Remedial sealant in Blairmore, done properly

Not every leak is a sealant leak. A cracked tray, a failed shower valve or a leaking waste can look just the same. If that is what we find, we’ll tell you rather than reseal something that won’t fix it. We work on leaking tray & enclosure joints, expansion joints and failed movement joints, and the jobs we see most are over-sealed joints coming away and sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared.

A bathroom in a place like Blairmore gets the same daily wear as one in a city flat. Generally soft Scottish water means less limescale, but steam still lets mould into sealant and grout.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, some problems need a different trade:

  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
  • Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler
  • A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe

Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.

  • Mouldy bath & shower sealant

How the job changes by surface

Leaking trays & enclosures

Where the joints are the problem, every bead is stripped and resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tray edges and screen profiles included.

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Mould that has grown into silicone doesn’t clean out for good. All of it comes out, and the joint is treated and dried before anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in.

Blairmore homes and their sealant

Blairmore 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. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black.

Rented homes near Gourock station change hands often, and a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty. In the older streets around Strone Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Aftercare tips

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Don’t add new sealant on top of old
  • Don’t wait for a small gap to become a leak
  • Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
  • Find out why the sealant failed first

Watch the joint over the first few weeks, especially if movement was the problem. If anything changes, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

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

What happens on the day

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere like Blairmore may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.

  1. The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
  2. Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
  3. Mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
  5. The joint is tooled and you’re told about anything else we found.

Before we arrive

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Leave it or put it right?

Spraying mould remover on a sealed-over joint does not reach what’s underneath. The layers have to come out, and the joint treated and dried before resealing. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

What you get with us

  • White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
  • A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
  • Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants

Your questions about remedial sealant in Blairmore

Can you do remedial sealant in Blairmore?

Yes, Blairmore is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.

Do you cover smaller places like Blairmore?

Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

How do I get a quote for remedial sealant in Blairmore?

There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.

Should I try DIY first?

You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.

Can tenants book the work?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

Do the sealants smell?

It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.

How long before the joint can be used?

Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We will give you the cure time for the product we used.

What affects the cost of remedial sealant

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • Access and height
  • The number of rooms or windows

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
