About our bathroom resealing in Parkhouse
Kitchens need the same care as bathrooms. Worktop upstands, sink edges and splashback joints all take splashes every day, and water that gets into the back edge of a worktop can swell the board. We reseal them with a kitchen-suitable silicone, matched to the worktop where it’s on show. If you have a joint torn by a bath that flexes and water escaping at the shower enclosure, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
A bathroom in a place like Parkhouse gets the same daily wear as one in a city flat. Limescale is less of a problem with Scotland’s generally soft water, but mould still takes hold in damp sealant and grout.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Parkhouse
Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. 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 includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.
Schools such as St. Roch's Secondary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Rented homes near Ashfield 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.

Leave it or put it right?
Fresh sealant smartens a bathroom or kitchen with very little disruption, which helps when a home is being let or put on the market. A smeared, uneven DIY bead does the opposite, and it’s harder to put right later. 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.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.
Why book with us
- Fully insured
- 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- We never seal over old sealant
See our cost guide or what customers say.
DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
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.
What we cannot put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.
What we seal
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, following the cure time we give you. After that, a quick wipe after showering helps keep it clean.
Watch for the early signs: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. Any of these means the joint needs attention.
How the job changes by surface
Shower trays & enclosures
The vertical joint where a screen profile meets the wall is a common leak point. It’s resealed along with the tray joints, sealing the side the enclosure’s instructions call for.
Baths
Most bath leaks begin along the long edge, particularly where there’s a shower over the bath. It gets one smooth bead of anti-fungal silicone, tooled so water cannot sit on it.
What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Outdoor work around Parkhouse depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Let us know about parking restrictions
