Keeping the joints in good condition

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Use mild cleaners on sealant, not bleach or abrasives
  • Schedule work around occupancy
  • Act on lifting sealant before it leaks
  • Encourage users to squeegee shower walls

Add sealant checks to your planned maintenance. A quick look at each bathroom when rooms are checked spots problems early.

Water from a failed shower seal can travel: through floors, into ceilings and across into corridors. Early resealing keeps it from getting that far.

Why act early in Howden

Fixing rooms one complaint at a time is the slow way. A planned programme deals with every room in order, keeping disruption down and costs clear. In a place like Howden, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

What we do, step by step

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a morning for a small washroom, and a planned programme for bigger sites. Around Howden, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.

  1. First we visit and agree the scope, the sequence and the working hours.
  2. Each area is protected and the old sealant cut out completely.
  3. Joints are cleaned, treated for mould and dried.
  4. Anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes into wet areas, with suitable sealants elsewhere.
  5. We check every room and give its cure time for housekeeping.

Before we arrive

  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

When to call us in Howden

Commercial buildings settle and move with temperature, and stud walls move more than solid ones. Joints between different materials take the strain until it tears.

People usually contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Tired sealant ahead of a health and safety audit
  • Large numbers of bathrooms needing the same work
  • Failed floor-level joints in accessible wet rooms
  • Silicone laid over old silicone by a previous contractor

Schools such as St. Margaret's Academy are buildings too, and busy washrooms and kitchens can be resealed in phases so they stay open.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • What guarantee comes with the work
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint

How to choose a mastic man

Surface by surface

Retail & leisure sites

Retail and leisure sites have washrooms, kitchens and changing areas with sealant to maintain. Work can be arranged outside opening hours where that is possible.

Rental portfolios

Good sealant prevents leaks that cause bigger repairs.

When something else is needed

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:

  • Fire risk assessments or certification
  • Extraction that isn’t working, which needs an electrician or ventilation contractor
  • Tiles coming off the wall

If you’re not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we seal

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

What affects the quote in Howden

You will get a clear quote before any work starts. It takes into account:

  • The number and length of the joints
  • Access and height
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • Mould in or behind the old joints

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Where the property is
