How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can get on with your day. The job generally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In a city area like Danestone, parking may be by permit or pay-and-display, so tell us what’s nearby. If you’re in a flat, let us know how we get in at the street door.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed, including the film left on the tiles.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
How we handle bathroom resealing in Danestone
Sealant that is mouldy, cracked or peeling shouldn’t be left until there’s a leak. A photo of the joints helps when you email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk, and you’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. Typical jobs include a bead that has pulled away from the tiles and mouldy sealant that has gone black, across kitchen worktops & upstands, basins & vanity units and sinks & splashbacks.
From stone-built tenements to new flats and suburban houses, Danestone is in a city with every kind of home. Scottish water is generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas, but mould still grows into sealant and grout in a steamy bathroom.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- The size of the job
- Access and height
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Working hours on commercial sites
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Where the property is
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Roughly how big the job is
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
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.
When to call us in Danestone
The wrong product fails fast. Decorators’ caulk and all-purpose sealants are not made for constant wetting, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. A bathroom joint needs anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
If you let a flat or house near Dyce station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.
Before booking anyone
- How hidden problems are handled
- What product goes in the joint
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Whether VAT is included
What happens if it’s left?
A clean new bead makes a room look cared for, which matters if you’re letting a property or selling it. Lumpy sealant with smears on the tiles has the opposite effect, and it’s harder to put right later. For landlords in Danestone, damp and leaks can be a Repairing Standard issue, so it’s worth fixing failed sealant before a tenant reports it.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Why us?
- We agree the colour with you first
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants

FAQs for Danestone
Do you take on hotel work around Danestone?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Could a leaking bath seal in my Danestone flat reach the neighbours below?
It can. Tenement floors are usually timber, and water from a failed seal can find its way down to the flat below. Replacing tired sealant early is the simplest way to avoid that.
Is it messy?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Do the sealants smell?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
How long does it take to reseal a bath or shower?
One bath or shower is around two hours’ work, old sealant removal included. A full bathroom and kitchen can take most of a day.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
Keep bottles and razors off the sealant line, as they hold water against it. Squeegeeing the walls and tray after use helps the joint dry.
A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning normally will not remove it. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
- Failed grout lines across the wall
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
If you are not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Bathroom resealing around Danestone
Danestone is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in.
If you live in an older home near Danestone Congregational Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Bridge of Don Academy, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
