About our bathroom resealing in North Roe

Homes in North Roe have the same weak spots as anywhere else: the long edge of the bath, the base of the shower tray, the back of the basin and the line along the worktop. Each one is stripped, cleaned and dried before new silicone goes in. We work on sinks & splashbacks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about black spots spreading through the bead and a reseal done over the top of the old bead.

In and around a place like North Roe, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are normally the first signs.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Why act early in North Roe

Most of the work in a good reseal happens before any silicone goes on: removing all the old sealant, degreasing the joint, treating mould and drying it properly. Skip those steps and even the best silicone fails early. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

Why book with us

  • Colour picked to suit the job
  • A choice of colours where the product allows
  • Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas

Landlord and commercial work in North Roe

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

If you manage several properties in or around North Roe, several properties can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each.

Looking after it afterwards

How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
  • Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
  • Dry the bead with a towel now and then
  • Keep bottles off the sealant line

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.

There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.

Do you hold any approvals?

Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?

Yes, often alongside a bathroom. Where it’s needed by the sink, we use a food-safe sealant.

Do I have to be there?

It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.

When to call us in North Roe

Not every tube in the shop is meant for a shower. Acrylic caulk and general-purpose sealants aren’t designed for a joint that’s wet every day, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. Wet areas call for a sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
  • A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
  • Leaking joints on a shower screen
  • Black spots spreading through the bead

If you live in an older home near Methodist Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

North Roe homes and their sealant

North Roe is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Work on the islands has to be planned around ferry crossings and the weather, so the more notice, the better.

Around North Roe, as everywhere, bathroom resealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.

How it works

A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. For a place like North Roe, 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, usually around 24 hours.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
