How we handle commercial sealant in Locharbriggs
In student and care accommodation, there are often many near-identical bathrooms. We agree a programme and work through them in order, fitting around residents and staff. If you have split sealant where wet room floors meet walls and washroom sealant that looks dirty however often it’s cleaned, we can help, on rental portfolios, office washrooms & kitchens and retail & leisure sites alike.
In a smaller place like Locharbriggs, commercial jobs are more likely to be a hotel, guest house, school, surgery or community hall than an office block. Each needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints kept in good order.
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dumfries and Galloway.

How we quote for commercial sealant

- Whether it has been sealed before
- The problem you’ve noticed

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
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.
Locharbriggs: your questions answered
I let a flat near Dumfries station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is Locharbriggs in your area for commercial sealant?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Locharbriggs is part of that. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access.
Can you take on a whole building?
Yes, we can. We work through big sites room by room or floor by floor, keeping most of it in use.
Can you work outside opening hours?
In many cases. Let us know when the building is quietest, and we will plan the work around them.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
How long does the job take?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours per room, so whole buildings are phased. We will tell you when we quote.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Common problems we fix in Locharbriggs
Quick fixes come back quickly. New silicone over old, joints that weren’t dried, or an unsuitable product all lead to the same thing: another reseal before long.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Failed joints in office kitchens and tea points
- Shower leaks reaching the floor below
- Sealant failing again soon after quick repairs
- Leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas

What else we do in Locharbriggs
What happens if it’s left?
In a building with rooms above rooms, a failed shower seal can soon show on a ceiling below. Then two rooms are out of action, not one. Resealing first is the smaller job. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.
