What affects the cost of commercial sealant

We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:

  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • How many areas need sealing
  • Access and height
  • When we can work, for business premises

Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

What we need to know

To help us quote quickly, please include:

  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Whether it’s a home or a business

We don’t publish a price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Commercial sealant in Comiston

Wet areas get anti-fungal sanitary silicone, and kitchens get a food-safe product where it’s needed. We use sealants from Arbo and Everbuild, applied by ARBOMaster approved applicators. We’re often asked to deal with sealant failing again soon after quick repairs and worktop sealant that has shrunk and stained, on rental portfolios, welfare facilities and hotel bathrooms.

Scotland has its own building regulations, with their own technical handbooks. In Comiston, as anywhere, fire-rated sealant goes in to the product’s tested details and washroom sealant is chosen to cope with heavy use.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Comiston and across Edinburgh. We can quote a run of properties together.

What happens if it’s left?

Guests and staff judge a building by its bathrooms. Mouldy silicone looks unhygienic, however hard housekeeping work, and cleaning rarely puts it right. Replacing it does. In a Scottish city tenement, failed sealant affects more than one flat: water can reach the flat below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-stopping affect the whole stair.

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

Why us?

  • White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
  • Neat joints and a tidy finish
  • An ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas

See what affects the cost and what customers say.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Aftercare is simple:

  • Get split or lifting joints looked at early
  • Use mild cleaners on sealant, not bleach or abrasives
  • Include the silicone on your room checklists
  • Schedule work around occupancy

Keep the extraction running and maintained. In internal bathrooms, a weak or broken fan lets moisture linger, and that is what keeps mould away.

Planned resealing is easier to manage than emergency repairs. We can fit the work around bookings, shifts and opening hours, rather than closed at short notice.

Common problems we fix in Comiston

Quick fixes come back quickly. New silicone over old, joints that weren’t dried, or an unsuitable product all lead to the same thing: another reseal before long.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Large numbers of bathrooms needing the same work
  • Failed joints in office kitchens and tea points
  • Failed floor-level joints in accessible wet rooms
  • Tired sealant in let properties

Managing a site like Firrhill High School? Then washroom and kitchen sealant can be programmed around term times or opening hours.

What your quote should include

  • What product goes in the joint
  • What insurance they hold
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • What happens if the job turns out different

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. It usually takes a few hours per room, so whole buildings are phased. Many homes in Scotland’s cities are tenement flats, reached through a shared close and up a common stair. In Comiston, it helps to know the floor, the door entry arrangements and the nearest parking.

  1. We agree a programme with you: which rooms, in what order, at what times.
  2. Tell us what paperwork your site needs, and we confirm what we can supply before any work starts.
  3. Old sealant is cut out room by room and joints cleaned and treated.
  4. We reseal with the right product for each joint.
  5. Each finished area is checked with you and given a cure time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Should I try DIY first?

Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.

Can you reseal hotel rooms while we stay open?

Yes. We agree the room order and times with your managers, and each room is handed back with a cure time.

Does commercial work come with a guarantee?

Yes. We give a 12-month guarantee on every job and are fully insured.

Do the sealants smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
