Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. 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.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Questions from Salen
Is Salen in your area for commercial sealant?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Salen is part of that. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
Is Salen within the area you cover?
Yes, Salen is covered. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can the hotel stay open while you work?
Yes, in most cases. We agree a batch of rooms for each visit, working around check-out and check-in where possible.
Do you provide RAMS?
Let us know your site’s requirements. We will confirm what we can provide alongside the quote.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
The process
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes as long as the scope needs, from one welfare room to a full building from start to finish. For a place like Salen, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- First we visit and agree the scope, the sequence and the working hours.
- Room by room, we protect the area and remove all the old sealant.
- The joints are degreased, treated and left to dry.
- New sealant suited to each area is applied and tooled.
- Rooms are checked and returned with a cure time so staff know when to use them.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

How the job changes by surface
Student & care accommodation
Care homes need careful planning around residents, with each bathroom handed back with its cure time.
Hotel bathrooms
In a hotel, every bathroom is used and cleaned daily, so joints are finished smooth and sealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
What affects the cost of commercial sealant
You’ll get a clear quote before work begins. It’s based on:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- When we can work, for business premises
- How many areas need sealing
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
Asking for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The type of property
Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will take it from there.
What commercial sealant looks like in Salen
For seaside hotels, guest houses and holiday lets around Salen, heavy use in the busy months is hard on washroom and kitchen sealant, and any building work there should leave fire-rated joints made good. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, so landlords with several properties often need sealant work across them all.
In and around Salen, as anywhere, good commercial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Common problems we fix in Salen
Wet rooms and accessible showers are designed for the whole floor to get wet, so floor-to-wall joints take standing water. A failed joint there can soon let water into the floor or walls.
The problems people generally mention when they call are:
- Mouldy washroom sealant that staff and guests notice
- Tired sealant in let properties
- Joints that need doing before an inspection or audit
- Leaks from showers into rooms or ceilings below
Whether the job is in Salen itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.
Before you book anyone
- Whether you can choose the colour
- What the cure time is
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Is VAT in the price?
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Note the date each area was done
- Use mild cleaners on sealant, not bleach or abrasives
- Encourage users to squeegee shower walls
- Check extract fans are actually running
A squeegee in each shower is a simple help: walls and trays dry faster, and so does the sealant.
A room that can’t be let or used is lost income. Small sealant faults caught early can be fixed between bookings or tenancies, before they become leaks that take the room out of use.
