Commercial & hotel sealant in Sullom, Shetland Islands
Commercial sealant across Sullom and nearby, with old sealant always removed completely.
- Tired sealant in let properties
- Split sealant where wet room floors meet walls
- Too many rooms to reseal without closing the building
How it works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before work begins. The work usually takes a few hours per area, with larger sites planned over several visits. Outdoor work around Sullom depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First we visit and agree the scope, the sequence and the working hours.
- Each area is protected and the old sealant cut out completely.
- The joints are degreased, treated and left to dry.
- We lay the right sealant for each area, with anti-fungal silicone in wet rooms.
- We check every room and give its cure time for housekeeping.
How to prepare
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

When to call us in Sullom
Internal washrooms and en suites without a window rely entirely on extraction, so if the fan is weak, steam lingers and the sealant stays damp. That is when black mould sets into the bead.
The most common problems we see are:
- Leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas
- Failed joints in office kitchens and tea points
- Washroom sealant that looks dirty however often it’s cleaned
- Washrooms that need sorting before an inspection
Around Sullom, as everywhere, commercial sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Pass on the cure time to whoever cleans the rooms
- Add sealant to your planned maintenance checks
- Log resealing so you know what’s due
- Act on lifting sealant before it leaks
Each room is handed back with its cure time, normally around 24 hours. Make sure housekeeping or cleaning staff know it so the new sealant isn’t wetted or scrubbed too soon.
Black sealant in a staff washroom or guest bathroom draws complaints. The longer it’s left, the deeper it grows into the silicone, so the fix is replacement.
What we can’t put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- A broken extractor fan behind the mould problem
- Faulty shower valves and leaking traps
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think.

FAQs for Sullom
Will you come out to Sullom?
Yes. Sullom is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland, including the islands, where work is planned around ferry crossings. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is commercial sealant in Sullom guaranteed?
All our work, in Sullom and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we’re fully insured too.
Can you take on a whole building?
Yes. We will walk the site, agree the scope and the order, and you get one clear quote.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
Can you work outside opening hours?
It can be arranged for many jobs. The hours are agreed before work starts.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Surface by surface
Office washrooms & kitchens
Kitchen and tea point joints are degreased and resealed, with a food-safe product beside sinks where needed.
Hotel bathrooms
Guest bathrooms are resealed room by room or in batches, so most rooms stay available. Each room is handed back with its cure time for housekeeping.
Can I do it myself?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
