DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Honest limits
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
- Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
- A tray or bath that is cracked
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- Expansion joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Failed movement joints
For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.

Surface by surface
Leaking trays & enclosures
A shower that leaks after resealing often has a tray that moves or an enclosure sealed on the wrong side. Both are checked before any new sealant goes on.
Movement & expansion joints
Joints filled with mortar, grout or rigid filler can’t move. We rake that out where it can be removed and seal with a flexible product.
Remedial sealant in Mauchline: local notes
In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in. Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that doesn’t dry out.
Letting a property close to Auchinleck station? Then failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

The process
On the day, we start by going over the job with you. Surfaces next to the work are protected before work begins. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Outside jobs in Mauchline need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- 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.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Clear the area around the work

When to call us in Mauchline
A lot of failed joints have been sealed over rather than replaced. Silicone does not bond to silicone, so the top layer lifts and water and mould collect between the two.
Look out for these signs:
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
For an older house near a landmark such as Mauchline Old Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
