Bathroom resealing in AB37: how it works
A reseal only lasts if the joint is properly prepared. The old sealant is removed to the last smear, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. We work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are two layers of silicone, both failing and splits where the tray meets the wall.
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a couple of hours for a single bath or shower, and we explain the cure time before we leave.
- We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
What you’ll pay
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Where we work in AB37
Our bathroom resealing work across AB37 covers homes, rentals and businesses, in Tomintoul and well beyond. The method is the same everywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.
Homes in Scotland come with their own details: harled walls, sash and case windows and, in the larger towns and cities, tenements. We work across Scotland, including AB37.
Tomintoul: Whether the job is in Tomintoul itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish. Around Tomintoul, as everywhere, bathroom resealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the 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.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
How we quote for bathroom resealing
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- When we can work, for business premises
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether the work is at height
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts.
What to tell us for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Roughly how big the job is
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Landlord and commercial work in AB37
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
What happens if it’s left?
Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Water that gets behind a bath soaks into the floor, the panel and sometimes the ceiling below, turning a small job into a building repair.
What your quote should include
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What product goes in the joint
- Whether they’re fully insured
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
Don’t stand bottles along the bead, because they trap water against the silicone. A quick squeegee after showering keeps water from sitting on the joint.
A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
AB37: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes, for 12 months. Looking after the joint as we suggest helps it last.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.
