Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Aird Tong
Whether it’s a single toilet block in Aird Tong or a programme across several buildings, we work the same way: details first, then a fixed quote, then the work, then the 12-month guarantee. Photos and a rough count of basins, urinals, showers and cubicles help us give a quick quote and a site visit is an option. Site teams most often ask us about mould spotting along silicone joints and urinal joints that look unhygienic, on showers, trays and wet room floors, accessible toilets and changing rooms and kitchens and tea points. For commercial sealant work in Aird Tong, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
In smaller Scottish places like Aird Tong, commercial washrooms are typically in hotels, pubs, schools, care homes and community halls. Mould grows into sealant in any wet room that doesn’t dry out, and the answer is removal and a fresh bead of anti-mould silicone.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Na h-Eileanan Siar. Should something we installed fail, call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll come back to it.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.

Advice
How the quote is worked out
Each job is priced on its own details. The things that drive the figure:
- Phasing around occupants
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Sending details for a quote
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:
- The site address and postcode
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Any specification or named product
Pricing a project or setting a maintenance budget? Send the scope and any drawings, and we will return a fixed quote you can plan around. If you have questions first, phone 01277 525 020 or email us.
After the work
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Photograph and log failed joints across the estate
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
- Act on the first split you see at a shower tray
Any failure in our workmanship within the 12-month guarantee is ours to put right. After that, a routine look catches failing joints early.
A few failed joints can be resealed with hardly any disruption. Left until every washroom is affected, it becomes a bigger programme and more closures to manage.
Wet areas in Aird Tong’s workplaces
With the shore within about 1 mile, Aird Tong counts as a coastal location, and coastal hotels, guest houses and holiday sites tend to fill up in the busy months. Bathrooms turned round daily in the busy months need sound, cleanable joints, so we plan the work for quieter weeks where possible. For an island location such as Aird Tong, work is planned around ferry crossings and the weather. Knowing how many washrooms there are lets us plan the days on the island.
Around Aird Tong, washroom joints are resealed by removing the old silicone completely and laying anti-mould sanitary silicone on dry surfaces.

What happens if it’s left?
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. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Early resealing prevents it.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.

FAQs: Aird Tong
Will all the washrooms in our Aird Tong building be closed at once?
Normally only some of them, for a short time. We work in phases so other facilities stay open. We will tell you the curing time for the product before we start.
Will you travel to Aird Tong on the island?
Yes, Aird Tong is within the area we cover. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. We group island work where we can and plan around the crossings.
Is old silicone taken out first?
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.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?
Usually not. Mould grows into the sealant itself, so it comes back however often it’s cleaned. Replacing the bead is the lasting answer.
Is colour matching possible?
It depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
Which silicone is right for commercial washrooms?
An anti-mould sanitary silicone in most cases. Neutral-cure grades are used where acetoxy types could mark metals, stone or mirror backings.
Common problems we fix in Aird Tong
Cubicle panels, IPS panels and vanity units flex when people lean on them or doors are slammed and trays shift slightly with each user. If the joint wasn’t laid to take that movement, it tears or peels away.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops
- Discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans
- Sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling
- Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
On a healthcare site such as Western Isles Hospital, 2.6 miles to the south-west of Aird Tong, washroom work starts with the infection-control team’s sign-off.
