Commercial sealant for homes and businesses in Craigentinny
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 to keep disruption down. Each area is handed back with its cure time. We work on welfare facilities, rental portfolios and student & care accommodation, and the jobs we see most are leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas and shower leaks reaching the floor below.
In a Scottish city, commercial sealant work covers offices, hotels, student accommodation, care homes and factored tenement blocks. For a building in Craigentinny, the job might be washroom resealing or fire-rated sealant around service openings.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Craigentinny questions
Do you take on hotel work around Craigentinny?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Is Craigentinny in your area for commercial sealant?
Yes, Craigentinny is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
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.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Craigentinny and the rest of Edinburgh.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We will explain which colours are available.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few photos.
Do you need commercial sealant in Craigentinny?
A hotel shower or office washroom is used many times a day, and they’re cleaned with strong products every day. That is why sealant fails sooner.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Rental bathrooms that need resealing between tenants
- Washrooms that need sorting before an inspection
- Washroom sealant that looks dirty however often it’s cleaned
- Water marks on ceilings under bathrooms
If you let a flat or house near Brunstane station, sealant work can be quoted for a single flat or a whole portfolio.
Questions to ask before booking
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- Are they insured?
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- How long to leave it before use
Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
How it works
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours for a single washroom, longer for a whole building. Parking in city streets around Craigentinny can be tight or controlled, so it helps to know about permits or nearby bays. If you’re in a flat, let us know how we get in at the street door.
- We agree a programme with you: which rooms, in what order, at what times.
- We go through your site’s paperwork needs, such as RAMS, before work begins.
- In each room, the old bead comes out and the joint is cleaned and treated.
- We reseal with the right product for each joint.
- Rooms are handed back in order, each with its cure time.
How to prepare
- Mention any tricky access
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

What commercial sealant looks like in Craigentinny
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Craigentinny, heavy use in the busy months is hard on washroom and kitchen sealant, and any building work there should leave fire-rated joints made good. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, so landlords with several properties often need sealant work across them all.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Restalrig Parish Church, halls and community kitchens see heavy use, and their sealant shows it. If you look after a building such as Portobello High School, washroom and kitchen sealant can be programmed around term times or opening hours.
