About our bathroom resealing in Taobh Lochaidh
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Trays, enclosures, screen profiles and wet room floors all need a flexible, waterproof seal. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. We work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are leaking joints on a shower screen and water getting behind the kitchen upstand.
Being further from a city doesn’t change the work: everything old is cut out, the joints are cleaned and dried, and new sealant or grout goes in. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Do you need bathroom resealing in Taobh Lochaidh?
Sealant laid on a damp, dusty or greasy joint never bonds properly. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, so a rushed job can start to lift early.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
If you look after a building such as Lochaber High School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- What the cure time is
The process
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Around Taobh Lochaidh, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.
- We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention any tricky access
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Bathroom resealing around Taobh Lochaidh
Taobh Lochaidh is within about 2 miles of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. 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.

Common questions in Taobh Lochaidh
Is Taobh Lochaidh within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you work for landlords with property near Banavie station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few photos.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for 12 months. Looking after the joint as we suggest helps it last.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then we reseal in a colour to suit.

Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.
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.
