Your questions about bathroom resealing in Yorkhill
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Partick station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Can a failed shower seal in a tenement flat in Yorkhill leak into the flat below?
Yes, and the first sign is often a mark on the ceiling below. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a fresh bead puts a stop to it.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the cure time for the product we used.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. We can talk about working times when we quote.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes. The old sealant comes out, the mould is treated, and we reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Are you insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
It takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. We’ll confirm how long your job needs when we quote.
About our bathroom resealing in Yorkhill
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. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on sinks & splashbacks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are damp behind the bath or under the tray and sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away.
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.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Yorkhill
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. Wet areas call for a sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
If you let a flat or house near Partick station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

What the job involves on each surface
Sinks & splashbacks
Splashbacks in glass, tile or acrylic meet the worktop in a long joint. We renew it in clear, white or a matched colour.
Shower trays & enclosures
A tray that rocks will split any sealant. We check for movement before we reseal, and if the tray needs refixing, we will say so.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Failed grout lines across the wall
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If you’re not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Basins & vanity units
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
Why deal with it now?
Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it cannot stick to what’s underneath. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it, so the next person has twice as much to remove. Wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint on the outside of a city building, and in a tall building in Yorkhill, damp can travel a long way before it shows.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.
