Commercial sealant in Canongate, done properly
Office kitchens, staff washrooms and welfare facilities need to be usable every working day. We can plan the work for early mornings or out of hours so the working day is disturbed as little as possible. You’re told when each area can be used again. We are often asked to deal with split sealant around staff kitchen worktops and sinks and leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas, across hotel bathrooms, rental portfolios and retail & leisure sites.
In a Scottish city, commercial sealant work covers offices, hotels, student accommodation, care homes and factored tenement blocks. In Canongate, that can mean resealing washrooms room by room or fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables in common areas.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Your questions about commercial sealant in Canongate
Is Canongate in your area for commercial sealant?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Canongate is part of that. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Do you work in hotels near Canongate?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Can you match the sealant colour?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The product needed can limit the range.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What does commercial sealant cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Different surfaces, different methods
Rental portfolios
An empty property is easy to reseal, so the next tenant moves in to clean, sound joints.
Hotel bathrooms
We can plan around check-out and check-in times, with the order agreed with your team.
When to call us in Canongate
Wet rooms and accessible showers are designed for the whole floor to get wet, so floor-to-wall joints take standing water. Any split there can let water through quickly.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Rental bathrooms that need resealing between tenants
- Shower leaks reaching the floor below
- Washroom sealant that looks dirty however often it’s cleaned
- Split sealant around staff kitchen worktops and sinks
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Kirk of the Canongate, its kitchen and washroom sealant needs looking after like anywhere else.

Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage several properties in or around Canongate, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and photos by email help.
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

Why deal with it now?
Patching the worst rooms as complaints come in is hard to manage. A planned programme works through every room, keeping disruption down and costs clear. Scottish rain finds any gap around a frame or wall joint, and in Canongate, damp can spread through stone and plaster before anyone sees it.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and give you a clear quote before we start.
What you get with us
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
- Colour agreed with you before work begins
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep extractor fans working and serviced
- Put a squeegee in each shower
- Pass on the cure time to whoever cleans the rooms
- Get split or lifting joints looked at early
Strong chemicals and scourers wear silicone out faster. Ask cleaners to use mild products and soft cloths on the sealant, with stronger products kept off the bead.
Mould in shared washrooms gets noticed and talked about. The longer it’s left, the deeper it grows into the silicone, so the fix is replacement.
How the visit works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours per room, so whole buildings are phased. Parking in city streets around Canongate can be tight or controlled, so it helps to know about permits or nearby bays. For flats, mention the door entry system and any shared-stair arrangements.
- We walk the site with you and agree the rooms, the order and the hours.
- Every area is sheeted and the old silicone stripped out.
- Joints are cleaned, treated for mould and dried.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
