Our applicators work in Pitcalnie on bath, shower, basin, wet room, worktop and sink resealing. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and every job guaranteed for a year.

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Pitcalnie
A fresh bead of silicone changes how a bathroom looks more than most people expect. Mouldy silicone makes even a new bathroom look neglected, and a neat new joint puts that right in a short visit. It also seals the gaps that let water behind the bath. If you’re dealing with cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone and splits where the tray meets the wall, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Bathrooms in smaller places like Pitcalnie work just as hard as those in the cities. 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.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
When to call us in Pitcalnie
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.
People normally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
Around Pitcalnie, as everywhere, bathroom resealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Questions to ask before booking
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- What insurance they hold
- The length of the guarantee
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
Why deal with it now?
Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. Cutting it out and resealing with anti-fungal silicone is the fix that lasts. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Why us?
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- We never seal over old sealant
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- Colour agreed with you before work begins

What the job involves on each surface
Baths
Acrylic baths give a little under load, and even steel and cast iron baths settle slightly when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Laminate worktops swell if water gets into the core. A continuous bead along the back keeps water out, as long as the worktop itself is firmly fixed.
What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The number and length of the joints
- The product the joint needs
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, please include:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Roughly how big the job is
There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Common questions in Pitcalnie
Is Pitcalnie within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Fearn station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?
Yes. Kitchen joints get extra degreasing before the new bead goes on, then a colour-matched bead is laid.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. Allow a couple of hours for a typical bath or shower.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
Will it make a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
How long before the new sealant can get wet?
Silicone is touch-dry quite quickly, but it takes longer to cure. Keep water off it for around 24 hours, or as long as we advise for that product.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Pitcalnie
Pitcalnie 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. Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black.
For landlords with property near Fearn station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
Clean the silicone with care: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
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 visit works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The visit itself usually takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower, depending on the amount of work. Outdoor work around Pitcalnie depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, normally after around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any tricky access
