Commercial sealant near Craigleith

DIY versus a professional finish

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

About our commercial sealant in Craigleith

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. You are told when each area can be used again. We work on retail & leisure sites, student & care accommodation and office washrooms & kitchens, and the jobs we see most are split sealant where wet room floors meet walls and washroom sealant that looks dirty however often it’s cleaned.

In a Scottish city, commercial sealant work covers offices, hotels, student accommodation, care homes and factored tenement blocks. For a building in Craigleith, the job might be washroom resealing or fire-rated sealant around service openings.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

How it works

Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours per area, with larger sites planned over several visits, and the area is left clean. In a Scottish city, a lot of jobs are in tenement flats, up a common stair from a shared close. For a job in Craigleith, tell us the floor, how the door entry system works and where we can park nearby.

  1. We start by looking at the rooms and agreeing what’s needed.
  2. We agree when we will work, with early or out-of-hours slots where they 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.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:

  • Damaged sanitaryware that needs replacing
  • Water damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler or builder

Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.

Landlords and letting agents in Craigleith can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

Surface by surface

Welfare facilities

Staff welfare areas are needed every shift. We can plan the work in sections.

Retail & leisure sites

Gym and leisure changing rooms take heavy use and plenty of water, so anti-fungal sanitary silicone is the product we use.

Common problems we fix in Craigleith

Internal washrooms and en suites without a window rely entirely on extraction, so if the fan is weak, steam lingers and the sealant stays damp. That’s when black mould sets into the bead.

The problems people usually mention when they call are:

  • Mouldy washroom sealant that staff and guests notice
  • Large numbers of bathrooms needing the same work
  • Failed floor-level joints in accessible wet rooms
  • Sealant failing again soon after quick repairs

For buildings such as Dean Parish Church, its kitchen and washroom sealant needs looking after like anywhere else.

Before booking anyone

  • How much experience the applicator has
  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why
