Lacasaidh Remedial Sealant
We cover Lacasaidh for removing failed, mouldy or leaking sealant and putting it right. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly.
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- A second bead peeling off the first
About our remedial sealant in Lacasaidh
Removing failed sealant is the hardest part of the job. Every layer is cut out, the residue cleaned off and the joint degreased, without scratching tiles, trays or frames. Only then can new sealant bond. Typical jobs include beads that never stuck properly and floor or wall movement joints that have failed, on expansion joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and leaking tray & enclosure joints.
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.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Do you need remedial sealant in Lacasaidh?
Silicone only bonds to surfaces that are clean and dry. Soap film, dust, damp or old residue stop it gripping, and the joint starts to come away early.
Look out for any of the following:
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
- Torn expansion joints
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Over-sealed joints coming away
If you live in an older home near Kinloch Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Your questions about remedial sealant in Lacasaidh
Is remedial sealant in Lacasaidh guaranteed?
All our work, in Lacasaidh and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Can you do remedial sealant in Lacasaidh?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Lacasaidh is part of that. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?
Yes. We check it’s the sealant and not the tray, valve or waste, then strip and reseal the joints.
Can you take off two layers of silicone?
Yes. Stripping layered sealant takes longer than a normal reseal, but it’s the only way the new joint will last.
How long does remedial resealing take?
It takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. You’ll know the timing when we quote.
Are you insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured for every job we do.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels across Na h-Eileanan Siar.
Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.

The process
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Outside jobs in Lacasaidh need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- We start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Move anything stored near the joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Lacasaidh homes and their sealant
Lacasaidh is within about 1 mile of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.
Around Lacasaidh, as everywhere, remedial sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Lacasaidh is in Na h-Eileanan Siar. Jobs in Lacasaidh get the same care as everywhere else we work: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee. Across Na h-Eileanan Siar, we cover 87 places, Lacasaidh among them.
Work in HS2 is quoted and booked the same way as anywhere else. Nearby, we also carry out remedial sealant in Baile Ailein (3 miles west), Liurbost (3 miles north-east), North Lochs (4 miles north-east), Crosbost (4 miles north-east) and Marybank (9 miles north-east). If you are somewhere remote, the job takes a little more planning, so mention it when you ask for a quote.
Local landmarks in Lacasaidh
Other landmarks nearby include Ravenspoint Centre Museum (1 mile south-east). For a walk, there’s Nisreaval and Loch na Craoibhe.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Do not wait for a small gap to become a leak
Keep the room ventilated: use the extractor or open a window after showering.
Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Each use pushes more water behind the bead, into floors, walls or ceilings. Sorting it early limits the damage.
What the job involves on each surface
Over-sealed & botched joints
Previous removal attempts can leave scratches or gouges. We take care not to make it worse, and point out any existing damage.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould can sit behind the silicone, not just in it. Once it’s all removed, the joint is treated.
Why act early in Lacasaidh
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. Around Lacasaidh, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
