Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Tarbrax is part of that. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

Yes. With more than 20 years’ experience and over 2,847 projects behind us, we plan big jobs so the building keeps running.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Can the hotel stay open while you work?
Usually, yes. The order and timing are agreed with your team, and you’ll know when each room can be used.
Can you start early or work out of hours?
Out-of-hours work and early starts can be arranged. Let us know your hours when you get in touch.
What we do, step by step
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours for a single washroom, longer for a whole building. Around Tarbrax, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- Tell us the rooms, hours and site rules, and we will plan the programme.
- Tell us what paperwork your site needs, and we confirm what we can supply before any work starts.
- In each room, the old bead comes out and the joint is cleaned and treated.
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes into wet areas, with suitable sealant elsewhere.
- Each finished area is checked with you and given a cure time.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Common problems we fix in Tarbrax
In office kitchens and tea points, joints are wet and wiped all day, and grease and cleaning sprays break down sealant. Worktop and sink joints are often the first to go.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Joints that need doing before an inspection or audit
- Failed floor-level joints in accessible wet rooms
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and stained
- Water marks on ceilings under bathrooms
For buildings such as Tarbrax Church, halls and community kitchens see heavy use, and their sealant shows it.
Before you book anyone
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- How long the guarantee is
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Is VAT in the price?
What affects the cost of commercial sealant
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- The product the joint needs
- Access and height
- How many areas need sealing
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What to tell us for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- The rough size of the job
- The type of property
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Photos by email, if that is easy
To get a quote, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the location and a short description of the problem. You will have a clear quote before work begins.
What the job involves on each surface
Student & care accommodation
Many accommodation blocks have rows of similar en suites. We agree a programme and work through them steadily.
Rental portfolios
An empty property is easy to reseal, so the next tenant moves in to clean, sound joints.
Why it’s worth doing now in Tarbrax
Patching the worst rooms as complaints come in is hard to manage. A planned programme works through every room, keeping disruption down and costs clear. In an older home around Tarbrax, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
Why book with us
- You choose the colour before work begins
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Every job guaranteed for a year
- We leave the area clean and tidy

Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Plan resealing around quiet periods
- Leave squeegees in busy showers
- Keep a record of which rooms were resealed and when
- Get split or lifting joints looked at early
Keep the extraction running and maintained. In internal bathrooms, a weak or broken fan lets moisture linger, and mould comes back faster without it.
Signs to look for: mould, splits, peeling corners or water marks downstairs. When you see them, it’s time to plan a reseal.
Should I try it myself first?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
