Remedial sealant in Munlochy, done properly
In Munlochy, as anywhere, remedial jobs tend to look alike: over-sealed joints, hidden mould, repeat leaks and split movement joints. We strip each one back and start from scratch. If you’re dealing with gaps opening along the back of the worktop and movement joints that have split or pulled away, we can put it right.
For a place like Munlochy, the job is the same as anywhere: everything old is cut out, the joints are cleaned and dried, and new sealant or grout goes in. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Why act early in Munlochy
DIY removal often leaves scratches and a film of residue, and any film left behind stops new sealant sticking. Careful removal is most of a remedial job. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
Why us?
- We are fully insured
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows

What we do, step by step
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. For a place like Munlochy, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- We protect the surfaces around the joint.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
- Check trays and worktops do not move
- Do not wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Keep the room well ventilated
Leave the new joint to cure fully before it gets wet or moves: follow the cure time we give you.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.
When something else is needed
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays
- A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
If you’re not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Common problems we fix in Munlochy
How a joint is built matters as much as the product. Sealant packed too deep, or stuck to the back of the joint as well as the sides, can’t stretch, so it tears when the joint moves. Backing sets the depth and stops that.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- A second bead peeling off the first
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
If you live in an older home near Knockbain Munlochy Parish Church and Boundary Wall, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Remedial sealant around Munlochy
Munlochy is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, 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 doesn’t dry out.
In and around Munlochy, as anywhere, good remedial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
