FAQs for Lambhill
I’m in a tenement in Lambhill. Could worn sealant affect the flat downstairs?
Yes. With flats above and below, a leak from a failed seal rarely stays in one flat. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a fresh bead puts a stop to it.
Do you take on hotel work around Lambhill?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
How much does remedial sealant cost in Lambhill?
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.
Is remedial work guaranteed?
Yes. Every job comes with our one-year guarantee.
What sealant do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
How long should I leave it?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
About our remedial sealant in Lambhill
Two decades of sealant work means we recognise most failures quickly. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and remedial work carries our one-year guarantee. We work on mouldy bath & shower sealant, botched or over-sealed joints and failed movement joints, and people most often call us about mould trapped under a layer of silicone and sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface.
Lambhill is in one of Scotland’s four big cities, where many tenement bathrooms were fitted into rooms that weren’t built for them. Rooms like that are often small and slow to dry out, which is hard on sealant and grout.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

What affects the quote in Lambhill
We don’t publish a price list. The quote depends on:
- Any mould that needs treating
- How much there is to do
- How many areas need sealing
- The type of sealant required
Combining jobs into one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.
What we need to know
When you call or email, these details help:
- Roughly how big the job is
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- If someone has resealed it before
For a quote, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.
How it works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. For a tenement in Lambhill, work inside your flat is between us and you, while shared parts may need the factor or neighbours to agree. Tell us which applies when you book.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Never seal over old silicone
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
Go easy on the new sealant: a mild cleaner and a soft cloth, with no blades or scourers.
If a joint has failed more than once, stop resealing it. Get the cause found first, otherwise the next attempt will fail too.
Remedial sealant in Lambhill: local notes

For landlords with property near Possilpark & Parkhouse station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. Schools such as John Paul Academy are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

What else we do in Lambhill
Why act early in Lambhill
Remedial work takes longer than a straight reseal, but not by much: it takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Compared with chasing the same leak every few months, it’s time well spent. In a tenement flat in Lambhill, a failed seal is rarely just your problem: a leak can come through the ceiling below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-rated joints matter to every flat.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why book with us
- More than 20 years in sealant work
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- Tidy, careful work
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Different surfaces, different methods
Movement & expansion joints
A movement joint must be able to stretch. We remove the failed sealant, fit backing and reseal with a low-modulus product.
Leaking trays & enclosures
Where the joints are the problem, every bead is stripped and resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, including the screen profile and tray edges.
