About our commercial sealant in Dores

Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Leaking pipework, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A shower tray, bath or basin that is cracked or broken
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.

Common problems we fix in Dores
Commercial bathrooms get far more use than domestic ones, and daily cleaning with strong chemicals wears sealant down. So the silicone ages faster than it would at home.
People generally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Tired sealant ahead of a health and safety audit
- Silicone laid over old silicone by a previous contractor
- Leaks from showers into rooms or ceilings below
- Too many rooms to reseal without closing the building
Community buildings like Dores Parish Church are part of the picture too: any kitchen and washrooms need the same sealant care as any other building.

Surface by surface
Student & care accommodation
Many accommodation blocks have rows of similar en suites. A room-by-room programme keeps the job efficient.
Retail & leisure sites
Changing areas and showers at leisure sites are wet all day, so anti-fungal sanitary silicone is the product we use.
Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Tell cleaning staff when each room can be used
- Plan resealing around quiet periods
- Put a squeegee in each shower
- Get split or lifting joints looked at early
Extract fans need to work. In internal bathrooms, a weak or broken fan lets moisture linger, and mould comes back faster without it.
It’s easier to plan a programme than to react to failures. We can fit the work around bookings, shifts and opening hours, rather than closed at short notice.
How the visit works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. It usually takes a few hours per area, with larger sites planned over several visits. Outside jobs in Dores need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First we visit and agree the scope, the sequence and the working hours.
- Every area is sheeted and the old silicone stripped out.
- The joints are degreased, treated and left to dry.
- New sealant suited to each area is applied and tooled.
- We check every room and give its cure time for housekeeping.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

FAQs for Dores
Can you do commercial sealant in Dores?
Yes, Dores is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.
Is Dores within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we’re using.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Dores, along with the rest of our area.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
