- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
How it works
On the day, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work starts. Most jobs take a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- We cover the area around the joints we are working on.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
How to prepare
- Mention any tricky access
- Clear the area around the work
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

How we handle bathroom resealing in Rubha Ban
Before a bath is sealed, it’s filled with water. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the bead isn’t stretched the first time someone gets in. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. We work on baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about leaks into the floor or ceiling below and new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting.
Bathrooms in smaller places like Rubha Ban 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.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

What else we do in Rubha Ban
When to call us in Rubha Ban
Silicone doesn’t last for ever. Daily water, heat and cleaning products take their toll over the years, and how long it lasts comes down to use, cleaning and ventilation.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
In the older streets around St Michael's Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
What to look for in a quote
- When the joint can take water or movement
- How hidden problems are handled
- Which colour the sealant will be

Rubha Ban homes and their sealant
Rubha Ban 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. Work on the islands has to be planned around ferry crossings and the weather, so the more notice, the better.
Around Rubha Ban, as everywhere, bathroom resealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Rubha Ban is in Na h-Eileanan Siar. Homes, rented property, offices and hotels in Rubha Ban can book us for bathroom resealing, old or new, large or small. Every job comes with our one-year guarantee. Rubha Ban is one of 87 towns and villages in Na h-Eileanan Siar we cover.

Why act early in Rubha Ban
Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but where mould is inside the silicone it normally comes back. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. Around Rubha Ban, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Your questions about bathroom resealing in Rubha Ban
Is Rubha Ban in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Rubha Ban is part of that. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
What guarantee comes with bathroom resealing in Rubha Ban?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so we cut it out, treat the joint and reseal with anti-fungal silicone.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it peels away and hides mould and water. We always take the old sealant out completely.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we are fully insured too.
Quotes for bathroom resealing in Rubha Ban
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- Any mould that needs treating
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins.
Helping us quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- If someone has resealed it before
- The type of property
- Any access issues, like height or stairs

What sealant work cannot fix
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. It won’t solve:
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
- A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
If you’re not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer.
