Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.

Commercial sealant in Rutherglen

Guest bathrooms are cleaned every day and used by different people every night, so sealant there has a hard life. Rooms are resealed in batches, so only a few are out of use at once, with a cure time for each room so housekeeping know when to release it. If you’re dealing with split sealant around staff kitchen worktops and sinks and water marks on ceilings under bathrooms, we can put it right, on rental portfolios, student & care accommodation and retail & leisure sites alike.

For holiday lets, guest houses and community buildings in or near Rutherglen, the washrooms and kitchens need the same care as any city building, and fire-rated joints should be kept in good order.

Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Letting a property close to Rutherglen station? Then sealant work can be quoted for a single flat or a whole portfolio. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Stonelaw Parish Church, halls and community kitchens see heavy use, and their sealant shows it.

Why it’s worth doing now in Rutherglen

In a building with rooms above rooms, a failed shower seal can soon show on a ceiling below. That means a second room out of use and a repair to pay for. Resealing first is the smaller job. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re unsure, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • Faulty shower valves and leaking traps
  • A broken extractor fan behind the mould problem
  • Cracked trays or baths rather than failed joints

If you’re not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we seal

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

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Give housekeeping the cure time for every room
  • Book larger programmes for quieter times of year
  • Check the joints during routine room inspections
  • Do not leave a failed joint until the next refurbishment

Extract fans need to work. Where a room has no window, the fan is what dries it out, and that’s what keeps mould away.

It’s easier to plan a programme than to react to failures. We can fit the work around bookings, shifts and opening hours, rather than closed at short notice.

Common problems we fix in Rutherglen

In an accessible wet room, water spreads across the floor every use, so floor-to-wall joints take standing water. Any split there can let water through quickly.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Black, stained silicone in guest bathrooms
  • Washrooms that need sorting before an inspection
  • Worktop sealant that has shrunk and stained
  • Leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Stonelaw High School, sealant in washrooms, kitchens and changing areas can be renewed around term times or opening hours.

Questions to ask before you book

  • What insurance they hold
  • What guarantee comes with the work
  • What the cure time is
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?

Our hiring checklist

DIY sealant or a professional job?

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. Everything old must be removed first.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

Common questions in Rutherglen

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Rutherglen station?

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 Rutherglen within the area you cover?

Yes, Rutherglen is covered. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Will there be a smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.

What sealant do you use?

The product depends on the job: 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 you quote for more than one area?

Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

Can you work outside opening hours?

That can be arranged. We will confirm the working hours with your quote.

How much does commercial sealant cost in Rutherglen?

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a short description of the job.

Can you take on a whole building?

Yes. After a site walk, we agree the scope and sequence, and you get one clear quote.

The process

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a few hours per area, with larger sites planned over several visits, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere like Rutherglen may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.

  1. We agree a programme with you: which rooms, in what order, at what times.
  2. We go through your site’s paperwork needs, such as RAMS, before work begins.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
