Why it’s worth doing now in Barnyards
Refitting a washroom is a big, disruptive project. When the fittings are sound, renewing the sealant brings it back with far less upheaval. If something else is wrong, we will say so. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

How we handle commercial sealant in Barnyards
Wet areas get anti-fungal sanitary silicone, and kitchens get a food-safe product where it’s needed. We use sealants from Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit each joint. If you have washroom sealant that looks dirty however often it’s cleaned and mouldy bathrooms flagged at a tenancy check, we can help, on office washrooms & kitchens, welfare facilities and retail & leisure sites alike.
For holiday lets, guest houses and community buildings in or near Barnyards, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Common questions in Barnyards
Will you come out to Barnyards?
Yes. Barnyards is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Barnyards?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.
How long do rooms need to be out of use?
Plan for around 24 hours, or the cure time we give for that area. A room-by-room programme keeps only a few rooms out at once.
Can you match the sealant colour?
We will suggest a colour to suit the surroundings, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The product needed can limit the range.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
How long will you be here?
Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of rooms, including preparation and clearing up. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Different surfaces, different methods
Hotel bathrooms
We work through hotel rooms in agreed batches, so most rooms stay available. Housekeeping get a cure time for each room.
Welfare facilities
Busy staff showers wear sealant out quickly. We reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, including accessible wet rooms.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

When something else is needed
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A broken extractor fan behind the mould problem
- Cracked trays or baths rather than failed joints
- Certifying fire stopping or building compliance
If you’re not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Welfare facilities
- Retail & leisure sites
- Student & care accommodation
- Office washrooms & kitchens
- Rental portfolios
- Hotel bathrooms
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Log resealing so you know what’s due
- Get split or lifting joints looked at early
- Keep strong chemicals and scourers off the joints
- Pass on the cure time to whoever cleans the rooms
Ask staff to report splits or lifting sealant early. Catching one split early can save a leak later.
It’s easier to plan a programme than to react to failures. Rooms can be scheduled around occupancy and staff, instead of rooms closing without warning.
What we are called out for in Barnyards
A rushed reseal between guests rarely lasts. New silicone over old, joints that weren’t dried, or an unsuitable product all lead to the same thing: another reseal before long.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- Large numbers of bathrooms needing the same work
- Shower leaks reaching the floor below
- Black, stained silicone in guest bathrooms
- Leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas
In and around Barnyards, as anywhere, good commercial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Questions to ask before booking
- How long the guarantee is
- What insurance they hold
- Is VAT in the price?
- What happens if the job turns out different
What happens on the day
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes as long as the scope needs, from one welfare room to a full building. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.
- We start with a site walk to agree the rooms and the timing.
- Each area is protected and the old sealant cut out completely.
- We clean the joints, treat any mould and let them dry.
- New sealant suited to each area is applied and tooled.
- Each room is checked and handed back with its cure time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Clear the area around the work
