What happens if it’s left?
Before an inspection, audit or busy season, sealant is easy to overlook. Booking it in good time leaves room for the cure time before the visit, without a last-minute rush. 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.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

- Washroom sealant that looks dirty however often it’s cleaned
- Rental bathrooms that need resealing between tenants
- Sealant failing again soon after quick repairs

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Log resealing so you know what’s due
- Keep extractor fans working and serviced
- Ask cleaners to go gently on the silicone
- Pass on the cure time to whoever cleans the rooms
Ask staff to report splits or lifting sealant early. A small gap caught quickly is a short fix, and if anything looks wrong, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Watch for the warning signs: mould, splits, peeling corners or water marks downstairs. When you see them, it’s time to plan a reseal.
How it works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for a single washroom, longer for a whole building. Around Bowden, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.
- We start with a site walk to agree the rooms and the timing.
- Every area is sheeted and the old silicone stripped out.
- The joints are degreased, treated and left to dry.
- New sealant suited to each area is applied and tooled.
- Rooms are checked and returned with a cure time so staff know when to use them.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
How to get a quote
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll take it from there.

What affects the quote in Bowden
There’s no set price list. What we look at:
- The number and length of the joints
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The product the joint needs
- Whether the work is at height
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The type of property
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we will talk you through the work and give you a clear price.
