How the job changes by surface
Showers and trays
Shower trays move under foot and are wet all day. Tray perimeters are a frequent source of leaks.
IPS and cubicle panels
Panels flex slightly in use so the bead needs to cope with it. We check fixings before sealing.
Looking after the joints
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Report split joints at trays and basins early
- Mention any site permits or estates rules at quote stage
- Report faulty extraction promptly
- Note failing joints building by building
If a joint we sealed fails within 12 months, tell us and we’ll look at it. Beyond that, regular checks keep small problems small.
A few failed joints can be resealed with hardly any disruption. Left until every washroom is affected, it becomes a bigger programme with more phasing to plan.

What else we do in An Tairbeart
Keeping An Tairbeart washrooms open while we work
With the shore within about 2 miles, An Tairbeart counts as a coastal location, and seaside hospitality typically has a peak season that works washrooms hard. Washrooms used guest after guest wear their sanitary silicone faster, so resealing in the quieter months keeps rooms ready. A 2-mile radius around An Tairbeart takes in a number of hotels. Behind every hotel door there’s a bathroom whose sealant will need renewing sooner or later.
For a hall at a building such as Ballyhennan Church, resealing the kitchen and toilets can be fitted between bookings. En suites at hotels like Tarbet Hotel, less than half a mile south-west of An Tairbeart, are cleaned daily, which wears silicone over time.

On site: what to expect
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself normally takes half a day to a day per washroom, depending on the number of fittings, and we clear our waste as we work. Travel to smaller Scottish places like An Tairbeart is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, so photos, sizes and a full list matter. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- We start by inspecting the fittings and joints and flagging problems sealant can’t solve.
- A phasing plan keeps part of the building’s facilities in use at all times.
- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- A bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone goes in and is tooled to a smooth, cleanable profile.
- Rooms reopen after the product’s cure time, and we move to the next.
Before we start on site
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
Getting a fixed quote
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.

FAQs: An Tairbeart
Will all the washrooms in our An Tairbeart building be closed at once?
Rarely all at once: work is phased so some facilities are always available. Sanitary silicone needs time to cure before the area is used, and we will tell you how long for the product used.
Does a hotel in An Tairbeart need to shut while its sealant is renewed?
In the majority of cases no closure is needed: we work room by room or floor by floor. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.
How long do sealant joints last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Do you guarantee washroom sealing?
Our workmanship has a 12-month guarantee, and we carry public liability insurance.
Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?
Not for long. Mould grows into the sealant itself so cleaning only lightens it for a while. Replacement is the lasting fix.
Do you cover An Tairbeart?
Yes. An Tairbeart falls within our area, and the simplest way to start is to call 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
What do you charge?
Each job is quoted on its own details. To get one, phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with a description of the work.
Leave it or put it right?
Bleaching black sealant may lighten it for a few days, but the mould is rooted in the silicone and comes back. A full reseal deals with it and cleaners stop fighting a losing battle. Renewing every failing joint on one visit is the sensible approach for a place like An Tairbeart. Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
