What happens on the day
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere like Newlandsmuir may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. 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.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, generally after around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

What we are called out for in Newlandsmuir
Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, so a rushed job can start to lift early.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
If you let a flat or house near Hairmyres station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

Bathroom resealing around Newlandsmuir
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. Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that doesn’t dry out.
If you look after a building such as Duncanrig Secondary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Newlandsmuir questions
Do you cover Newlandsmuir for bathroom resealing?

Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses.
Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?
Yes. Where it’s needed by the sink, we use a food-safe sealant.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
How long will the resealing take?
It takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. We will confirm how long your job needs when we quote.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Don’t let bottles sit on the bead
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
Have a look at the joints every few months. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, so if something doesn’t look right, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Left alone, it soaks into the floor, the wall behind the tiles or the ceiling below. Resealing early stops it.
Surface by surface
Wet rooms
Wet rooms rely on sound joints at floor and wall junctions. They get anti-fungal sanitary silicone, and our work is on the visible joints only.
Baths
Baths move more than any other fitting, so it’s filled with water before the bead goes on. The joint is then laid with the bath at its lowest point.

When it is not the sealant
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray or bath that is cracked through
