Bathroom Resealing in Strathpeffer
We cover Strathpeffer for bath, shower, basin, wet room, worktop and sink resealing. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly.
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
What happens on the day
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included in most cases. For a place like Strathpeffer, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
Preparing for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Strathpeffer
A fresh bead of silicone changes how a bathroom looks more than most people expect. Black, patchy sealant makes clean tiles look tired, and a clean white or clear joint fixes it quickly. Just as important, it closes the gaps water would otherwise get through. If you are dealing with smears of silicone across the tiles and water escaping at the shower enclosure, we can help, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & upstands alike.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses. Older buildings can move a little, and that shows first in cracked grout and split sealant.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Strathpeffer as everywhere else we work.

What sealant work can’t fix
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.
What we seal
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Baths
Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
Keep bottles and razors off the sealant line, because they trap water against the silicone. A quick squeegee after showering keeps water from sitting on the joint.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning generally won’t remove it. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.
Signs you need bathroom resealing in Strathpeffer
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
In the older streets around St Anne's Episcopal Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Strathpeffer homes and their sealant
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. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black.

Your questions about bathroom resealing in Strathpeffer
Will you come out to Strathpeffer?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you take on hotel work around Strathpeffer?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No. Fresh silicone can’t stick to the old bead, so it peels away and hides mould and water. We always take the old sealant out completely.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes, we can. The old sealant comes out, the mould is treated, and we reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
For landlords and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
