Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Mastrick
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. If you have sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface and mould trapped under a layer of silicone, we can help, on botched or over-sealed joints, shrunken worktop sealant and leaking tray & enclosure joints alike.
In Scotland’s cities, including the area around Mastrick, many older flats had their bathrooms added into small rooms later on. Rooms like that are often small and slow to dry out, and steam with nowhere to go is what turns sealant black and grout grey.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Mastrick
Do you cover Mastrick for remedial sealant?
Yes, Mastrick is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
I’m in a tenement in Mastrick. Could worn sealant affect the flat downstairs?
Yes, it can. In a tenement, water that gets past failed sealant or cracked grout can run under the bath or tray and through to the ceiling below. It’s worth sorting sealant and grout before it gets that far.
Do you fix expansion and movement joints?
Yes. We cut out the failed sealant, fit backing and reseal with a flexible product.
What sealant do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Do you guarantee remedial jobs?
Yes. Remedial work carries the same 12-month guarantee as all our work.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes. We avoid heavy scraping and use the right cleaner for each surface.
How long does remedial resealing take?
The number of joints and layers decides it. We’ll tell you before work begins.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
What the job involves on each surface
Over-sealed & botched joints
Thick, smeared sealant looks messy and hides problems. We strip it back so we can see the joint, and then we reseal it neatly.
Movement & expansion joints
Joints filled with mortar, grout or rigid filler cannot move. Where it can be raked out, we replace it with flexible sealant.
The process
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Many homes in Scotland’s cities are tenement flats, reached through a shared close and up a common stair. In Mastrick, it helps to know the floor, the door entry arrangements and the nearest parking.
- We protect the surfaces around the joint.
- 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.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention any tricky access

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Find out why the sealant failed first
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
- Do not point over movement joints
- Run the fan after every shower
Where we’ve pointed out another fault, have it put right, because the new sealant can’t hold back a problem underneath.
If a joint has failed more than once, stop resealing it. Get the cause found first, or the next bead will go the same way.
Mastrick homes and their sealant
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. Aberdeen is known for its granite tenements, and in a tenement, a failed seal can reach the flat below.
Managing a site like Northfield Academy? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Do you need remedial sealant in Mastrick?
Products get mixed up: caulk where it gets wet, rigid sealant where things move, or an acetoxy silicone on a surface it can mark. None of them last.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
For landlords with property near Aberdeen station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

What affects the cost of remedial sealant
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The type of sealant required
- Whether the work is at height
- When we can work, for business premises
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- The type of property
- Roughly how big the job is
- How we’d reach the joints
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email photos if that is easy.

What else we do in Mastrick
Why deal with it now?
Hidden water does the most damage: wet floors, stained ceilings and swollen worktops. Dealing with the joint now is a small job by comparison. Wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint on the outside of a city building, and in a tall building in Mastrick, damp can travel a long way before it shows.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
