About our bathroom resealing in Portsoy
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. We work on sinks & splashbacks, baths and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are failed sealant on the screen profile and lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt.
Being further from a city doesn’t change the work: everything old is cut out, the joints are cleaned and dried, and new sealant or grout goes in. The journey and access are simply planned in advance.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

What happens on the day
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen, depending on the size of the job. Around Portsoy, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, usually after around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in

Bathroom resealing in Portsoy: local notes
Portsoy is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that does not dry out.
Around Portsoy, as everywhere, bathroom resealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.

What sealant work cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
- A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint

Portsoy: your questions answered
Is Portsoy in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Portsoy is part of that. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is there a guarantee on bathroom resealing in Portsoy?
All our work, in Portsoy and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
A single bath or shower takes about a couple of hours, old sealant removal included. A whole bathroom plus the kitchen may take most of the day.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How we quote for bathroom resealing
We don’t publish a price list. What we look at:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How much there is to do
- The product the joint needs
- How many areas need sealing
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
What we need to know
You don’t need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand.
What we’re called out for in Portsoy
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.
People usually contact us when they notice one of these:
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
If you live in an older home near St John's Episcopal Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
Before booking anyone
- How long the guarantee is
- What preparation is included
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
How the job changes by surface
Basins & vanity units
A vanity top has a joint along the wall and sometimes at the sides. Water that gets behind can damage the unit, so a neat, continuous bead matters.
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.

Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. Left alone, it soaks into the floor, the wall behind the tiles or the ceiling below. Resealing early stops it.
