About our remedial sealant in Wick
A movement joint stops working when its sealant splits or sets hard. The old sealant comes out and backing goes in to control the depth, before resealing with a flexible product suited to the movement. We work on mouldy bath & shower sealant, failed movement joints and botched or over-sealed joints, and the jobs we see most are wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones and a second bead peeling off the first.
In and around a place like Wick, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are normally the first signs.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Leave it or put it right?
Mould under a bead can’t be reached by cleaning. Removal is the only way to get at it. Around Wick, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

For landlords and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

Should I try it myself first?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
What affects the cost of remedial sealant
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- The type of sealant required
- The number of rooms or windows
- When we can work, for business premises
- Access and height
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The address or postcode of the job
- Whether it has been sealed before
To get a quote, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. We’ll give you a clear price before any work starts.
The process
There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out in most cases. For a place like Wick, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Clean sealant with mild products only
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
If we have found a cause, such as a loose tray or a leaking waste, get it fixed, because the new sealant can’t hold back a problem underneath.
Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into whatever is behind or below. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.
What we are called out for in Wick
Even good sealant ages. Over the years it shrinks, hardens and gets colonised by mould, especially in damp, poorly aired rooms. Then the only fix is removal and a new bead.
Look out for any of the following:
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Black mould underneath the bead
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
Letting a property close to Wick station? Then botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

Managing a site like Wick High School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Common questions in Wick
Is Wick within the area you cover?
Yes, Wick is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Wick station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
How long will it take to strip and reseal the joint?
Allow a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. You will know the timing when we quote.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Can you remove sealant that’s been put over old sealant?
Yes. Both layers come out; new silicone does not bond to old silicone, which is why over-sealing fails.
Can you fix a reseal that hasn’t worked?
Yes. First we check whether the leak is the sealant at all, then strip and reseal the joints.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, we are fully insured for every job we do.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
