Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Paisley
A joint that keeps failing normally has a reason. Movement, the wrong product or a leak from somewhere else will beat any new bead. We look for the cause before we reseal. If you have thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles and a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In a town like Paisley, stone-built older streets generally sit alongside harled houses and newer estates. Whatever the age of the house, sealant and grout wear out in the end.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Paisley as everywhere else we work.

Honest limits
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before we start. It will not solve:
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
- A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Expansion joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Failed movement joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
What happens on the day
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The work normally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, depending on how much there is to do. In a Scottish town like Paisley, parking is generally straightforward, though older centres can be tighter. For flats, mention the shared stair or door entry system.
- We protect the surfaces around the joint.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

- The product the joint needs
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The amount of work

Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- The problem you’ve noticed

- The address or postcode of the job
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email pictures if that is easy.
Leave it or put it right?
Remedial work takes longer than a straight reseal, but rarely a lot: it takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Compared with chasing the same leak every few months, it’s time well spent. Scottish weather finds any gap, and in a town like Paisley, failed outside joints soon let damp into walls. Inside, a failed seal around a bath or shower lets water into floors and ceilings.
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’ll know the price before we begin.

Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Do not point over movement joints
- Run the fan after every shower
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
If the joint ever needs renewing, have it cut out, not sealed over. New silicone does not bond to old.
Warning signs: peeling layers, mould showing through the bead, leaks after showering or cracks in a movement joint. Each one is worth getting looked at.
What we are called out for in Paisley
Silicone only bonds to surfaces that are clean and dry. Soap film, dust, damp or old residue stop it gripping, and the joint starts to come away early.
People usually contact us after spotting something like this:
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Castlehead High School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What insurance they hold
- Which colour the sealant will be
- What happens if the job turns out different
