Common problems we fix in Turfhill

Sealing over old silicone is one of the commonest mistakes we find. Fresh silicone cannot grip the old bead underneath, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
  • Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
  • Leaking joints on a shower screen
  • Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone

In the older streets around New Deer Parish Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Turfhill

Across Turfhill, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Each one is stripped, cleaned and dried before new silicone goes in. Common call-outs are for a reseal done over the top of the old bead and black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off, across sinks & splashbacks, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & upstands.

Bathrooms in smaller places like Turfhill 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.

How to look after the new joints

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Dry worktop joints after washing up
  • Never pick at the silicone with a blade
  • Squeegee the walls and tray after use
  • Move toiletries away from the joint

Keep bottles and razors off the sealant line, as they hold water against it. A quick squeegee after showering keeps water from sitting on the joint.

A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, where it can make the board swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.

Turfhill homes and their sealant

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. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in.

In and around Turfhill, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can be quoted together, and we are fully insured for the work.

What affects the quote in Turfhill

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • Whether the work is at height
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The size of the job

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Helping us quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • Photos by email, if that is easy

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.

How it works

All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Around Turfhill, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.

  1. First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
  2. The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
  3. Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
  4. When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
  5. The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Move anything stored near the joints

How to get a quote

Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where and its rough size. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we will take it from there.

When it is not the sealant

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
  • Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint

If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we seal

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

Why it’s worth doing now in Turfhill

Fresh sealant smartens a bathroom or kitchen with very little disruption, which matters if you’re letting a property or selling it. Lumpy sealant with smears on the tiles has the opposite effect. In an older home around Turfhill, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.

There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
