About our remedial sealant in Kinmundy
Remedial work is what we do when sealant has failed or been done badly. Silicone laid over silicone, smears across tiles, the wrong product in a moving joint or mould trapped underneath all have to come out. We work on expansion joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and leaking tray & enclosure joints, and people most often call us about leaks that keep coming back after resealing and sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface.
For a place like Kinmundy, the job is the same as anywhere: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Quotes for remedial sealant in Kinmundy
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The number of rooms or windows
- When we can work, for business premises
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Mould in or behind the old joints
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- The rough size of the job
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- If someone has resealed it before
- How we’d reach the joints
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved and send you a clear quote.
Different surfaces, different methods
Windows & doors
Some leaks around windows come from the wall or the window itself. If the frame joint is not the cause, we’ll say so.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Black mould inside the bead won’t scrub out. The sealant is cut out completely, the joint treated with a mould remover and dried before anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in.
The process
On the day, we start by going over the job with you. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work usually takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Outdoor work around Kinmundy depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors is not affected.
- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

When to call us in Kinmundy
Water from somewhere else can ruin a good seal. A slow leak behind the tiles soaks the joint from the back, and the sealant lifts or goes mouldy from underneath.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
In the older streets around Newmachar Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Kinmundy
Aberdeen, the Granite City, has plenty of granite tenements, where, as in any flat, a failed seal can reach the flat below. 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.
If you let a flat or house near Dyce station, a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty. Schools such as New Machar Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

FAQs for Kinmundy
Do you work for landlords with property near Dyce station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Is Kinmundy within the area you cover?
Yes. Kinmundy is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we are fully insured.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Someone sealed over the old bead. Can you fix it?
Yes. Stripping layered sealant takes longer than a normal reseal, but it’s the only way the new joint will last.
What does remedial sealant cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
- Clean sealant with mild products only
- Don’t add new sealant on top of old
- Do not wait for a small gap to become a leak
If we have found a cause, such as a loose tray or a leaking waste, get it fixed, or the new joint may fail again.
Mould trapped under over-sealed joints spreads unseen. When it finally shows, the whole bead needs to come out.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Landlords and letting agents in Kinmundy can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
If you manage several properties in or around Kinmundy, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
Leave it or put it right?
Remedial work takes longer than a straight reseal, but not by much: the work takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Compared with chasing the same leak every few months, it’s time well spent. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts.
