Landlords, agents and businesses in Skye of Curr
We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Common problems we fix in Skye of Curr
Sealant applied onto damp surfaces doesn’t bond well. On a busy site, joints aren’t always given time to dry first.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
For jobs in and around Skye of Curr, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: 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’s fine. We cut it out and start again.

Why it’s worth doing now in Skye of Curr
Sealant done properly at handover means fewer callbacks. Snagging visits for failed sealant cost time on every plot, and they’re avoidable with good preparation. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

What sealant work cannot fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
- Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
If you’re not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
