Leaking trays & enclosures

Over-sealed & botched joints
Botched joints sometimes have damaged edges from earlier scraping. We take care not to make it worse, and point out any existing damage.
Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Bridge of Tilt
If a joint fails again and again, something is causing it. A tray that moves, a worktop that isn’t fixed, the wrong sealant or water getting in elsewhere will beat any new bead. We look for the cause before we reseal. We work on failed movement joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and expansion joints, and people most often call us about leaks that keep coming back after resealing and gaps opening along the back of the worktop.
Bathrooms in smaller places like Bridge of Tilt work just as hard as those in the cities. Generally soft Scottish water means less limescale, but steam still lets mould into sealant and grout.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Why it’s worth doing now in Bridge of Tilt
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. 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.

Bridge of Tilt: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Blair Atholl station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover Bridge of Tilt for remedial sealant?
Yes, Bridge of Tilt is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.
Will it make 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.
How long will it take to strip and reseal the joint?
A little longer than a standard reseal. Most jobs take a few hours.
Is remedial work guaranteed?
Yes, for 12 months. Where we’ve flagged another fault, it needs fixing for the joint to last.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Will there be a smell?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

What we do, step by step

For a place like Bridge of Tilt, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Act on a lifting corner straight away
If the joint ever needs renewing, have it cut out, not sealed over. Over-sealing is how many remedial jobs start, so the old bead should always come out first.
Mould under a second layer of sealant keeps growing out of sight. By the time it shows through, the joint is well past saving.

Remedial sealant in Bridge of Tilt: local notes
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. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. For landlords with property near Blair Atholl station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
