If you have water escaping at the shower enclosure and damp behind the bath or under the tray, we can help, on kitchen worktops & upstands, sinks & splashbacks and basins & vanity units alike.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
Keep water off the new bead until it has cured, which is normally around 24 hours. After that, a quick wipe after showering helps keep it clean.
Worktop joints fail quietly. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, and the board underneath can swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.
What we do, step by step
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The work normally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere like Skinflats may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

- Where the job is, and your postcode
- What’s wrong with the joints now

Why act early in Skinflats
Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, turning a small job into a building repair. In a place like Skinflats, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Surface by surface
Baths
Acrylic baths flex the most, while steel and cast iron baths move less but still settle when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.
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.
Common questions in Skinflats
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Falkirk Grahamston station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is Skinflats in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Skinflats is part of that. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No. Fresh silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old sealant comes out first.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes. Our 12-month guarantee covers every job, and we are ARBOMaster approved applicators.
Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?
Yes, often alongside a bathroom. Where it’s needed by the sink, we use a food-safe sealant.
Bathroom resealing in Skinflats: local notes
Skinflats is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, 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 doesn’t dry out.
Managing a site like Graeme High School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Falkirk Grahamston station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
