drainage.
Basins & vanity units
The back of a basin gets wet every time someone washes. Corners behind basins are where mould tends to start, so it’s cut out and renewed just like a bath joint.
