How we quote for commercial sealant

Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Access and height
  • Which sealant suits the joint

What it costs depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

What to tell us for a quote

When you call or email, these details help:

  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • The type of property
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Where the property is

Call for a quick quote, or email us if that’s easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work and give you a clear quote.

Why it’s worth doing now in Earlston

Sealant is easy to forget until an audit or inspection is due. Booking it in good time leaves room for the cure time before the visit, without a last-minute rush. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.

Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.

Why Earlston customers choose us

  • Arbo and Everbuild products
  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
  • Colour picked to suit the job
  • You choose the colour before work begins

Keeping the joints in good condition

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Give housekeeping the cure time for every room
  • Use mild cleaners on sealant, not bleach or abrasives
  • Leave squeegees in busy showers
  • Get split or lifting joints looked at early

Strong chemicals and scourers wear silicone out faster. Ask cleaners to use mild products and soft cloths on the sealant, with stronger products kept off the bead.

Mould in shared washrooms gets noticed and talked about. The longer it’s left, the deeper it grows into the silicone, and only replacement fixes it.

How the visit works

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes as long as the scope needs, from one welfare room to a full building. For a place like Earlston, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.

  1. We start with a site walk to agree the rooms and the timing.
  2. Every area is sheeted and the old silicone stripped out.
  3. Joints are cleaned, treated for mould and dried.
  4. New sealant suited to each area is applied and tooled.
  5. Each room is checked and handed back with its cure time.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Advice

When it is not the sealant

In fairness, some problems need a different trade:

  • Fire risk assessments or certification
  • A shower tray, bath or basin that’s cracked or broken
  • A broken extractor fan behind the mould problem

If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Retail & leisure sites
  • Welfare facilities
  • Rental portfolios
  • Office washrooms & kitchens
  • Hotel bathrooms
  • Student & care accommodation

Different surfaces, different methods

Hotel bathrooms

In a hotel, every bathroom is used and cleaned daily, so joints are finished smooth and sealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

Rental portfolios

An empty property is easy to reseal, ready for the next tenant.

Your questions about commercial sealant in Earlston

Do you work for landlords with property near Tweedbank station?

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Is Earlston within the area you cover?

Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Does someone need to be in?

If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?

No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new sealant bonds properly.

Can you work outside opening hours?

In many cases. Let us know when the building is quietest, and we will plan the work around them.

When can guests or staff use the shower again?

Usually after around 24 hours. Each room is handed back with the cure time for the product used.

Can you reseal hotel rooms while we stay open?

Yes. We agree a batch of rooms for each visit, working around check-out and check-in where possible.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

What commercial sealant looks like in Earlston

In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, and keeping sealant sound across a portfolio is part of that.

If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Earlston Parish Church, any kitchen and washrooms need the same sealant care as any other building. If you let a flat or house near Tweedbank station, sealant work can be quoted for a single flat or a whole portfolio. If you look after a building such as Earlston High School, washroom and kitchen sealant can be programmed around term times or opening hours.
