FAQs for Inverleith
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Inverleith?
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.
Is Inverleith in your area for commercial sealant?
Yes, Inverleith is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
How much does commercial sealant cost in Inverleith?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before any work starts.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we will agree it with you first.
When can guests or staff use the shower again?
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.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. The old sealant always comes out first.
Can you reseal between tenancies?
Yes. For several properties, we can plan the work as one programme.
About our commercial sealant in Inverleith
Staff facilities can’t be out of action for long. We can plan the work for early mornings or out of hours so the working day is disturbed as little as possible. Each area is handed back with its cure time. We work on rental portfolios, student & care accommodation and retail & leisure sites, and people most often call us about leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas and mouldy bathrooms flagged at a tenancy check.
Scotland has its own building regulations, with their own technical handbooks. In Inverleith, as anywhere, fire-rated sealant goes in to the product’s tested details and washroom sealant is chosen to cope with heavy use.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Commercial sealant around Inverleith
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Inverleith, 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. Inverleith has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. For hotels, a room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
For landlords with property near Edinburgh Waverley station, sealant work can be quoted for a single flat or a whole portfolio. Schools such as Broughton High School are buildings too, and sealant in washrooms, kitchens and changing areas can be renewed around term times or opening hours.

Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Tiles coming off the wall
- Assessing what fire stopping a building needs
- Cracked trays or baths rather than failed joints
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Welfare facilities
- Student & care accommodation
- Retail & leisure sites
- Rental portfolios
- Hotel bathrooms
- Office washrooms & kitchens
Should I try it myself first?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Why it’s worth doing now in Inverleith
Room by room, the work is quick: it takes as long as the scope needs, from one welfare room to a full building. Each area is then left to cure for the time we give you, so planning the order matters more than the hours on site. Wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint on the outside of a city building, and in Inverleith, damp can spread through stone and plaster before anyone sees it.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
What you get with us
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- 20+ years of sealant experience
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- We agree the colour with you first

Common problems we fix in Inverleith
Wet rooms and accessible showers are designed for the whole floor to get wet, so floor-to-wall joints take standing water. Any split there can let water through quickly.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Water marks on ceilings under bathrooms
- Silicone laid over old silicone by a previous contractor
- Leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and stained
For buildings such as Inverleith Parish Church, halls and community kitchens see heavy use, and their sealant shows it.

The process
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours per area, with larger sites planned over several visits in most cases. Inside a flat in Inverleith, the job is planned with you; outside, shared parts may need the factor or other owners involved. Tell us which applies when you book.
- The first visit is a look round the site to agree the scope.
- We agree when we will work, with early or out-of-hours slots where they can be arranged.
- Each area is protected and stripped of old sealant.
- Joints are dried, then resealed and tooled neatly.
- We let your team know the cure time for every area.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Use mild cleaners on sealant, not bleach or abrasives
- Keep a record of which rooms were resealed and when
- Tell cleaning staff when each room can be used
- Schedule work around occupancy
Strong chemicals and scourers wear silicone out faster. A mild cleaner and a soft cloth is enough for the joints, with stronger products kept off the bead.
Planned resealing is easier to manage than emergency repairs. We can fit the work around bookings, shifts and opening hours, instead of rooms closing without warning.
