Should I try it myself first?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

What affects the cost of remedial sealant
You will get a clear quote before we start. It’s based on:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The product the joint needs
- Access and height
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, please include:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
When to call us in Meikle Auchengree
Movement tears sealant that isn’t designed for it. Flexing baths, rocking trays and building movement joints split any bead that’s too stiff or too thin.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
Rented homes near Glengarnock station change hands often, and failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

Surface by surface
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould that has grown into silicone doesn’t clean out for good. All of it comes out, and the joint is treated and dried ahead of a new anti-fungal bead.
Worktops & kitchens
Shrunken worktop sealant leaves a gap that lets water into the back edge. We strip it, degrease the joint and reseal.
What happens on the day
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Outdoor work around Meikle Auchengree depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.
Getting ready for the visit

Advice
When it isn’t the sealant
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first
If you are not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Remedial sealant around Meikle Auchengree
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. Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black.
In the older streets around Kilbirnie Auld Kirk, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
