About our washroom sealing in Aiginis
Our washroom work covers offices, hotels, schools and colleges, leisure centres and gyms, clinics and care homes, plus the kitchens and tea points that go with them. The products and the method are chosen for how heavily each space is used. Site teams most often ask us about users noticing mouldy joints and shower tray joints that have opened up, on IPS panels and cubicles, accessible toilets and changing rooms and vanity units and basins. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Aiginis, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
For washroom work around Aiginis, we plan so every room on the list is done in one trip where possible. Send photographs and a room list and we’ll give a fixed quote.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
On site: what to expect
Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint, ready for your sign-off. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. For a building near Aiginis, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- We start by inspecting the fittings and joints and flagging problems sealant can’t solve.
- We agree which rooms close and when, so users always have somewhere to go.
- The failed silicone is stripped and every face scraped clean of residue.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- We lay a sanitary silicone bead and tool it smooth so it is easy to clean.
- Rooms reopen after the product’s cure time, and we move to the next.
What we need from you
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

Commercial washrooms in Aiginis
Aiginis is within about 1 mile of the coast, and seaside hospitality normally has a peak season that works washrooms hard. Showers and en suites in constant use are where silicone moulds and splits first, so resealing in the quieter months keeps rooms ready. Aiginis is on Scotland’s wetter western side. In a damp climate, washrooms that aren’t well ventilated stay wet for longer, and sealant in a room that never dries out moulds faster.
For an occupier at a site such as Parkend Industrial Estate, which lies west of Aiginis, the canteen and welfare facilities need cleanable joints as much as any office.
Aiginis (Gaelic: Aignish) is in Na h-Eileanan Siar. Commercial clients in Aiginis can call on us for washrooms and wet areas, as part of our coverage of Na h-Eileanan Siar. 87 places across Na h-Eileanan Siar fall within our area, Aiginis among them.

Why it’s worth doing now in Aiginis
Waiting for a holiday closure can leave failing joints in place for a long time. Phasing lets it happen now, with facilities kept in use. Renewing every failing joint on one visit is the sensible approach for a place like Aiginis. Send photographs and we’ll quote for everything together.
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Common questions from Aiginis clients
Is Aiginis inside the area you cover, given it’s on an island?
Yes. We work across every Scottish council area, and that includes island locations such as Aiginis. Ferry times and the weather set the plan, so we ask for photos and a full list first.
Do we have to close all our washrooms in Aiginis for resealing?
Usually only some of them, for a short time. We work in phases so other facilities stay open. We’ll tell you the curing time for the product before we start.
Do you need to remove the old sealant?
The whole of the old bead is removed and the surfaces cleaned before resealing. It’s the difference between a joint that lasts and one that peels.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, as many construction sites ask for.
How do you choose the sealant?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
How much does the work cost?
Each job is quoted on its own details. To get one, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with a description of the work.
How long will the new sealant last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
When to call us in Aiginis
We often find acrylic caulk or general-purpose sealant in joints that should have sanitary silicone. They don’t stand up to constant water, and they stain, crack or wash out.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Shower tray joints that have opened up
- Users noticing mouldy joints
- Failed sealant behind washroom basins
- Kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean
At a hospital like Western Isles Hospital (3.8 miles west of Aiginis), patient and staff washrooms are best done in short phases agreed with the ward.
What to look for in a quote
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- Proof of insurance
- Who will actually carry out the work
When something else is needed
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Swollen or delaminated boards behind panels or vanity tops
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think before you book.
