Ruthven: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Huntly station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Do you cover smaller places like Ruthven?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and the location, plus pictures if you have them. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Do you take on large, multi-room jobs?
Yes. We’ll walk the site, agree the scope and the order, and you get one clear quote.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The product needed can limit the range.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

If your site needs RAMS or insurance details, tell us, and we will confirm what we can supply with the quote. We work on rental portfolios, student & care accommodation and office washrooms & kitchens, and the jobs we see most are tired sealant ahead of a health and safety audit and tired sealant in let properties.
If you look after holiday lets, a guest house or a community building in or near Ruthven, the washrooms and kitchens need the same care as any city building, and fire-rated joints should be kept in good order.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Pass on the cure time to whoever cleans the rooms
- Put a squeegee in each shower
- Act on lifting sealant before it leaks
- Log resealing so you know what’s due
Squeegees in guest and staff showers help: walls and trays dry faster, and so does the sealant.
Signs to look for: mould, splits, peeling corners or water marks downstairs. Any of these means the joints need attention.
What we are called out for in Ruthven
Plenty of commercial bathrooms have no window at all, and where extraction is poor, damp hangs around. Mould then takes hold in the silicone.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Split sealant around staff kitchen worktops and sinks
- Leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas
- Large numbers of bathrooms needing the same work
- Tired sealant in let properties
Rented homes near Huntly station change hands often, and several rental properties can be resealed on one programme.
What to look for in a quote
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Whether they’re fully insured
When something else is needed
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Assessing what fire stopping a building needs
- A shower tray, bath or basin that is cracked or broken
- Water coming from plumbing rather than sealant
