Remedial sealant & repairs in Craigellachie, Moray
Removing failed, mouldy or leaking sealant and putting it right for householders, landlords and businesses in Craigellachie. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
Why act early in Craigellachie
Mould under a bead can’t be reached by cleaning. Removal is the only way to get at it, so the joint can be treated and resealed. 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.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
Why Craigellachie clients choose us
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
- We leave the area clean and tidy

Remedial sealant in Craigellachie
The wrong product in the wrong joint fails however neatly it’s applied. Out it comes, and in goes a sealant suited to the job. We are often asked to deal with dark patches showing through the sealant and decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower, across botched or over-sealed joints, failed movement joints and leaking tray & enclosure joints.
Bathrooms in smaller places like Craigellachie 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.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

How the job changes by surface
Worktops & kitchens
Old kitchen sealant pulls back from the wall over time. We strip it, degrease the joint and reseal in a colour to suit.
Leaking trays & enclosures
If the tray is cracked, or the leak is from the valve or waste, sealant will not fix it. We say so rather than reseal.
Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
How the visit works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on. The job normally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Somewhere like Craigellachie may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- We start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- The joint is cleaned, treated for mould and left to dry.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Tell us about any water getting in
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Craigellachie: your questions answered
Is there a guarantee on remedial sealant in Craigellachie?
All our work, in Craigellachie and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Is Craigellachie in your area for remedial sealant?
Yes, Craigellachie is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
What if the leak is not the sealant?
We check for that before we reseal. If we find the leak is elsewhere, we tell you before going further.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.

We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details and send photos if you have them.
What remedial sealant looks like in Craigellachie
Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. 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 Of Macallan And Burial Ground With Elchies Mausoleum, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. In and around Craigellachie, as anywhere, good remedial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
