Remedial sealant in Blackdog, done properly

Bathrooms in smaller places like Blackdog 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.

Why act early in Blackdog

In a place like Blackdog, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.

Remedial sealant around Blackdog

Blackdog is close to 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. Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that doesn’t dry out.

If you let a flat or house near Dyce station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

What sealant work can’t fix

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first
  • Movement from fittings that aren’t supported
  • Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler

If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think.

What we seal

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

Different surfaces, different methods

Movement & expansion joints

Some movement joints have been filled with mortar or grout. Where it can be raked out, we replace it with flexible sealant.

Worktops & kitchens

Shrunken worktop sealant leaves a gap that lets water into the back edge. It’s cut out, degreased and resealed in a colour to suit.

Questions from Blackdog

I let a flat near Dyce station. Can you help?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.

Can you do remedial sealant in Blackdog?

Yes, Blackdog is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.

Do I need to be at home?

It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.

Which products do you use?

The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.

Will there be a smell?

Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

How long before the joint can be used?

Cure times vary by product. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.

Where are you based?

Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

What we are called out for in Blackdog

Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Soap film, dust, damp or old residue stop it gripping, and the joint starts to come away early.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
  • Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
  • Products that weren’t meant for the joint
  • Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface

In and around Blackdog, as anywhere, good remedial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What to look for in a quote

  • The length of the guarantee
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • What the cure time is

The job generally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Around Blackdog, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.

  1. We protect the surfaces around the joint.
  2. The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
  3. We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
  4. Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
  5. We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
