What we cannot put right

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before we start. Sealant will not put right:

  • Damaged sanitaryware that needs replacing
  • Assessing what fire stopping a building needs
  • Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant

If you’re not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Where we work in Rackwick

  • Hotel bathrooms
  • Rental portfolios
  • Office washrooms & kitchens
  • Student & care accommodation
  • Retail & leisure sites
  • Welfare facilities

How to look after the new joints

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:

  • Keep strong chemicals and scourers off the joints
  • Tell cleaning staff when each room can be used
  • Plan resealing around quiet periods
  • Check extract fans are actually running

Ask staff to report splits or lifting sealant early. A small gap caught quickly is a short fix.

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.

How the visit works

The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours per area, with larger sites planned over several visits, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.

  1. We agree a programme with you: which rooms, in what order, at what times.
  2. Tell us what paperwork your site needs, and we confirm what we can supply before any work starts.
  3. Old sealant is cut out room by room and joints cleaned and treated.
  4. Anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes into wet areas, with suitable sealant elsewhere.
  5. Rooms are handed back in order, each with its cure time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Common questions in Rackwick

Is Rackwick within the area you cover?

Is it worth trying it myself?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

When can guests or staff use the shower again?

Follow the cure time we give you, which is generally around 24 hours. Planning the order of rooms keeps that downtime manageable.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.

What the job involves on each surface

Welfare facilities

Busy staff showers wear sealant out quickly. We reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

Hotel bathrooms

Guest bathrooms are resealed room by room or in batches, so most rooms stay available. Housekeeping get a cure time for each room.

Do you need commercial sealant in Rackwick?

Staff kitchens and food areas see constant splashing and wiping, so sealant there wears and stains. Worktop and sink joints are often the first to go.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Split sealant where wet room floors meet walls
  • Mouldy washroom sealant that staff and guests notice
  • Leaks from showers into rooms or ceilings below
  • Silicone laid over old silicone by a previous contractor

For buildings such as Baptist Church, halls and community kitchens see heavy use, and their sealant shows it.
