We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can go on one quote, and we’re fully insured for the work.

What happens on the day

We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a few hours for a single washroom, longer for a whole building. Parking in city streets around Buccleuch can be tight or controlled, so it helps to know about permits or nearby bays. If you are in a flat, let us know how we get in at the street door.

  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. Areas are protected and the failed sealant removed.
  4. Once dry, every joint is resealed and tooled.
  5. We let your team know the cure time for every area.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

How do I get a quote for commercial sealant in Buccleuch?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.

Will you leave a mess?

Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.

How long does commercial sealant take?

Most jobs take as long as the scope needs, from one welfare room to a full building, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

What should I tell you?

Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Log resealing so you know what’s due
  • Tell cleaning staff when each room can be used
  • Ask cleaners to go gently on the silicone
  • Schedule work around occupancy

Extract fans need to work. In internal bathrooms, a weak or broken fan lets moisture linger, and that is what keeps mould away.

Mould in shared washrooms gets noticed and talked about. Left long enough, it spreads through the bead, so the fix is replacement.

Schools such as Sciennes Primary School are buildings too, and sealant in washrooms, kitchens and changing areas can be renewed around term times or opening hours. Rented homes near Edinburgh Waverley station change hands often, and we can quote for one property or a whole portfolio of rentals.

Take a look at what affects the cost and what customers say.

What affects the cost of commercial sealant

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:

  • Access and height
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • The number and length of the joints
  • Working hours on commercial sites

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 play a part.

Helping us quote

To make quoting easier, let us know:

  • If someone has resealed it before
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • The type of property

We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details and send photos if you have them.

When it is not the sealant

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Faulty shower valves and leaking traps
  • A shower tray, bath or basin that is cracked or broken
  • Fire risk assessments or certification

If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think.
