Different surfaces, different methods
Wet rooms
A wet room floor and its walls can move independently, so the internal corners need silicone rather than grout. Cracked grout in a corner can be cut out and replaced with silicone.
Shower trays & enclosures
If a tray moves underfoot, new silicone won’t last. Movement is checked before anything is resealed, and tell you if it needs re-bedding first.
Bathroom resealing in Port Dundas
Resealing is a small job that makes a big difference. Black, patchy sealant makes clean tiles look tired, and a clean white or clear joint fixes it quickly. Just as important, it closes the gaps water would otherwise get through. If you’re dealing with two layers of silicone, both failing and water getting behind the bath panel, we can put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and sinks & splashbacks alike.
Tenement flats are common in all four of Scotland’s big cities, alongside houses and newer flats. In a tenement, most bathrooms sit above someone else’s ceiling, so failed sealant around a bath or shower can soon become a neighbour’s problem.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

What else we do in Port Dundas
Bathroom resealing in Port Dundas: local notes
In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in. Sandstone tenements are a big part of Glasgow’s housing, so many bathrooms sit right above a neighbour’s ceiling.
Managing a site like St Aloysius' College? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Questions from Port Dundas
I’m in a tenement in Port Dundas. Could worn sealant affect the flat downstairs?
Yes, and the first sign is often a mark on the ceiling below. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a fresh bead puts a stop to it.
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Port Dundas?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Will you leave a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Is there any odour?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Quotes for bathroom resealing in Port Dundas
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The type of sealant required
- Whether the work is at height
- Any mould that needs treating
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The address or postcode of the job
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- What’s wrong with the joints now
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job.
What we can’t put right
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before any work starts. Sealant won’t put right:
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Common problems we fix in Port Dundas
Silicone doesn’t last for ever. Every shower, every splash and every wipe with a cleaner slowly wear it down, and how long it lasts comes down to use, cleaning and ventilation.
The problems people normally mention when they call include:
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
Rented homes near Glasgow Queen Street station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

How it works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. It generally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. Many homes in Scotland’s cities are tenement flats, reached through a shared close and up a common stair. For a job in Port Dundas, tell us the floor, how the door entry system works and where we can park nearby.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Preparing for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any tricky access
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Related advice
Leave it or put it right?
The difference in a professional reseal is mostly what you don’t see: removing all the old sealant, degreasing the joint, treating mould and drying it properly. Without that preparation, the new bead won’t last. In a Scottish city tenement, failed sealant affects more than one flat: a leak can come through the ceiling below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-rated joints matter to every flat.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
