Bathroom resealing across KY7: what to expect
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, finished smooth so water drains away rather than collecting. Typical jobs include leaking joints on a shower screen and leaks into the floor or ceiling below, on kitchen worktops & upstands, basins & vanity units and sinks & splashbacks.
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- 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.

The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

Bathroom resealing across KY7: local notes
From Glenrothes, Collydean and Markinch to its smaller places, homes across KY7 have bathrooms and kitchens of every age. Family bathrooms, rented flats and hotel en suites all need their sealant and grout renewing in time.
We work across all of Scotland, from the cities to the islands, and KY7 is part of that. Longer journeys are planned in advance, and outdoor work around the weather.
Glenrothes: Homes close to St Columba's Parish Church include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. If you let a flat or house near Markinch station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.
Why act early?
A quick bead over the top of the old one might look better for a while, but it will not bond. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it.

Signs you need bathroom resealing
No sealant lasts indefinitely. Every shower, every splash and every wipe with a cleaner slowly wear it down, and how long it lasts comes down to use, cleaning and ventilation.
The most common problems we see are:
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
DIY versus a professional finish
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.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll quote.
Landlords and letting agents in KY7 can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

FAQs for KY7
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we are fully insured.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes, often alongside a bathroom. Where it’s needed by the sink, we use a food-safe sealant.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we’re fully insured.
What colours of sealant can you use?
There’s a choice: white, clear and colours to suit tiles and worktops. We will talk it through when we quote.
