DIY sealant or a professional job?

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

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 fails, we can still redo it.

Landlord and commercial work in Gatehouse of Fleet

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll give you a quote.

What the job involves on each surface

Student & care accommodation

Vacant rooms make resealing quick and simple, but occupied rooms can be planned in as well.

Hotel bathrooms

Hotel showers and baths get used and cleaned every day, so we use anti-fungal sanitary silicone and finish joints smooth for easy cleaning.

What happens if it’s left?

Replacing a whole washroom takes time, money and several trades. If the fittings are in good order, new sealant is often all it needs. If something else is wrong, we will say so. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.

We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll talk you through it.

Commercial sealant in Gatehouse of Fleet: local notes

If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Gatehouse of Fleet, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, so landlords with several properties often need sealant work across them all.

For buildings such as St Mary's Episcopal Church, any kitchen and washrooms need the same sealant care as any other building.

Gatehouse of Fleet: your questions answered

Do you work in hotels near Gatehouse of Fleet?

Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.

Is Gatehouse of Fleet within the area you cover?

Yes. Gatehouse of Fleet is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

What sealant do you use?

The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.

How long do rooms need to be out of use?

Plan for around 24 hours, or the cure time we give for that area. A room-by-room programme keeps only a few rooms out at once.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Just list everything you need.

Is there any odour?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Opening a window helps.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.

When to call us in Gatehouse of Fleet

Internal washrooms and en suites without a window rely entirely on extraction, so if the fan is weak, steam lingers and the sealant stays damp. That’s when black mould sets into the bead.

The problems people generally mention when they call are:

  • Large numbers of bathrooms needing the same work
  • Leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas
  • Black, stained silicone in guest bathrooms
  • Worktop sealant that has shrunk and stained

In and around Gatehouse of Fleet, as anywhere, good commercial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

How the visit works

There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours for a single washroom, longer for a whole building in most cases. For a place like Gatehouse of Fleet, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.

  1. We start with a site walk to agree the rooms and the timing.
  2. Room by room, we protect the area and remove all the old sealant.
  3. Joints are cleaned, treated for mould and dried.
  4. We lay the right sealant for each area, with anti-fungal silicone in wet rooms.
  5. Each room is checked and handed back with its cure time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
