Questions from Pencaitland
I let a flat near Prestonpans station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is Pencaitland in your area for commercial sealant?
Yes, Pencaitland is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Is out-of-hours working possible?
Often, yes. Let us know when the building is quietest, and we will see what can be arranged.
How long does the job take?
As a guide, most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of rooms. Bigger jobs take longer.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We’re a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
When can guests or staff use the shower again?
Plan for around 24 hours, or the cure time we give for that area. Planning the order of rooms keeps that downtime manageable.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
Commercial sealant in Pencaitland
With over 20 years in sealant work, we are a fully insured, ARBOMaster approved team. If your site needs RAMS or insurance details, tell us, and we’ll confirm what we can supply with the quote. We work on rental portfolios, hotel bathrooms and office washrooms & kitchens, and the jobs we see most are too many rooms to reseal without closing the building and washroom sealant that looks dirty however often it’s cleaned.
If you look after holiday lets, a guest house or a community building in or near Pencaitland, the washrooms and kitchens need the same care as any city building, and fire-rated joints should be kept in good order.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Why deal with it now?
Guests and staff judge a building by its bathrooms. Black sealant makes a clean room look dirty, and scrubbing will not fix it. New sealant does. Around Pencaitland, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
Why us?
- Tidy, careful work
- 12-month guarantee on every job
- You choose the colour before work begins
- We never seal over old sealant
Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Do not leave a failed joint until the next refurbishment
- Report broken fans quickly
- Check the joints during routine room inspections
- Ask cleaners to go gently on the silicone
Squeegees in guest and staff showers help: less water sits on the joints between uses.
Mould in shared washrooms gets noticed and talked about. The longer it’s left, the deeper it grows into the silicone, and only replacement fixes it.

What sealant work can’t fix

- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
- A broken extractor fan behind the mould problem
- Cracked trays or baths rather than failed joints
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.

How we quote for commercial sealant
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- The type of sealant required
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Whether the work is at height
- The size of the job
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Roughly how big the job is
- What’s wrong with the joints now
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Common problems we fix in Pencaitland
Commercial buildings settle and move with temperature, and lightweight partitions flex more than masonry. Joints between different materials take the strain and eventually tear.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Water marks on ceilings under bathrooms
- Split sealant where wet room floors meet walls
- Large numbers of bathrooms needing the same work
- Failed joints in office kitchens and tea points
In and around Pencaitland, as anywhere, good commercial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
