Commercial Sealant in Tankerness
Commercial sealant in Tankerness from a team with over 20 years’ experience. Rated 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews.
- Too many rooms to reseal without closing the building
- Mouldy bathrooms flagged at a tenancy check
- Failed joints in office kitchens and tea points
How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Log resealing so you know what’s due
- Tell cleaning staff when each room can be used
- Encourage users to squeegee shower walls
- Keep strong chemicals and scourers off the joints
Extract fans need to work. In internal bathrooms, a weak or broken fan lets moisture linger, and mould comes back faster without it.
Mould in shared washrooms gets noticed and talked about. Left long enough, it spreads through the bead, so the fix is replacement.
Commercial sealant in Tankerness
Commercial work is planned around the building, not the other way round. We can work room by room, floor by floor or in batches, and early starts or out-of-hours working can be arranged where it helps. If you have sealant failing again soon after quick repairs and tired sealant ahead of a health and safety audit, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In a smaller place like Tankerness, commercial jobs are more likely to be a hotel, guest house, school, surgery or community hall than an office block. All of them have washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints that need looking after.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

When something else is needed
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:

What we do, step by step
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a few hours per area, with larger sites planned over several visits, depending on how much there is to do. Outdoor work around Tankerness depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors is not affected.
- We start with a site walk to agree the rooms and the timing.
- Each area is protected and the old sealant cut out completely.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Tankerness questions
Is Tankerness in your area for commercial sealant?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Tankerness is part of that. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Is Tankerness within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, including the islands, where work is planned around ferry crossings. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Can you start early or work out of hours?
It can be arranged. The hours are agreed before work starts.
Does commercial work come with a guarantee?
Yes, for 12 months. Mild cleaning and good ventilation help it last.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you work for letting agents and landlords?
Yes. A planned programme across a portfolio keeps things simple.
When to call us in Tankerness
Commercial bathrooms get far more use than domestic ones, and daily cleaning with strong chemicals wears sealant down. So the silicone ages faster than it would at home.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Split sealant where wet room floors meet walls
- Joints that need doing before an inspection or audit
- Mouldy bathrooms flagged at a tenancy check
- Shower leaks reaching the floor below
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Andrew's Burial-Ground, any kitchen and washrooms need the same sealant care as any other building.
Questions to ask before you book
- How long to leave it before use
- Who turns up on the day
- What happens if the job turns out different
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
Landlords, agents and businesses in Tankerness
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
