Commercial sealant in Fernieside
Guest bathrooms are cleaned every day and used by different people every night, so sealant there has a hard life. Rooms are resealed in batches, so only a few are out of use at once. We work on welfare facilities, retail & leisure sites and rental portfolios, and common reasons people get in touch are joints that need doing before an inspection or audit and failed joints in office kitchens and tea points.
Scotland’s cities have offices, hotels, student flats, care homes and tenement blocks looked after by factors. In Fernieside, that can mean resealing washrooms room by room or fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables in common areas.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

When to call us in Fernieside
Staff kitchens and food areas see constant splashing and wiping, so sealant there wears and stains. Worktop and sink joints are often the first to go.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Washroom sealant that looks dirty however often it’s cleaned
- Leaks from showers into rooms or ceilings below
- Failed floor-level joints in accessible wet rooms
- Tired sealant ahead of a health and safety audit
Rented homes near Shawfair station change hands often, and several rental properties can be resealed on one programme.
Before you book anyone
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- How much experience the applicator has
- When the joint can take water or movement

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
What the job involves on each surface
Hotel bathrooms
Early starts or out-of-hours work can be arranged around check-out and check-in, agreeing the order with housekeeping.
Office washrooms & kitchens
A row of basins on a vanity top has a long joint that collects water. We renew it in one tidy, continuous bead.
Why act early in Fernieside
Room by room, the work is quick: it takes a few hours for a single washroom, longer for a whole building. Each area is then left to cure for the time we give you, so the programme is planned around cure times. For landlords in Fernieside, damp and leaks can be a Repairing Standard issue, so failed sealant is best replaced before it becomes a complaint.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

How long does the job take?
A typical job takes a few hours per room, so whole buildings are phased. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

Do you take on large, multi-room jobs?
Yes. Our team has more than 20 years’ experience, and large programmes are planned around how the building is used.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We will explain which colours are available.
Commercial buildings in Fernieside
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Fernieside, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, and keeping sealant sound across a portfolio is part of that.
If you look after a building such as Liberton High School, washroom and kitchen sealant can be programmed around term times or opening hours. Community buildings like Liberton Parish Church are part of the picture too: halls and community kitchens see heavy use, and their sealant shows it.

What affects the cost of commercial sealant
We do not publish a price list. What we look at:
- Access and height
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How many areas need sealing
- Any mould that needs treating
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. The price is agreed before we begin.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- The rough size of the job
We do not publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To get started, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
