FAQs for Aird Tong
Is there a guarantee on remedial sealant in Aird Tong?

Is Aird Tong within the area you cover?
Yes, Aird Tong is covered. We work across all of Scotland, islands included, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
How long does remedial resealing take?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we will quote it together.
Can you reseal a split movement joint?
Yes. If a joint has been filled with mortar or rigid filler, we rake it out where possible, then the joint is sealed properly.
How do I get a quote for remedial sealant in Aird Tong?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before any work starts.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Aird Tong and the rest of Na h-Eileanan Siar.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will explain our choice.
Remedial sealant in Aird Tong, done properly
Removing failed sealant is the hardest part of the job. We cut out every layer, clear the residue and degrease the surfaces, without scratching tiles, trays or frames. Only then can new sealant bond. We work on botched or over-sealed joints, expansion joints and leaking tray & enclosure joints, and common reasons people get in touch are thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles and decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses. Older buildings can move a little, and that shows first in cracked grout and split sealant.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Leave it or put it right?
It’s easy to scratch acrylic, enamel or an uPVC frame cutting out old sealant, and the residue left behind stops the next bead bonding. Careful stripping is where most of our time goes. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and give you a clear quote before we start.

What remedial sealant looks like in Aird Tong
Aird Tong is within about 1 mile of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that does not dry out.
In and around Aird Tong, as anywhere, good remedial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Common problems we fix in Aird Tong
A lot of failed joints have been sealed over rather than replaced. Silicone doesn’t bond to silicone, so the new layer peels, and damp and mould settle between them.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- Black mould underneath the bead
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
Whether the job is in Aird Tong itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
Keep the room ventilated: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.
Mould trapped under over-sealed joints spreads unseen. By the time it shows through, the joint is well past saving.
