Bathroom resealing in Strathblane

Bathroom resealing in Strathblane

The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. The old sealant is removed to the last smear, then the joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. If you are dealing with water getting behind the bath panel and new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Bathrooms in smaller places like Strathblane work just as hard as those in the cities. Generally soft Scottish water means less limescale, but steam still lets mould into sealant and grout.

Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Strathblane

In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies. 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 doesn’t dry out.

Rented homes near Milngavie station change hands often, and fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Questions from Strathblane

I let a flat near Milngavie station. Can you help?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. 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 Strathblane in your area for bathroom resealing?

Yes, Strathblane is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Does the resealing come with a guarantee?

Yes. We give a 12-month guarantee on every job, and we’re fully insured.

Do I need to be at home?

For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?

Yes. We reseal worktop upstands, sinks and splashbacks, with a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.

Can I do it myself?

It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.

DIY versus a professional finish

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Landlord and commercial work in Strathblane

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

What sealant work cannot fix

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:

  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
  • Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support

If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.

Where we work in Strathblane

  • Kitchen worktops & upstands
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Sinks & splashbacks
  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths

What we are called out for in Strathblane

Baths and trays move. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, and a tray that isn’t fully bedded can rock. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.

The problems people normally mention when they call are:

  • Failed sealant on the screen profile
  • Splits where the tray meets the wall
  • Smears of silicone across the tiles
  • Mouldy sealant that has gone black

In the older streets around Parish Church and Churchyard, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself generally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen, depending on how much there is to do. For a place like Strathblane, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.

  1. Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
  2. We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
  3. Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
  5. We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

What the job involves on each surface

Basins & vanity units

Basin joints are short and close to eye level: so we keep the line tidy and even, in white, clear or a colour to suit.

Shower trays & enclosures

A tray that rocks will split any sealant. We check for movement before we reseal, and if the tray needs refixing, we will say so.
