About our remedial sealant in Peterculter
A joint that keeps failing generally has a reason. A tray that moves, a worktop that is not fixed, the wrong sealant or water getting in elsewhere will beat any new bead. We look for the cause before we reseal. If you have repeat leaks from the same joint and dark patches showing through the sealant, we can help, on leaking tray & enclosure joints, failed movement joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant alike.
Bathrooms in smaller places like Peterculter work just as hard as those in the cities. Generally soft Scottish water means less limescale, but steam still lets mould into sealant and grout.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Why deal with it now?
Another bead over the top won’t fix a failed joint. It cannot bond to what’s underneath, leaving the leak in place and one more layer to cut out later. In an older home around Peterculter, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep the room well ventilated
- Find out why the sealant failed first
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
Where we have pointed out another fault, have it put right, because the new sealant cannot hold back a problem underneath.
Signs to act on: peeling layers, mould showing through the bead, leaks after showering or cracks in a movement joint. Each one is worth getting looked at.
How the job changes by surface
Movement & expansion joints
Joints filled with mortar, grout or rigid filler cannot move. Where it can be raked out, we replace it with flexible sealant.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Repeat mould generally points to a damp, poorly aired room. We will reseal and tell you if extraction looks to be the issue.
Peterculter homes and their sealant
Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and 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. Aberdeen, the Granite City, has plenty of granite tenements, where, as in any flat, a failed seal can reach the flat below.
If you live in an older home near Kelman Memorial Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

What happens on the day
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Outdoor work around Peterculter 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.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- 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
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Related advice
Common problems we fix in Peterculter
Even good sealant ages. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks, especially in damp, poorly aired rooms. At that point it has to come out.
People normally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- A second bead peeling off the first
If you look after a building such as Culter School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
