About our commercial sealant in Stenness
Hotel bathrooms take hard daily use and constant cleaning, so sealant wears out faster than it would at home. We work through rooms 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. We work on welfare facilities, hotel bathrooms and office washrooms & kitchens, and common reasons people get in touch are repeated reseals that don’t last and black, stained silicone in guest bathrooms.
For a place like Stenness, the journey and timings are planned in advance, so the job can fit around guests, residents or opening hours where possible.
All our work comes with our 12-month guarantee.

What the job involves on each surface
Hotel bathrooms
Hotel showers and baths get used and cleaned every day, so joints are finished smooth and sealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Rental portfolios
A sound seal protects the property as well as its appearance, especially where you rarely see the bathroom yourself.
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep extractor fans working and serviced
- Keep strong chemicals and scourers off the joints
- Add sealant to your planned maintenance checks
- Book larger programmes for quieter times of year
Extract fans need to work. In internal bathrooms, a weak or broken fan lets moisture linger, and that is what keeps mould away.
Water from a failed shower seal can travel: through floors, into ceilings and across into corridors. Dealing with the joint early stops that spread.
Why it’s worth doing now in Stenness
Replacing a whole washroom takes time, money and several trades. When the fittings are sound, renewing the sealant brings it back with far less upheaval. If something else is wrong, we will say so. 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.

Signs you need commercial sealant in Stenness
Commercial buildings settle and move with temperature, and stud walls move more than solid ones. The sealant between walls, trays and fittings absorbs that strain and eventually tear.
The most common problems we see are:
- Rental bathrooms that need resealing between tenants
- Failed floor-level joints in accessible wet rooms
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and stained
- Mouldy washroom sealant that staff and guests notice
In and around Stenness, as anywhere, good commercial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the colour is chosen
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- How long to leave it before use
- Whether they’re fully insured
When it isn’t the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
- A shower tray, bath or basin that is cracked or broken
- Faulty shower valves and leaking traps
If you are not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer.

What commercial sealant looks like in Stenness
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Stenness, 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. Island jobs need planning around ferries and the weather, so give us as much notice as you can.
For buildings such as Stenness Church, its kitchen and washroom sealant needs looking after like anywhere else.

Advice
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
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 fails, we can still redo it.
