Remedial sealant in Inveraldie
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 have to come out. We’re often asked to deal with wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones and torn expansion joints, on botched or over-sealed joints, shrunken worktop sealant and mouldy bath & shower sealant.
In and around a place like Inveraldie, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Older buildings can move a little, and that shows first in cracked grout and split sealant.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

What sealant work can’t fix

- Movement from fittings that aren’t supported
- A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What affects the quote in Inveraldie
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of sealant required
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Whether the work is at height
- Any mould that needs treating
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are unsure, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- How we’d reach the joints
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Whether it has been sealed before
- A few pictures by email, if you can
Getting a quote is simple: let us know what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will take it from there.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Check trays and worktops don’t move
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Clean sealant with mild products only
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
If the joint ever needs renewing, have it cut out, not sealed over. New silicone does not bond to old, so the old bead should always come out first.
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.

What else we do in Inveraldie
Inveraldie homes and their sealant
Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and 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. Dundee has plenty of sandstone tenements, where a failed bath or shower seal can reach the flat below.
If you let a flat or house near Dundee station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Braeview Academy, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Advice
Common questions in Inveraldie
Can you do remedial sealant in Inveraldie?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Inveraldie is part of that. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Is Inveraldie within the area you cover?
Yes, Inveraldie is covered. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Do you fix expansion and movement joints?
Yes. If a joint has been filled with mortar or rigid filler, we rake it out where possible, then the joint is sealed properly.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
How long before the joint can be used?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We will give you the cure time for the product we used.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes. We take our time over removal, especially on acrylic, enamel and uPVC.
Landlord and commercial work in Inveraldie
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Different surfaces, different methods
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints often have grease and cleaning residue deep in them, so cleaning takes longer than in a bathroom.
Windows & doors
Failed frame mastic is often hard, cracked and in several layers. We remove it all and clean back to sound surfaces.
What we’re called out for in Inveraldie
Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Soap film, dust, damp or old residue stop it gripping, so it starts lifting sooner than it should.
The most common problems we see are:
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
Homes close to Tealing Parish Church And Churchyard include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
