- Whether the work is at height
- Any working-time requirements on site

Your questions about commercial sealant in Sprouston
Can you do commercial sealant in Sprouston?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Sprouston is part of that. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Sprouston?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
What information do you need?
Tell us what needs doing and where, plus photos if you have them. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Can you reseal hotel rooms while we stay open?
Yes. Each visit covers an agreed batch of rooms.
How long does the job take?
A typical job takes a morning for a small washroom, and a planned programme for bigger sites, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Signs you need commercial sealant in Sprouston
In an accessible wet room, water spreads across the floor every use, so floor-to-wall joints take standing water. A failed joint there can soon let water into the floor or walls.
The most common problems we see are:
- Whole floors of tired en suites
- Leaks from showers into rooms or ceilings below
- Joints that need doing before an inspection or audit
- Rental bathrooms that need resealing between tenants
Community buildings like Sprouston Parish Church are part of the picture too: its kitchen and washroom sealant needs looking after like anywhere else.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether VAT is included
- What preparation is included
- Whether you can choose the colour
- When the joint can take water or movement
Why it’s worth doing now in Sprouston
A leaking shower in a hotel room or flat above can damage the ceiling below. Then two rooms are out of action, not one. Resealing first is the smaller job. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
Why book with us
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Arbo and Everbuild products
- Colour agreed with you before we start
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows

What the job involves on each surface
Rental portfolios
An empty property is easy to reseal, so the next tenant moves in to clean, sound joints.
Hotel bathrooms
Guest bathrooms are resealed room by room or in batches, keeping most of the hotel open. Each room is handed back with its cure time for housekeeping.
Can I do it myself?
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. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Note the date each area was done
- Check the joints during routine room inspections
- Keep strong chemicals and scourers off the joints
- Don’t leave a failed joint until the next refurbishment
Daily cleaning with harsh chemicals shortens the life of any sealant. A mild cleaner and a soft cloth is enough for the joints.
Rooms out of use cost a hotel or landlord money. Small sealant faults caught early can be fixed between bookings or tenancies, before they become leaks that take the room out of use.
Commercial buildings in Sprouston
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, so landlords with several properties often need sealant work across them all.
If you look after a building such as Kelso High School, sealant in washrooms, kitchens and changing areas can be renewed around term times or opening hours.
