Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use mild cleaners on sealant, not bleach or abrasives
- Leave squeegees in busy showers
- Tell cleaning staff when each room can be used
- Include the silicone on your room checklists
Strong chemicals and scourers wear silicone out faster. Ask cleaners to use mild products and soft cloths on the sealant.
Watch for the warning signs: black spots in the silicone, corners lifting, staining on the ceiling below or a musty smell. Any of these means the joints need attention.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Common problems we fix in Ancrum
Commercial bathrooms get far more use than domestic ones, and daily cleaning with strong chemicals wears sealant down. That’s why sealant fails sooner.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas
- Joints that need doing before an inspection or audit
- Silicone laid over old silicone by a previous contractor
- Tired sealant in let properties
In and around Ancrum, as anywhere, good commercial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Commercial sealant in Ancrum: local notes
In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, and keeping sealant sound across a portfolio is part of that.
Community buildings like Ancrum Old Parish Church are part of the picture too: halls and community kitchens see heavy use, and their sealant shows it.
Ancrum is about 10 miles north-east of Hawick, in the Scottish Borders. Anywhere in TD8, our applicators can take on commercial sealant. Our the Scottish Borders coverage runs to 89 places, and Ancrum is one of them. There’s also a page for Edinburgh, roughly 38 miles from Ancrum.

When it is not the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Assessing what fire stopping a building needs
- Water damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler or builder
- Water coming from plumbing rather than sealant
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think before booking.
What we seal

- Rental portfolios

The process
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours per area, with larger sites planned over several visits. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- We agree a programme with you: which rooms, in what order, at what times.
- We go through your site’s paperwork needs, such as RAMS, before work begins.
- In each room, the old bead comes out and the joint is cleaned and treated.
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes into wet areas, with suitable sealant elsewhere.
- Rooms are handed back in order, each with its cure time.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any tricky access

Related advice
Why act early in Ancrum
First impressions are often made in the washroom. Black sealant makes a clean room look dirty, and cleaning rarely puts it right. Replacing it does. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.
