Commercial & hotel sealant in Footdee, Aberdeen
Problem with your washrooms, bathrooms and kitchens in Footdee? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Split sealant where wet room floors meet walls
- Large numbers of bathrooms needing the same work
- Black, stained silicone in guest bathrooms
When to call us in Footdee
In office kitchens and tea points, joints are wet and wiped all day, so sealant there wears and stains. The worktop and sink edges normally fail first.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Rental bathrooms that need resealing between tenants
- Shower leaks reaching the floor below
- Black, stained silicone in guest bathrooms
- Whole floors of tired en suites
Community buildings like St Fittick's Church are part of the picture too: any kitchen and washrooms need the same sealant care as any other building.

How we handle commercial sealant in Footdee
In a hotel, office or washroom, failed sealant is more than an eyesore. It’s a cleaning problem, a leak risk and something guests and staff notice. We reseal bathrooms, washrooms, welfare areas and kitchens so they look cared for again. Common call-outs are for repeated reseals that don’t last and tired sealant in let properties, on rental portfolios, student & care accommodation and hotel bathrooms.
For a place like Footdee, the journey and timings are planned in advance, so the job can fit around guests, residents or opening hours where possible.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Note the date each area was done
- Give housekeeping the cure time for every room
- Use mild cleaners on sealant, not bleach or abrasives
- Include the silicone on your room checklists
A squeegee in each shower is a simple help: less water sits on the joints between uses.
Watch for the warning signs: black spots in the silicone, corners lifting, staining on the ceiling below or a musty smell. When you see them, it’s time to plan a reseal.
How the visit works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours per area, with larger sites planned over several visits. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- We start with a site walk to agree the rooms and the timing.
- Every area is sheeted and the old silicone stripped out.
- Joints are cleaned, treated for mould and dried.
- We lay the right sealant for each area, with anti-fungal silicone in wet rooms.
- Rooms are checked and returned with a cure time so staff know when to use them.
Before we arrive
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention any tricky access

Commercial buildings in Footdee
For seaside hotels, guest houses and holiday lets around Footdee, heavy use in the busy months is hard on washroom and kitchen sealant, and any building work there should leave fire-rated joints made good. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, so landlords with several properties often need sealant work across them all.
Schools such as Torry Academy are buildings too, and washroom and kitchen sealant can be programmed around term times or opening hours. Rented homes near Aberdeen station change hands often, and we can quote for one property or a whole portfolio of rentals.

Can I do it myself?
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 does not work out, we can still put it right.
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.
Footdee: your questions answered
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Aberdeen station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you take on hotel work around Footdee?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
What should I tell you?
Tell us what needs doing and where, with photos by email if possible. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
How long will you be here?
It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take a morning for a small washroom, and a planned programme for bigger sites. We will tell you when we quote.
Can you supply method statements and risk assessments?
We are fully insured, and we will go through your site’s requirements with you. We’ll confirm what we can supply when we quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is generally more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Do the sealants smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Footdee
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can go on one quote.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Footdee and across Aberdeen. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.
What happens if it’s left?
Fixing rooms one complaint at a time is the slow way. A planned programme works through every room, keeping disruption down and costs clear. 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.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
What you get with us
- Colour agreed with you before any work starts
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
