Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Innis nan Lìon

Remedial work is what we do when sealant has failed or been done badly. New sealant over old, smeared beads, unsuitable products and hidden mould all need stripping out. We work on shrunken worktop sealant, mouldy bath & shower sealant and failed movement joints, and common reasons people get in touch are repeat leaks from the same joint and black mould underneath the bead.

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.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Innis nan Lìon

Is Innis nan Lìon within the area you cover?

Yes. Innis nan Lìon is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Can you do remedial sealant in Innis nan Lìon?

Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Innis nan Lìon is part of that. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.

Can landlords and businesses book you?

Yes, regularly. We can quote for several properties at once, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.

What do you need from me for a quote?

Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient.

Does someone need to be in?

That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.

Can failed expansion joints be resealed?

Yes. Backing sets the depth and stops the sealant sticking to the back.

How long will it take to strip and reseal the joint?

That depends on how many layers there are and how many joints. We’ll tell you before we start.

How we quote for remedial sealant

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:

  • The product the joint needs
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • The size of the job

Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.

What to tell us for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:

  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • The type of property
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.

Keeping the joints in good condition

How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
  • Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
  • Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
  • Clean sealant with mild products only

Leave the new joint to cure fully before it gets wet or moves: follow the cure time we give you.

A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.

How the job changes by surface

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Mould that has grown into silicone does not clean out for good. The sealant is cut out completely, the joint treated with a mould remover and dried ahead of a new anti-fungal bead.

Over-sealed & botched joints

Botched joints sometimes have damaged edges from earlier scraping. We take care not to make it worse, and tell you about any damage we find.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Innis nan Lìon

In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in. 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.

Around Innis nan Lìon, as everywhere, remedial sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it.

The process

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. It generally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Around Innis nan Lìon, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.

  1. The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Common reasons people contact us are:

  • Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
  • Black mould underneath the bead
  • Repeat leaks from the same joint
  • Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted

For jobs in and around Innis nan Lìon, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.
