- Mouldy washroom sealant that staff and guests notice
Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed 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 fails, we can still redo it.
How we handle commercial sealant in Cramond
In showers and washrooms we use anti-fungal sanitary silicone, with a food-safe sealant by kitchen sinks where needed. Products include Arbo and Everbuild sealants, chosen to suit each joint. If you have whole floors of tired en suites and repeated reseals that don’t last, we can help, on student & care accommodation, welfare facilities and hotel bathrooms alike.
Commercial work around smaller Scottish places tends to mean hotels, guest houses, schools and halls rather than offices. Each needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints kept in good order.
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.

What happens on the day
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours per area, with larger sites planned over several visits in most cases. Outdoor work around Cramond depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors is not affected.
- We walk the site with you and agree the rooms, the order and the hours.
- Room by room, we protect the area and remove all the old sealant.
- The joints are degreased, treated and left to dry.
- We lay the right sealant for each area, with anti-fungal silicone in wet rooms.
- We check every room and give its cure time for housekeeping.
How to prepare
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the work

What else we do in Cramond
What affects the cost of commercial sealant
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The size of the job
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The rough size of the job
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Where the property is
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Keep strong chemicals and scourers off the joints
- Check the joints during routine room inspections
- Give housekeeping the cure time for every room
- Encourage users to squeegee shower walls
Extract fans need to work. Where a room has no window, the fan is what dries it out, and that’s what keeps mould away.
Watch for the warning signs: mould, splits, peeling corners or water marks downstairs. When you see them, it’s time to plan a reseal.
