Commercial sealant in Edinburgh: how it works
In showers and washrooms we use anti-fungal sanitary silicone, with a food-safe sealant by kitchen sinks where needed. Products include Arbo and Everbuild sealants, chosen to suit each joint. We’re often asked to deal with worktop sealant that has shrunk and stained and too many rooms to reseal without closing the building, across rental portfolios, office washrooms & kitchens and student & care accommodation.
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for a single washroom, longer for a whole building.
- We start by looking at the rooms and agreeing what’s needed.
- We agree when we’ll work, with early or out-of-hours slots where they can be arranged.
- Each area is protected and stripped of old sealant.
- Once dry, every joint is resealed and tooled.
- We let your team know the cure time for every area.
How we quote
No two jobs are quite the same, 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 will explain the quote if you ask.
Why choose Mr Mastic
- Fully insured
- Old sealant always removed completely
- One-year guarantee on every job
- You choose the colour before work begins

Commercial sealant across Edinburgh: local notes
In Edinburgh, commercial sealant work takes in washrooms, kitchens, shared areas and service openings, in Leith, Bonnington and Greenside and well beyond. Work can be planned room by room, and out of hours where needed.
The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, but outside joints take plenty of weather everywhere. Sealants for jobs in Edinburgh are chosen with that in mind. In the coastal parts of Edinburgh, the sea-facing side of a building takes the most weather, and that’s where sealant usually gives up first. The right product and careful preparation help it last.
Edinburgh: For landlords with property near Haymarket station, sealant work can be quoted for a single flat or a whole portfolio. Community buildings like St Cuthbert's Church are part of the picture too: halls and community kitchens see heavy use, and their sealant shows it.
What affects the quote in Edinburgh
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Whether the work is at height
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- The address or postcode of the job
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details.
Signs you need commercial sealant
Heavy use means more movement: different weights, constant use and daily cleaning. If a tray flexes, the sealant around it splits.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Tired sealant ahead of a health and safety audit
- Failed joints in office kitchens and tea points
- Whole floors of tired en suites
- Leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas
Why act early?
A quick bead over the old sealant might get a room back in use today, but silicone doesn’t bond to silicone, so it lifts. Doing it properly once is less disruptive than doing it badly twice.
Comparing quotes
- Which colour the sealant will be
- How hidden problems are handled
- Are they insured?
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Edinburgh
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Questions from Edinburgh
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Can you work around guests in a hotel?
Usually, yes. We agree the room order and times with your managers, and you will know when each room can be used.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll explain our choice.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
How do I get a quote for commercial sealant in Edinburgh?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before we start.
How long does commercial sealant take?
Typically it takes a few hours per room, so whole buildings are phased. Bigger jobs take longer, and we will tell you how long to expect.
