FAQs for Pitmedden
Do you cover Pitmedden for remedial sealant?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Pitmedden is part of that. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
What guarantee comes with remedial sealant in Pitmedden?
All our work, in Pitmedden and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.
Can you take off two layers of silicone?
Yes. We cut out all the layers and clean off the film, then the joint is resealed once.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
My shower still leaks after a reseal. Can you sort it?
Yes, normally. We check it’s the sealant and not the tray, valve or waste, then strip and reseal the joints.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
About our remedial sealant in Pitmedden
Not every leak is a sealant leak. Cracked trays, leaking wastes and faulty valves often look like a sealant problem. When the fault is elsewhere, we say so instead of resealing for the sake of it. If you have beads that never stuck properly and thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles, we can put it right, on leaking tray & enclosure joints, failed movement joints and shrunken worktop sealant alike.
A bathroom in a place like Pitmedden gets the same daily wear as one in a city flat. Generally soft Scottish water means less limescale, but steam still lets mould into sealant and grout.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Pitmedden and across Aberdeenshire.

Surface by surface
Leaking trays & enclosures
If the tray is cracked, or the leak is from the valve or waste, sealant won’t fix it. We’ll tell you what we find.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Where mould keeps coming back, ventilation is usually part of the cause. We’ll reseal and tell you if extraction looks to be the issue.

Quotes for remedial sealant in Pitmedden
You will get a clear quote before we start. It’s based on:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The product the joint needs
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
What we need to know
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email photos if that’s easy.
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
- Do not add new sealant on top of old
- Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
If the joint ever needs renewing, have it cut out, not sealed over. New silicone doesn’t bond to old.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.
Leave it or put it right?
Adding more sealant is the usual quick fix, and it rarely works. 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 Pitmedden, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.

Do you need remedial sealant in Pitmedden?
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.
The most common problems we see are:
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
Around Pitmedden, as everywhere, remedial sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it.
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is
- How the colour is chosen
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
Remedial sealant around Pitmedden
In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies. 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.
For jobs in and around Pitmedden, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, and the area is left clean. Outside jobs in Pitmedden need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
- Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
- The joint is cleaned, treated for mould and left to dry.
- Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
