Signs you need commercial sealant in Riccarton
Plenty of commercial bathrooms have no window at all, so if the fan is weak, steam lingers and the sealant stays damp. That’s when black mould sets into the bead.
People normally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Whole floors of tired en suites
- Repeated reseals that do not last
- Failed joints in office kitchens and tea points
- Rental bathrooms that need resealing between tenants
In and around Riccarton, as anywhere, good commercial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- What preparation is included

Around Riccarton
The closest station to Riccarton is Edinburgh Park station, roughly 1 mile north-east of the centre. A little further out are Corstorphine Hospital (2.7 miles north-east) and Craigcrook Castle (3.5 miles north-east). The countryside around Riccarton includes Warklaw Hill and The New Leaf Co-op.
Why deal with it now?
A quick bead over the old sealant might get a room back in use today, but it will not bond, and it lifts again soon. One proper reseal beats several quick ones. In an older home around Riccarton, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

Riccarton: your questions answered
Do you cover Riccarton for commercial sealant?
Yes, Riccarton is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Edinburgh Park station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
How long does the job take?
Typically it takes a few hours per room, so whole buildings are phased. Larger jobs naturally take longer.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we are fully insured.
Can you start early or work out of hours?
Early starts and out-of-hours work can be arranged. Tell us what you need when you ask for a quote.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Is commercial work guaranteed?
Yes, for 12 months. Regular gentle cleaning and working extraction help the sealant last.
How it works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a morning for a small washroom, and a planned programme for bigger sites, depending on the size of the job. Outside jobs in Riccarton need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- The first visit is a look round the site to agree the scope.
- We agree when we’ll work, with early or out-of-hours slots where they can be arranged.
- Each area is protected and stripped of old sealant.
- Once dry, every joint is resealed and tooled.
- We let your team know the cure time for every area.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
How to get a quote
Getting a quote is simple: let us know what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
Advice
Also in Riccarton
What affects the cost of commercial sealant
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The amount of work
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The product the joint needs
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Where the property is
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll talk you through the work.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
