About our commercial sealant in Lauder
With over 20 years in sealant work, we’re a fully insured, ARBOMaster approved team. If your site needs RAMS or insurance details, tell us, and we’ll confirm what we can provide. Typical jobs include joints that need doing before an inspection or audit and leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas, across hotel bathrooms, retail & leisure sites and welfare facilities.
In a smaller place like Lauder, commercial jobs are more likely to be a hotel, guest house, school, surgery or community hall than an office block. All of them have washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints that need looking after.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Water damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler or builder
- Faulty shower valves and leaking traps
- Extraction that isn’t working, which needs an electrician or ventilation contractor

Lauder questions
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Lauder?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
I let a flat near Stow station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
When can guests or staff use the shower again?
Around 24 hours is typical for sanitary silicone. Housekeeping get the cure time for each room.
What sealant do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you work in Lauder?
Yes, we do. Lauder is part of the area we cover, and the service is the same as everywhere else.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
We will suggest a colour to suit the surroundings, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The product needed can limit the range.
Workplaces and buildings in Lauder
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, and keeping sealant sound across a portfolio is part of that. Lauder 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.

What we’re called out for in Lauder
A rushed reseal between guests rarely lasts. New silicone over old, joints that weren’t dried, or an unsuitable product all lead to the same thing: another reseal before long.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Failed joints in office kitchens and tea points
- Silicone laid over old silicone by a previous contractor
- Tired sealant ahead of a health and safety audit
- Washroom sealant that looks dirty however often it’s cleaned
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Mary's Parish Church, its kitchen and washroom sealant needs looking after like anywhere else.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether VAT is included
- Who turns up on the day
- How long to leave it before use
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of rooms, depending on how much there is to do. Outside jobs in Lauder need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- First we visit and agree the scope, the sequence and the working hours.
- Room by room, we protect the area and remove all the old sealant.
- The joints are degreased, treated and left to dry.
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes into wet areas, with suitable sealants elsewhere.
- We check every room and give its cure time for housekeeping.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any tricky access

Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Add sealant to your planned maintenance checks
- Don’t leave a failed joint until the next refurbishment
- Tell cleaning staff when each room can be used
- Note the date each area was done
Extract fans need to work. In internal bathrooms, a weak or broken fan lets moisture linger, and that’s what keeps mould away.
Black sealant in a staff washroom or guest bathroom draws complaints. The longer it’s left, the deeper it grows into the silicone, so the fix is replacement.
Leave it or put it right?
A quick bead over the old sealant might get a room back in use today, but it will not bond, and it lifts again soon. Doing it properly once is less disruptive than doing it badly twice. In a place like Lauder, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
