Commercial & hotel sealant in Magdalene, Edinburgh
Commercial sealant across Magdalene and nearby, with old sealant always removed completely and a one-year guarantee.
- Too many rooms to reseal without closing the building
- Failed joints in office kitchens and tea points
- Split sealant where wet room floors meet walls
How we handle commercial sealant in Magdalene
Mouldy or split sealant in a commercial building causes more than a bad impression. Cleaners struggle with it, water gets through it and people notice it. We reseal bathrooms, washrooms, welfare areas and kitchens so they look cared for again. Common call-outs are for whole floors of tired en suites and black, stained silicone in guest bathrooms, on rental portfolios, hotel bathrooms and retail & leisure sites.
In Scotland’s cities, hotels and student accommodation need sealant work done without emptying the building, so jobs in Magdalene can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

How it works
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a morning for a small washroom, and a planned programme for bigger sites. Parking in city streets around Magdalene can be tight or controlled, so it helps to know about permits or nearby bays. For flats, mention the door entry system and any shared-stair arrangements.
- We walk the site with you and agree the rooms, the order and the hours.
- Each area is protected and the old sealant cut out completely.
- Joints are cleaned, treated for mould and dried.
- New sealant suited to each area is applied and tooled.
- Rooms are checked and returned with a cure time so staff know when to use them.
Preparing for the visit

What we cannot put right
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Leaking pipework, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Extraction that is not working, which needs an electrician or ventilation contractor
- Damaged sanitaryware that needs replacing
If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.
What we seal
- Hotel bathrooms
- Welfare facilities
- Office washrooms & kitchens
- Student & care accommodation
- Retail & leisure sites

What the job involves on each surface
Hotel bathrooms
Hotel showers and baths get used and cleaned every day, so we use anti-fungal sanitary silicone and finish joints smooth for easy cleaning.
Retail & leisure sites
Shops, gyms, leisure centres and restaurants all have joints that need sealing. We can plan around opening hours.
Workplaces and buildings in Magdalene
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Magdalene, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, so landlords with several properties often need sealant work across them all.
Schools such as Portobello High School are buildings too, and washroom and kitchen sealant can be programmed around term times or opening hours.

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Check extract fans are actually running
- Act on lifting sealant before it leaks
- Schedule work around occupancy
- Put a squeegee in each shower
Each room is handed back with its cure time, which is usually around 24 hours. Pass it on to housekeeping or cleaners so nobody showers or cleans the joint too early.
Water from a failed shower seal can travel: into ceilings below, walls next door and service voids. Dealing with the joint early stops that spread.
Why act early in Magdalene
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. A reseal now avoids that. In a Scottish city tenement, failed sealant affects more than one flat: water can reach the flat below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-stopping affect the whole stair.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
