Common questions in Kirkton of Craig
Do you cover Kirkton of Craig for remedial sealant?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Kirkton of Craig is part of that. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you cover smaller places like Kirkton of Craig?
Yes, Kirkton of Craig is covered. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
What does remedial sealant cost?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Can you fix a reseal that hasn’t worked?
Yes. There’s normally a reason: sealant over sealant, movement or another leak, so we find that first.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we’ll agree it with you first.
Do you guarantee remedial jobs?
Yes, for 12 months. If we’ve pointed out another problem, getting it fixed helps the new joint last.
Someone sealed over the old bead. Can you fix it?
Yes. It’s slower than a standard reseal, because every layer has to come out cleanly, but it’s the only way the new joint will last.
How it works
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Outdoor work around Kirkton of Craig depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We protect the surfaces around the joint.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward 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 the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
When it isn’t the sealant
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler
- A tray or bath that is cracked
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think before booking.
Where we work in Kirkton of Craig
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Failed movement joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Expansion joints
What the job involves on each surface
Worktops & kitchens
Shrunken worktop sealant leaves a gap that lets water into the back edge. We strip it, degrease the joint and reseal colour-matched to the worktop.
Over-sealed & botched joints
Botched joints sometimes have damaged edges from earlier scraping. We work carefully to avoid adding to it, and point out any existing damage.

What remedial sealant looks like in Kirkton of Craig
Kirkton of Craig is within about 2 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black.
If you live in an older home near Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Rented homes near Montrose station change hands often, and a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

Do you need remedial sealant in Kirkton of Craig?
Some joints fail because water is reaching them from behind. A slow leak behind the tiles soaks the joint from the back, so the silicone goes mouldy or lets go.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
Schools such as Montrose Academy are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
Questions to ask before you book
- Are they insured?
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- The length of the guarantee
