Remedial sealant in New Alyth, done properly

Getting old sealant out properly is slow, careful work. We cut out every layer, clear the residue and degrease the surfaces, taking care not to scratch the surfaces around it. Only then can new sealant bond. If you are dealing with repeat leaks from the same joint and movement joints that have split or pulled away, we can help, on botched or over-sealed joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and shrunken worktop sealant alike.

Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are normally the first signs.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

What we are called out for in New Alyth

A lot of failed joints have been sealed over rather than replaced. New silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so the top layer lifts and water and mould collect between the two.

People generally contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Black mould underneath the bead
  • Movement joints that have split or pulled away
  • Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
  • Beads that never stuck properly

For an older house near a landmark such as St Ninian's Episcopal Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.

  1. The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
  2. Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
  3. We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
  5. We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

What the job involves on each surface

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Black mould inside the bead won’t scrub out. All of it comes out, and the joint is treated and dried before anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in.

Leaking trays & enclosures

If the tray is cracked, or the leak is from the valve or waste, sealant will not fix it. We’ll tell you what we find.

Can I do it myself?

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.

Why deal with it now?

Leaks that are left keep doing damage out of sight: soaked floorboards, ceiling stains below and blown plaster. Dealing with the joint now is a small job by comparison. In a place like New Alyth, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.

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. The price is agreed before we begin.

New Alyth: your questions answered

Will you come out to New Alyth?

Yes, New Alyth is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. We’re fully insured.

How do I get a quote for remedial sealant in New Alyth?

There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.

How long does remedial resealing take?

The number of joints and layers decides it. We’ll tell you before work begins.

Does remedial work come with a guarantee?

Yes, for 12 months. If we have pointed out another problem, getting it fixed helps the new joint last.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Of course. Doing several areas at once is generally more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.

Is there any odour?

Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

New Alyth has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
  • Find out why the sealant failed first
  • Don’t add new sealant on top of old
  • Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout

Clean gently: no scraping, scouring pads or harsh chemicals.

A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.
