In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

When to call us in Kingsknowe

Plenty of commercial bathrooms have no window at all, so if the fan is weak, steam lingers and the sealant stays damp. Mould then takes hold in the silicone.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Water marks on ceilings under bathrooms
  • Rental bathrooms that need resealing between tenants
  • Split sealant around staff kitchen worktops and sinks
  • Black, stained silicone in guest bathrooms

For landlords with property near Kingsknowe station, we can quote for one property or a whole portfolio of rentals.

Before you book anyone

  • Is VAT in the price?
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • How much experience the applicator has
  • What product goes in the joint

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work generally takes a few hours per area, with larger sites planned over several visits. In a Scottish city, a lot of jobs are in tenement flats, up a common stair from a shared close. For a job in Kingsknowe, tell us the floor, how the door entry system works and where we can park nearby.

  1. The first visit is a look round the site to agree the scope.
  2. We agree when we’ll work, with early or out-of-hours slots where they can be arranged.
  3. Areas are protected and the failed sealant removed.
  4. Joints are dried, then resealed and tooled neatly.
  5. Housekeeping or site staff are told when each area can be used.

Before we arrive

  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Plan resealing around quiet periods
  • Tell cleaning staff when each room can be used
  • Log resealing so you know what’s due
  • Keep extractor fans working and serviced

Make it easy for staff to flag a failing joint. A small gap caught quickly is a short fix, and if anything looks wrong, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Planned resealing is easier to manage than emergency repairs. We can fit the work around bookings, shifts and opening hours, rather than closed at short notice.

Quotes for commercial sealant in Kingsknowe

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:

  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • The product the joint needs
  • How much there is to do
  • Access and height

There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll talk you through it.

What we need to know

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:

  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • The type of property
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height

For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that’s easier. Describe what needs sealing and we will explain what’s involved before giving you a price.

Should I try it myself first?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

What happens if it’s left?

Sealing over the old bead can seem the fastest option, but it will not bond, and it lifts again soon. One proper reseal beats several quick ones. Wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint on the outside of a city building, and in a tall building in Kingsknowe, damp can travel a long way before it shows.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
