Workplaces and buildings in West Craigs
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like West Craigs, 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. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, so landlords with several properties often need sealant work across them all.
Letting a property close to Edinburgh Gateway station? Then several rental properties can be resealed on one programme. Managing a site like Craigmount High School? Then sealant in washrooms, kitchens and changing areas can be renewed around term times or opening hours.

What happens on the day
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it normally takes a morning for a small washroom, and a planned programme for bigger sites. Many homes in Scotland’s cities are tenement flats, reached through a shared close and up a common stair. For a job in West Craigs, tell us the floor, how the door entry system works and where we can park nearby.
- 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.
- New sealant suited to each area is applied and tooled.
- We check every room and give its cure time for housekeeping.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about any water getting in

Advice
Common questions in West Craigs
Do you cover West Craigs for commercial sealant?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and West Craigs is part of that. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in West Craigs?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few photos.
Can you send RAMS and insurance details for our site?
We are fully insured, and we’ll go through your site’s requirements with you. Send over your requirements and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Do you work for letting agents and landlords?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and the rooms, and we’ll quote for the lot.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will tell you what we are using.
Where do you work from?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
What affects the quote in West Craigs
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether the work is at height
- Any mould that needs treating
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- How we’d reach the joints
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- The address or postcode of the job
- The rough size of the job
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we will talk you through the work.
Leave it or put it right?
A quick bead over the old sealant might get a room back in use today, but silicone does not bond to silicone, so it lifts. One proper reseal beats several quick ones. For landlords in West Craigs, damp and leaks can be a Repairing Standard issue, so it’s worth fixing failed sealant before a tenant reports it.
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.
Why us?
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Fire risk assessments or certification
- A shower tray, bath or basin that is cracked or broken
- Extraction that isn’t working, which needs an electrician or ventilation contractor
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Office washrooms & kitchens
- Retail & leisure sites
- Welfare facilities
- Hotel bathrooms
- Rental portfolios
- Student & care accommodation
DIY sealant or a professional job?
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. All the old material has to come out first.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Ask cleaners to go gently on the silicone
- Plan resealing around quiet periods
- Give housekeeping the cure time for every room
- Leave squeegees in busy showers
Extract fans need to work. Where a room has no window, the fan is what dries it out, and mould comes back faster without it.
Mould in shared washrooms gets noticed and talked about. Left long enough, it spreads through the bead, and only replacement fixes it.
