FAQs for Aird

Will you come out to Aird?

Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, islands included, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Is remedial sealant in Aird guaranteed?

All our work, in Aird and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.

Where do you work from?

Our base is Crawley. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.

How long does remedial resealing take?

Longer than a simple reseal, because every layer has to come out. Most jobs take a few hours, and we confirm the time with your quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. More than one area can go on one quote.

Can tenants book the work?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.

Can I choose the sealant colour?

In most cases you can choose. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in.

Can you remove sealant that’s been put over old sealant?

Yes. We cut out all the layers and clean off the film, then the joint is resealed once.

Remedial sealant in Aird

A movement joint stops working when its sealant splits or sets hard. We cut out the failed sealant and set the depth with backing, then a flexible sealant matched to the movement goes in. We work on expansion joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant, and common reasons people get in touch are wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones and caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area.

Bathrooms in smaller places like Aird work just as hard as those in the cities. Limescale is less of a problem with Scotland’s generally soft water, but mould still takes hold in damp sealant and grout.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Do you need remedial sealant in Aird?

One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. New silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so the new layer peels, and damp and mould settle between them.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
  • Movement joints that have split or pulled away
  • Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
  • Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Aird Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

10 questions to ask before you book

How it works

We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Around Aird, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.

  1. We start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
  2. Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
  3. We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
  4. We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
  5. Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.

How to prepare

  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Landlords, agents and businesses in Aird

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

How to look after the new joints

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean sealant with mild products only
  • Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
  • Check trays and worktops don’t move
  • Do not add new sealant on top of old

If we have found a cause, such as a loose tray or a leaking waste, get it fixed, or the new joint may fail again.

Do not keep resealing the same joint. Get the cause found first, or the next bead will go the same way.

Why deal with it now?

Remedial work takes longer than a straight reseal, but not by much: it takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. Around Aird, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are unsure, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

What affects the quote in Aird

For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:

  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • How much there is to do
  • Access and height
  • Mould in or behind the old joints

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

What we need to know

When you call or email, it’s useful to know:

  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • The problem you’ve noticed

Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll take it from there.

Can I do it myself?

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

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.
