Aftercare tips

A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:

  • Check the joints during routine room inspections
  • Keep extractor fans working and serviced
  • Act on lifting sealant before it leaks
  • Keep strong chemicals and scourers off the joints

Extract fans need to work. In internal bathrooms, a weak or broken fan lets moisture linger, and mould comes back faster without it.

Black sealant in a staff washroom or guest bathroom draws complaints. The longer it’s left, the deeper it grows into the silicone, so the fix is replacement.

Commercial sealant around Balfour

In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, and keeping sealant sound across a portfolio is part of that.

Welfare facilities

Welfare facilities, shower rooms and changing areas need to stay usable. We can plan the work in sections so part of the facilities stays in use.

Hotel bathrooms

In a hotel, every bathroom is used and cleaned daily, so joints are finished smooth and sealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

What we are called out for in Balfour

Internal washrooms and en suites without a window rely entirely on extraction, and where extraction is poor, damp hangs around. That is when black mould sets into the bead.

Common reasons people contact us are:

  • Silicone laid over old silicone by a previous contractor
  • Too many rooms to reseal without closing the building
  • Shower leaks reaching the floor below
  • Failed joints in office kitchens and tea points

If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Comgall's Church, halls and community kitchens see heavy use, and their sealant shows it.

The process

There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes as long as the scope needs, from one welfare room to a full building, including the tidy-up. Outside jobs in Balfour 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 is not affected.

  1. We start by looking at the rooms and agreeing what’s needed.
  2. Working hours are agreed, including early starts or out-of-hours work where it can be arranged.
  3. Each area is protected and stripped of old sealant.
  4. Joints are dried, then resealed and tooled neatly.
  5. Housekeeping or site staff are told when each area can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice

Questions from Balfour

Can you do commercial sealant in Balfour?

Yes, Balfour is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.

Is there a guarantee on commercial sealant in Balfour?

Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Can I do it myself?

Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.

How long do rooms need to be out of use?

Around 24 hours is typical for sanitary silicone. Housekeeping get the cure time for each room.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

What should I tell you?

A short description and the location. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.

Can new sealant go over the old?

No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first.

Can you reseal bathrooms across several rental properties?

Yes. Between tenancies is a good time to reseal bathrooms and kitchens and several properties can be quoted together.

What affects the quote in Balfour

Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:

  • Access and height
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What to tell us for a quote

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • How we’d reach the joints
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

For commercial sealant in Balfour, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and we will agree the price before any work begins.

Landlord and commercial work in Balfour

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

If you manage several properties in or around Balfour, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each.

Why deal with it now?

A quick bead over the old sealant might get a room back in use today, but it will not bond, and it lifts again soon. Doing it properly once is less disruptive than doing it badly twice. In a place like Balfour, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.

Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
