About our remedial sealant in Lennie
A joint that keeps letting you down needs more than another bead. It helps to have pictures when you email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk. If you are dealing with worktop sealant that has shrunk and split and movement joints that have split or pulled away, we can put it right, on expansion joints, failed movement joints and botched or over-sealed joints alike.
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.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Lennie
One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. New silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so the top layer lifts and water and mould collect between the two.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
If you look after a building such as Craigmount High School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Leave it or put it right?
A failed seal rarely means a new bathroom. When the fittings are sound, stripping and resealing the joints is often enough. Where something else has failed, you’ll hear it from us. In an older home around Lennie, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.
Why us?
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- Homes, businesses and hotels
Surface by surface
Windows & doors
Failed frame mastic is often hard, cracked and in several layers. We remove it all and clean back to sound surfaces.
Movement & expansion joints
Movement joints in floors, walls and façades need a flexible sealant set to the right depth. We remove the failed sealant, fit backing and reseal with a low-modulus product.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Don’t point over movement joints
- Don’t wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
Give the new sealant its full cure time: normally around 24 hours, or as long as we advise.
Do not keep resealing the same joint. Have someone find out why, otherwise the next attempt will fail too.
How the visit works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The work normally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out, depending on the amount of work. Somewhere like Lennie may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
- All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
- Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Lennie questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Edinburgh Gateway station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Do you take on hotel work around Lennie?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes. Careful removal is most of a remedial job, especially on acrylic, enamel and uPVC.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?
Yes. There’s generally a reason: sealant over sealant, movement or another leak, so we find that first.
