Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Pass on the cure time to whoever cleans the rooms
- Log resealing so you know what’s due
- Book larger programmes for quieter times of year
- Include the silicone on your room checklists
Daily cleaning with harsh chemicals shortens the life of any sealant. Ask cleaners to use mild products and soft cloths on the sealant.
Signs to look for: mould, splits, peeling corners or water marks downstairs. When you see them, it’s time to plan a reseal.
What the job involves on each surface
Retail & leisure sites
Customer toilets reflect on the business, and clean, neat sealant makes them look cared for.
Student & care accommodation
Empty rooms between terms or tenancies are easy to reseal.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Tiles coming off the wall
- Leaking pipework, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Damaged sanitaryware that needs replacing
If you are not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Office washrooms & kitchens

What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work starts. Most jobs take a few hours for a single washroom, longer for a whole building. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- Tell us the rooms, hours and site rules, and we will plan the programme.
- 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.
- We reseal with the right product for each joint.
- Each finished area is checked with you and given a cure time.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking restrictions
Getting a quote
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email pictures if that is easy.

When to call us in Smeaton
Quick fixes come back quickly. Sealing over old silicone, sealing wet joints or using the wrong product all lead to the same thing: another reseal before long.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Tired sealant in let properties
- Silicone laid over old silicone by a previous contractor
- Joints that need doing before an inspection or audit
- Water marks on ceilings under bathrooms
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Prestonkirk Parish Church, any kitchen and washrooms need the same sealant care as any other building.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Who turns up on the day
- How the colour is chosen
