About our remedial sealant in Tulloch
The wrong product in the wrong joint fails however neatly it’s applied. We take it out and use a sealant made for that joint. We work on botched or over-sealed joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and expansion joints, and people most often call us about over-sealed joints coming away and torn expansion joints.
Bathrooms in smaller places like Tulloch 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.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check trays and worktops do not move
- Keep the room well ventilated
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
Keep the room ventilated: use the extractor or open a window after showering.
If a joint has failed more than once, stop resealing it. Get the cause found first, or the next bead will go the same way.
Tulloch: your questions answered
Will you come out to Tulloch?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
I let a flat near Perth station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
How long should I leave it?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes. Residue is removed with a product suited to the surface rather than scraped hard, so the new sealant bonds cleanly.
Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Can you reseal a split movement joint?
Yes. Failed movement joints are cut out and resealed with backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
How we quote for remedial sealant
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Any mould that needs treating
- Access and height
- Which sealant suits the joint
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are unsure, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, let us know:
- How we’d reach the joints
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Roughly how big the job is
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
What the job involves on each surface
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Where mould keeps coming back, ventilation is normally part of the cause. Along with resealing, we will mention if the room needs better ventilation.
Worktops & kitchens
A loose worktop splits its sealant. It needs fixing down first, which we’ll point out.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Tulloch
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 does not dry out.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Bertha Park High School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

What sealant work cannot fix
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
- Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
- A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Failed movement joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Expansion joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
How it works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. For a place like Tulloch, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Do you need remedial sealant in Tulloch?
Movement tears sealant that is not designed for it. Flexing baths, rocking trays and building movement joints will split a rigid or thin bead.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
Rented homes near Perth station change hands often, and failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.
What to look for in a quote
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Are they insured?
