Remedial sealant in Arinagour

With more than 20 years’ experience, our applicators have seen most of the ways sealant can fail. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and every remedial job comes with a 12-month guarantee. If you have smears and lumps from a botched reseal and sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared, we can help, whatever the surface.

Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are usually the first signs.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Should I try it myself first?

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.

If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

When something else is needed

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
  • Movement from fittings that are not supported
  • A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe

If you’re not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer.

What we seal

  • Expansion joints
  • Leaking tray & enclosure joints
  • Failed movement joints
  • Shrunken worktop sealant
  • Botched or over-sealed joints
  • Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Remedial sealant in Arinagour: local notes

Arinagour is within about 1 mile of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. 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 doesn’t dry out.

Around Arinagour, as everywhere, remedial sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Arinagour is in Argyll and Bute. Jobs in Arinagour get the same care as everywhere else we work: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee. We cover 118 towns and villages across Argyll and Bute, from the larger towns to small villages.

Your questions about remedial sealant in Arinagour

What guarantee comes with remedial sealant in Arinagour?

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

Do you cover Arinagour for remedial sealant?

Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Arinagour is part of that. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.

When is the sealant fully cured?

Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint.

What information do you need?

Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?

Yes. We take our time over removal, especially on acrylic, enamel and uPVC.

Where do you work from?

We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Arinagour, along with the rest of our area.

Can failed expansion joints be resealed?

Yes. Failed movement joints are cut out and resealed with backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement.

Different surfaces, different methods

Over-sealed & botched joints

A botched joint can hide two or three layers of sealant, and silicone residue is cleaned off the tiles too. Only a clean joint will take a new bead.

Worktops & kitchens

Old kitchen sealant pulls back from the wall over time. It’s cut out, degreased and resealed colour-matched to the worktop.

For landlords and businesses

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can go on one quote.

Do you need remedial sealant in Arinagour?

Joints that move need sealant that can stretch. A bath that flexes, a tray that rocks or a building joint that opens and closes will split a rigid or thin bead.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
  • A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
  • Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
  • Dark patches showing through the sealant

If you live in an older home near Coll Parish Church (Church Of Scotland), walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Questions to ask before booking

  • How much experience the applicator has
  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why
  • The length of the guarantee
  • When the joint can take water or movement

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, 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. Somewhere like Arinagour may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.

  1. We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
  2. We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
  3. Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
  5. Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Why act early in Arinagour

Repeat failures have a cause. Taking time to find the cause, whether it’s movement, a leak or the wrong product, is what stops it happening again. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.

Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
