Questions from Skirling
Is there a guarantee on bathroom resealing in Skirling?
All our work, in Skirling and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Will you come out to Skirling?
Yes, Skirling is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
We can use white, clear or a colour to suit. On a worktop we colour-match where the joint shows.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes. We reseal worktop upstands, sinks and splashbacks, in a kitchen-suitable sealant, matched to the worktop where it’s on show.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. As well as homeowners, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels in Skirling.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
Silicone is touch-dry quite quickly, but it takes longer to cure. Keep water off it for around 24 hours, or follow the cure time we give you.

Why deal with it now?
You do not need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. Replacing the joint is normally all it takes, provided the bath, tray and tiles are in good order. If something else is wrong, we will tell you. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Common problems we fix in Skirling
No sealant lasts indefinitely. 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.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Water getting behind the bath panel
For jobs in and around Skirling, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

Other services in Skirling
Skirling homes and their sealant
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. Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that does not dry out.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Move toiletries away from the joint
Have a look at the joints every few months. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, so if something does not look right, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Small signs come before a leak: 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.
The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself normally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included, depending on the size of the job. Around Skirling, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.
- 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.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Move anything stored near the joints

- The number and length of the joints
- The number of rooms or windows

What sealant work can’t fix
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before work begins. It won’t solve:
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
- 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.
Surfaces we seal
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Shower trays & enclosures
Different surfaces, different methods
Sinks & splashbacks
Around the sink, we use a product suited to kitchens, including a food-safe sealant where that’s needed. The joint is laid neatly so it’s easy to wipe.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Worktop joints get wet and wiped every day. We seal them in a colour that suits the worktop.
