What the job involves on each surface
Welfare facilities
Busy staff showers wear sealant out quickly. We reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Rental portfolios
For a portfolio, we can quote several addresses together, with each one done when access suits.
How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep extractor fans working and serviced
- Schedule work around occupancy
- Keep strong chemicals and scourers off the joints
- Keep a record of which rooms were resealed and when
Keep the extraction running and maintained. In internal bathrooms, a weak or broken fan lets moisture linger, and that’s what keeps mould away.
It’s easier to plan a programme than to react to failures. Rooms can be scheduled around occupancy and staff, rather than closed at short notice.
How we quote for commercial sealant
Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Any mould that needs treating
- When we can work, for business premises
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- The rough size of the job
- The address or postcode of the job
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved and give you a clear price.

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.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
What else we do in Burdiehouse
What we can’t put right
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Cracked trays or baths rather than failed joints
- Faulty shower valves and leaking traps
- Assessing what fire stopping a building needs
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Retail & leisure sites
- Hotel bathrooms
- Rental portfolios
- Office washrooms & kitchens
- Welfare facilities
- Student & care accommodation
When to call us in Burdiehouse
In an accessible wet room, water spreads across the floor every use, so floor-to-wall joints take standing water. A failed joint there can soon let water into the floor or walls.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Tired sealant in let properties
- Repeated reseals that don’t last
- Split sealant around staff kitchen worktops and sinks
- Water marks on ceilings under bathrooms
If you look after a building such as Gracemount High School, washroom and kitchen sealant can be programmed around term times or opening hours.
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the guarantee is
- Whether you can choose the colour
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Is VAT in the price?

Can you reseal between tenancies?

Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can you work around guests in a hotel?
Yes. We work through rooms in batches, keeping most rooms available. Each room comes back with its cure time for housekeeping.
How the visit works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. 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. In a Scottish city, a lot of jobs are in tenement flats, up a common stair from a shared close. In Burdiehouse, it helps to know the floor, the door entry arrangements and the nearest parking.
- We start by looking at the rooms and agreeing what’s needed.
- We agree when we’ll work, with early or out-of-hours slots where they can be arranged.
- Each area is protected and stripped of old sealant.
- Joints are dried, then resealed and tooled neatly.
- We let your team know the cure time for every area.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention any tricky access
