Can I do it myself?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Remedial sealant in Bonkle, done properly
If a joint has been resealed and is leaking again, it’s worth a proper look. It helps to have photos when you drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk, and say how long ago it was last done. We work on botched or over-sealed joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and failed movement joints, and people most often call us about wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones and leaks that keep coming back after resealing.
Being further from a city doesn’t change the work: everything old is cut out, the joints are cleaned and dried, and new sealant or grout goes in. The journey and access are simply planned in advance.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

When it is not the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- A tray or bath that is cracked
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
- Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Botched or over-sealed joints

What the job involves on each surface
Leaking trays & enclosures
When failed joints are the cause, they’re all cut out and renewed, tray edges and screen profiles included.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould that has grown into silicone does not clean out for good. The sealant is cut out completely, the joint treated with a mould remover and dried before anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in.

Advice
Bonkle homes and their sealant
Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Coltness High School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Letting a property close to Hartwood station? Then botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.
