Bathrooms and kitchens in Huntingtower
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. 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.
If you let a flat or house near Perth station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Do not wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Clean sealant with mild products only
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
Where we have pointed out another fault, have it put right, because the new sealant can’t hold back a problem underneath.
If a joint has failed more than once, stop resealing it. Have someone find out why, otherwise the next attempt will fail too.
Common questions in Huntingtower
Can you do remedial sealant in Huntingtower?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Huntingtower is part of that. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Is Huntingtower within the area you cover?
Yes, Huntingtower is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured for every job we do.
Can you take off two layers of silicone?
Yes. Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off, then the joint is resealed once.
What should I tell you?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we agree the colour with you before work begins.
Can you fix a reseal that hasn’t worked?
Yes. All the sealant comes out, we find out why it failed, and the joint is resealed properly.
Do you need remedial sealant in Huntingtower?
All sealant wears out eventually. Over the years it shrinks, hardens and gets colonised by mould, faster where ventilation is poor. At that point it has to come out.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- A second bead peeling off the first
If you look after a building such as Perth High School, 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.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- What insurance they hold
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
How the visit works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, depending on how much there is to do. Outside jobs in Huntingtower need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
Preparing for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
