Remedial sealant in Broomhill
Removing failed sealant is the hardest part of the job. We cut out every layer, clear the residue and degrease the surfaces, without scratching tiles, trays or frames. New sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. If you have kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop and black mould underneath the bead, we can put it right.
Stone-built tenements are part of every Scottish city, alongside suburban houses and modern blocks. With flats above and below, a leak from a tired seal can reach the flat underneath.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after we have gone.

Surface by surface
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints often have grease and cleaning residue deep in them, so cleaning takes longer than in a bathroom.
Over-sealed & botched joints
Thick, smeared sealant looks messy and hides problems. Taking it back shows what’s underneath, and then we reseal it neatly.
What affects the quote in Broomhill
You will get a clear quote before any work starts. It’s based on:
- The number and length of the joints
- How many areas need sealing
- Whether the work is at height
- The old material and how stubborn it is
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- If someone has resealed it before
- The rough size of the job
- A few photos by email, if you can
- The type of property
To get a quote, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.

Remedial sealant around Broomhill
Broomhill is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Broomhill has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
Schools such as Albyn School are buildings too, and washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. If you live in an older home near Ruthrieston West Church And Hall, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Rented homes near Aberdeen station change hands often, and a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

How the visit works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. In a Scottish city, a lot of jobs are in tenement flats, up a common stair from a shared close. For a job in Broomhill, tell us the floor, how the door entry system works and where we can park nearby.
- First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
- Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
- The joint is cleaned, treated for mould and left to dry.
- Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
How to prepare
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Advice
Your questions about remedial sealant in Broomhill
I’m in a tenement in Broomhill. Could worn sealant affect the flat downstairs?
Yes, it can. In a tenement, water that gets past failed sealant or cracked grout can run under the bath or tray and through to the ceiling below. Replacing tired sealant early is the simplest way to avoid that.
Do you work for landlords with property near Aberdeen station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes, with care. The old bead is cut and lifted with tools that suit the surface, and the residue is cleaned away. We point out any damage that’s already there.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What if the leak is not the sealant?
We’ll tell you. If it’s a cracked tray, a failed valve or a leaking waste, resealing will not fix it, and we will not reseal for the sake of it.
Can you take off two layers of silicone?
Yes. We remove every layer; over-sealing fails because silicone will not bond to silicone.
Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?
Yes. First we check whether the leak is the sealant at all, then strip and reseal the joints.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Act on a lifting corner right away
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
If we have found a cause, such as a loose tray or a leaking waste, get it fixed, because the new sealant cannot hold back a problem underneath.
Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Each use pushes more water behind the bead, into whatever is behind or below. Sorting it early limits the damage.
