- Black, stained silicone in guest bathrooms
- Too many rooms to reseal without closing the building
- Sealant failing again soon after quick repairs
Should I try it myself first?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Commercial sealant in Bowhill
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 are often asked to deal with leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas and worktop sealant that has shrunk and stained, on welfare facilities, hotel bathrooms and student & care accommodation.
For holiday lets, guest houses and community buildings in or near Bowhill, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

What else we do in Bowhill
Signs you need commercial sealant in Bowhill
Heavy use means more movement: people of all sizes, daily cleaning and constant loading all work at the joint. A tray that is not fully supported soon tears its seal.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Washroom sealant that looks dirty however often it’s cleaned
- Tired sealant in let properties
- Tired sealant ahead of a health and safety audit
- Failed floor-level joints in accessible wet rooms
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Fothad's Parish Church, its kitchen and washroom sealant needs looking after like anywhere else.
What to look for in a quote
- What preparation is included
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
What we can’t put right
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- A shower tray, bath or basin that is cracked or broken
- Fire risk assessments or certification
- Extraction that isn’t working, which needs an electrician or ventilation contractor
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Welfare facilities
- Office washrooms & kitchens
- Student & care accommodation
- Rental portfolios
- Hotel bathrooms
- Retail & leisure sites
How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours per room, so whole buildings are phased and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere like Bowhill may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- We walk the site with you and agree the rooms, the order and the hours.
- Each area is protected and the old sealant cut out completely.
- The joints are degreased, treated and left to dry.
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes into wet areas, with suitable sealants elsewhere.
- Rooms are checked and returned with a cure time so staff know when to use them.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Different surfaces, different methods
Student & care accommodation
Halls and care homes often have many near-identical bathrooms. We agree a programme and work through them steadily.
Hotel bathrooms
Guest bathrooms are resealed room by room or in batches, so most rooms stay available. Each room is handed back with its cure time for housekeeping.
What affects the cost of commercial sealant
We do not publish a price list. What we look at:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The product the joint needs
- Whether the work is at height
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.
What to tell us for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- How we’d reach the joints
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Roughly how big the job is
- A few photos by email, if you can
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that’s easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved.

Near you in Bowhill

Why deal with it now?
Refitting a washroom is a big, disruptive project. If the fittings are in good order, new sealant is often all it needs. We’ll tell you if we find anything that needs another trade. 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.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
