Kinross Remedial Sealant
Professional remedial sealant in and around Kinross, with every bit of old sealant taken out first and a one-year guarantee.
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Remedial sealant in Kinross, done properly
Not every leak is a sealant leak. A cracked tray, a failed shower valve or a leaking waste can look just the same. When the fault is elsewhere, we say so instead of resealing for the sake of it. If you have a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed and sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface, we can help.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses. Older buildings can move a little, and that shows first in cracked grout and split sealant.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Why deal with it now?
DIY removal often leaves scratches and a film of residue, and any film left behind stops new sealant sticking. Careful stripping is where most of our time goes. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

Kinross homes and their sealant
Kinross has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that doesn’t dry out.
If you live in an older home near St Paul's Episcopal Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

When something else is needed
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
- Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If you are not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer.

How it works
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out for a typical job. Around Kinross, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.
- First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
- Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
- The joint is cleaned, treated for mould and left to dry.
- Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Which products do you use?

Will there be a smell?

Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
When to call us in Kinross
Even good sealant ages. Over the years it shrinks, hardens and gets colonised by mould. Then the only fix is removal and a new bead.
Look out for any of the following:
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Black mould underneath the bead
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
Schools such as Kinross High School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
What your quote should include
- What product goes in the joint
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What happens if the job turns out different
- How long to leave it before use
How the job changes by surface
Windows & doors
Wrong-coloured or messy mastic can be replaced for appearance too, in a colour that suits the frame.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould can sit behind the silicone, not just in it. Once it’s all removed, the joint is treated.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
