Remedial sealant in Montrose
With more than 20 years’ experience, our applicators have seen most of the ways sealant can fail. We are ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and every remedial job comes with a 12-month guarantee. Typical jobs include smears and lumps from a botched reseal and caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area, across expansion joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and failed movement joints.
Homes in a town like Montrose range from flats in older buildings to family houses on newer estates. The jobs are much the same in all of them: mouldy beads, gaps where a bath has moved and grout that is cracked or stained.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

When to call us in Montrose
Even good sealant ages. Over the years it shrinks, hardens and gets colonised by mould. At that point it has to come out.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- A second bead peeling off the first
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
If you let a flat or house near Montrose station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is
- Whether VAT is included
- Which colour the sealant will be
- What preparation is included
Montrose questions
Can you do remedial sealant in Montrose?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Montrose is part of that. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you work for landlords with property near Montrose station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
We will suggest a colour to suit the surroundings. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we’re fully insured.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we are fully insured.
How the job changes by surface
Movement & expansion joints
Joints filled with mortar, grout or rigid filler cannot move. We rake that out where it can be removed and seal with a flexible product.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Black mould inside the bead won’t scrub out. The sealant is cut out completely, the joint treated with a mould remover and dried before anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in.
Other services in Montrose
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
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 for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Parking around Montrose is rarely difficult, though older streets in the centre can be tight. If you’re in a flat with a shared stair or a door entry system, let us know when you book.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- New sealant goes in once the joint is dry, and is tooled smooth.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Mention any parking rules near the property

What affects the cost of remedial sealant
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Any mould that needs treating
- The product the joint needs
- The old material and how stubborn it is
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

- Whether it’s a home or a business
- The rough size of the job
- How we’d reach the joints
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll take it from there.
Remedial sealant in Montrose: local notes
Montrose is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. 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 does not dry out.
If you look after a building such as Montrose Academy, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Leave it or put it right?
Mould under a bead can’t be reached by cleaning. The layers have to come out, so the joint can be treated and resealed. In Montrose, wind and rain soon get through failed outside joints. Inside, a failed seal around a bath or shower lets water into floors and ceilings.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Deal with small splits early
- Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Don’t add new sealant on top of old
Give the new sealant its full cure time: follow the cure time we give you.
Mould trapped under over-sealed joints spreads unseen. By the time it shows through, the joint is well past saving.
