Remedial sealant in Temple
A joint that keeps letting you down needs more than another bead. Send pictures when you email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk, along with when it was last resealed. If you are dealing with kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop and repeat leaks from the same joint, we can put it right.
Scotland’s cities have a lot of flats, from sandstone or granite tenements to modern blocks, as well as houses in the suburbs. Generally soft Scottish water means less limescale, but steam and poor ventilation still let mould into the sealant and grout.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Don’t point over movement joints
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
Watch the joint over the first few weeks, especially if movement was the problem. If anything changes, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Signs to act on: sealant lifting at the ends, a second bead visible on top of the first, black mould under the silicone, or stains below a bathroom. Any of them means it’s time for remedial work.
Different surfaces, different methods
Leaking trays & enclosures
Repeat shower leaks often come from a tray that flexes or an enclosure sealed in the wrong place. We check both before any new sealant goes on.
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints often have grease and cleaning residue deep in them, so we spend extra time cleaning before resealing.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Your questions about remedial sealant in Temple
Do you work in hotels near Temple?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Anniesland station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Can you take off two layers of silicone?
Yes. Both layers come out; over-sealing fails because silicone won’t bond to silicone.
What if the leak isn’t the sealant?
You will hear it from us. A cracked tray, faulty valve or leaking waste needs a different trade, and we won’t reseal for the sake of it.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes. We avoid heavy scraping and use the right cleaner for each surface, so the new sealant bonds cleanly.
Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?
Yes. All the sealant comes out, we find out why it failed, and the joint is resealed properly.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
What affects the quote in Temple
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- The number and length of the joints
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How many areas need sealing
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Roughly how big the job is
- A few photos by email, if you can
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The address or postcode of the job
Want a quote for remedial sealant? Please email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the job. You will know what we plan to do, and what it will cost, before any work begins.
Why deal with it now?
A failed seal rarely means a new bathroom. If the bath, tray and tiles are sound, remedial resealing generally puts it right. Where something else has failed, you will hear it from us. In a Scottish city tenement, failed sealant affects more than one flat: a leak can come through the ceiling below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-rated joints matter to every flat.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

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

Remedial sealant around Temple
Glasgow has a lot of sandstone tenements, where most bathrooms sit above another flat. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.
Letting a property close to Anniesland station? Then botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. Homes close to All Saints Church include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. If you look after a building such as Knightswood Secondary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
