Ninewells: your questions answered
Do you work in hotels near Ninewells?
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.
Do you work for landlords with property near Invergowrie station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No, and it’s one of the main reasons reseals fail. We cut out all of the old sealant, clean the joint and start again.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
A single bath or shower takes about a couple of hours, old sealant removal included. A whole bathroom plus the kitchen may take most of the day.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
Silicone is touch-dry quite quickly, but it takes longer to cure. Keep water off it for around 24 hours, or as long as we advise for that product.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
About our bathroom resealing in Ninewells
The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through and into the wall or floor. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. If you’re dealing with splits where the tray meets the wall and a reseal done over the top of the old bead, we can help, whatever the surface.
Tenement flats are common in all four of Scotland’s big cities, alongside suburban houses and modern blocks. With flats above and below, a leak from a tired seal can reach the flat underneath, and that’s as true in Ninewells as anywhere in the city.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Leave it or put it right?
You do not need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. A new bead often brings the whole room back, as long as the fittings themselves are sound. If something else is wrong, we’ll tell you. Scottish rain finds any gap around a frame or wall joint, and in Ninewells, damp can spread through stone and plaster before anyone sees it.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

When to call us in Ninewells
Black mould is behind a lot of resealing. Bathrooms without good ventilation give mould all the damp it needs, and once it has grown into the bead, cleaning rarely gets it out.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
Letting a property close to Invergowrie station? Then a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
What your quote should include
- Are they insured?
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- What the cure time is
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ninewells
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. We can quote for more than one property at once.
What the job involves on each surface
Sinks & splashbacks
Where a splashback meets the worktop, there’s a joint that catches every splash. It’s resealed in white, clear or a colour to suit.
Shower trays & enclosures
A tray that rocks will split any sealant. Movement is checked before anything is resealed, and tell you if it needs re-bedding first.
What we do, step by step
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is and we leave things clean and tidy. In a city area like Ninewells, parking may be by permit or pay-and-display, so tell us what’s nearby. For flats, mention the door entry system and any shared-stair arrangements.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Ninewells has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Menzieshill High School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, which is generally around 24 hours. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning generally will not remove it, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
