How we handle remedial sealant in Gott
Two decades of sealant work means we recognise most failures quickly. We are ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and every remedial job comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are often asked to deal with products that weren’t meant for the joint and a second bead peeling off the first, on expansion joints, botched or over-sealed joints and leaking tray & enclosure joints.
Being further from a city does not change the work: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

How we quote for remedial sealant
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Any mould that needs treating
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
Helping us quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If someone has resealed it before
- The address or postcode of the job
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will take it from there.
What sealant work cannot fix
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A tray or bath that’s cracked
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
- A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
If you are not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Expansion joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints

FAQs for Gott
Can you do remedial sealant in Gott?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Gott is part of that. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Gott within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, including the islands, where work is planned around ferry crossings. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
In most cases you can choose. We will tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before any work starts.
My shower still leaks after a reseal. Can you sort it?
Yes. First we check whether the leak is the sealant at all, then the joints are stripped and resealed.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes, we do. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Act on a lifting corner straight away
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Do not point over movement joints
Keep the room ventilated: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.
Leave it or put it right?
A failed seal rarely means a new bathroom. If the bath, tray and tiles are sound, remedial resealing generally puts it right. Where something else has failed, you will hear it from us. Around Gott, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What remedial sealant looks like in Gott
Gott is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in.
In and around Gott, as anywhere, good remedial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. Whether the job is in Gott itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.
Gott is in the Shetland Islands. Homes, rented property, offices and hotels in Gott is covered for remedial sealant, old or new, large or small. Every job comes with our one-year guarantee. Our the Shetland Islands coverage runs to 63 places, Gott among them.

Different surfaces, different methods
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.
Movement & expansion joints
Movement joints in floors, walls and façades need a flexible sealant set to the right depth. Failed sealant is cut out, backing rod or tape is fitted and the joint resealed.
What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Somewhere like Gott may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
How to prepare
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Tell us about any water getting in
