About our remedial sealant in Taobh Lochaidh

With more than 20 years’ experience, our applicators have seen most of the ways sealant can fail. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and every remedial job comes with a 12-month guarantee. If you have thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles and repeat leaks from the same joint, we can put it right, on expansion joints, failed movement joints and botched or over-sealed joints alike.

Being further from a city does not change the work: 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.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Taobh Lochaidh and across Highland.

What sealant work cannot fix

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’ll tell you before we start. Sealant will not put right:

  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
  • Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal

If you are not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Botched or over-sealed joints
  • Failed movement joints
  • Shrunken worktop sealant
  • Leaking tray & enclosure joints
  • Mouldy bath & shower sealant
  • Expansion joints

How the job changes by surface

Windows & doors

Wrong-coloured or messy mastic can be replaced for appearance too, in a colour that suits the frame.

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.

Leave it or put it right?

Remedial work takes longer than a straight reseal, but not by much: the work 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. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.

There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Keeping the joints in good condition

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
  • Act on a lifting corner right away
  • Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
  • Always have old sealant cut out, not covered

Keep the room ventilated: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.

Mould trapped under over-sealed joints spreads unseen. By the time it shows through, the joint is well past saving.

What happens on the day

There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. For a place like Taobh Lochaidh, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.

  1. Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
  2. Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
  3. The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
  4. Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
  5. We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
