Your questions about commercial sealant in Redford
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Kingsknowe station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is there a guarantee on commercial sealant in Redford?
All our work, in Redford and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
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. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can the hotel stay open while you work?
Yes, in most cases. Each visit covers an agreed batch of rooms, working around check-out and check-in where possible.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll explain which colours are available.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
How long will you be here?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours for a single washroom, longer for a whole building. We will tell you when we quote.
Commercial sealant in Redford, done properly
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 supply with the quote. If you have shower leaks reaching the floor below and too many rooms to reseal without closing the building, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Scotland’s cities have offices, hotels, student flats, care homes and tenement blocks looked after by factors. In Redford, that can mean resealing washrooms room by room or fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables in common areas.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Redford and across Edinburgh.

Different surfaces, different methods
Welfare facilities
Welfare facilities, shower rooms and changing areas need to stay usable. We can plan the work in sections so some facilities stay open.
Rental portfolios
Between tenancies is a good time to reseal, so the next tenant moves in to clean, sound joints.
What we are called out for in Redford
Internal washrooms and en suites without a window rely entirely on extraction, so if the fan is weak, steam lingers and the sealant stays damp. That is when black mould sets into the bead.
Look out for any of the following:
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and stained
- Washrooms that need sorting before an inspection
- Split sealant where wet room floors meet walls
- Shower leaks reaching the floor below
Letting a property close to Kingsknowe station? Then several rental properties can be resealed on one programme.

- What insurance they hold
What affects the quote in Redford
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- The type of sealant required
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Asking for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Where the property is
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- The rough size of the job
To get a quote, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the location and a short description of the problem. We will send you a clear quote before any work starts.
What sealant work can’t fix
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- A shower tray, bath or basin that’s cracked or broken
- Extraction that is not working, which needs an electrician or ventilation contractor
- Water damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler or builder
If you are not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we seal
- Rental portfolios
- Student & care accommodation
- Hotel bathrooms
- Retail & leisure sites
- Office washrooms & kitchens
- Welfare facilities
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can go on one quote, and we are fully insured.
If you manage several properties in or around Redford, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
Commercial buildings in Redford
In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, and keeping sealant sound across a portfolio is part of that.
For buildings such as St Johns Colinton Mains Church, any kitchen and washrooms need the same sealant care as any other building. If you look after a building such as Army School of Bagpipe Music and Highland Drumming, washroom and kitchen sealant can be programmed around term times or opening hours.

What we do, step by step
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours per room, so whole buildings are phased and we leave things clean and tidy. Inside a flat in Redford, the job is planned with you; outside, shared parts may need the factor or other owners involved. Tell us which applies when you book.
- We agree a programme with you: which rooms, in what order, at what times.
- We go through your site’s paperwork needs, such as RAMS, before work begins.
- In each room, the old bead comes out and the joint is cleaned and treated.
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes into wet areas, with suitable sealant elsewhere.
- Rooms are handed back in order, each with its cure time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Why deal with it now?
Patching the worst rooms as complaints come in is hard to manage. A planned programme works through every room, keeping disruption down and costs clear. In a Scottish city tenement, failed sealant affects more than one flat: a leak can come through the ceiling below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-rated joints matter to every flat.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.
