Landlords, agents and businesses in Whauphill
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, 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. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
How we quote for bathroom resealing
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number and length of the joints
- The number of rooms or windows
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- A few photos by email, if you can
We do not publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
The process
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Outside jobs in Whauphill need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, normally after around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
When it is not the sealant
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
If you are not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
Common problems we fix in Whauphill
Not every tube in the shop is meant for a shower. Acrylic caulk and general-purpose sealants are not designed for a joint that is wet every day, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. Wet areas call for a sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
Whether the job is in Whauphill itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.
What to look for in a quote

Why act early in Whauphill
Fresh sealant smartens a bathroom or kitchen with very little disruption, which helps when a home is being let or put on the market. Lumpy sealant with smears on the tiles has the opposite effect, and it’s harder to put right later. In an older home around Whauphill, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.
Why book with us
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- We never seal over old sealant

Bathroom resealing around Whauphill
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. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black.
In and around Whauphill, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Common questions in Whauphill
Do you cover Whauphill for bathroom resealing?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Whauphill is part of that. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
What guarantee comes with bathroom resealing in Whauphill?
All our work, in Whauphill and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?
Yes. We reseal worktop upstands, sinks and splashbacks, with a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old sealant comes out first.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?
Yes, we can. We strip the bead, treat the joint and lay new anti-fungal silicone.

We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
