Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Carsie

A joint that keeps failing generally has a reason. Movement, the wrong product or a leak from somewhere else will defeat even a perfect bead. We look for the cause before we reseal. If you are dealing with beads that never stuck properly and movement joints that have split or pulled away, we can help.

Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are generally the first signs.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

What we do, step by step

When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. The work generally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Outdoor work around Carsie depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.

  1. First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
  2. Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
  3. We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
  5. We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.

Before we arrive

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Advice

How the job changes by surface

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Mould can sit behind the silicone, not just in it. Once it’s all removed, the joint is treated.

Windows & doors

A frame that keeps leaking may not be the mastic. If the frame joint isn’t the cause, we’ll say so.

What we’re called out for in Carsie

One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. Silicone does not bond to silicone, so the top layer lifts and water and mould collect between the two.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
  • Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
  • Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
  • A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed

Around Carsie, as everywhere, remedial sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it.

What your quote should include

  • Are they insured?
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • Who turns up on the day
  • When the joint can take water or movement

How to choose a mastic man

Remedial sealant around Carsie

Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and 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. 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.

If you look after a building such as Blairgowrie High School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

What sealant work cannot fix

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • Movement from fittings that aren’t supported
  • A tray or bath that’s cracked

If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think.

What we seal

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

Should I try it myself first?

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
