Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in A' Chrìon Làraich
Water on the floor doesn’t always mean failed silicone. A cracked tray, a failed shower valve or a leaking waste can look just the same. When the fault is elsewhere, we say so instead of resealing for the sake of it. We work on failed movement joints, shrunken worktop sealant and botched or over-sealed joints, and the jobs we see most are gaps opening along the back of the worktop and smears and lumps from a botched reseal.
For a place like A' Chrìon Làraich, the job is the same as anywhere: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. The journey and access are simply planned in advance.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Someone sealed over the old bead. Can you fix it?

Can I do it myself?

Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Find out why the sealant failed first
- Don’t point over movement joints
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Do not add new sealant on top of old
Leave the new joint to cure fully before it gets wet or moves: follow the cure time we give you.
Signs to act on: sealant lifting at the ends, a second bead visible on top of the first, black mould under the silicone, or stains below a bathroom. Any of them means it’s time for remedial work.
Surface by surface
Windows & doors
Some leaks around windows come from the wall or the window itself. We check the joint and tell you if it looks to be something else.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould can sit behind the silicone, not just in it. Once it’s all removed, the joint is treated so the new sealant starts clean.
What affects the quote in A' Chrìon Làraich
You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It’s based on:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Any working-time requirements on site
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- If someone has resealed it before
- Where the property is

Do you need remedial sealant in A' Chrìon Làraich?
Silicone only bonds to surfaces that are clean and dry. Residue, moisture or dust left in the joint weaken the bond, and the joint starts to come away early.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
Rented homes near Crianlarich station change hands often, and failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Whether they’re fully insured
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- How long to leave it before use
What remedial sealant looks like in A' Chrìon Làraich
Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
How it works
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. Most jobs take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Outdoor work around A' Chrìon Làraich depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We protect the surfaces around the joint.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.
