Your questions answered
What paperwork can you provide for a job in Ardbeg?
RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we’ll confirm it with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
Must every washroom in our Ardbeg building shut while you work?
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 all the toilets be closed at once?
Only the area we’re working in is closed. Each room reopens after the sealant’s cure time and we start the next.
Is any job too small?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
What sealant do you use in washrooms?
Each area gets the grade that suits it. Most washroom joints take sanitary silicone, and food areas take a hygienic, food-safe sealant where food contact is possible.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
How long will the new sealant last?
There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Washroom sealing in Ardbeg, done properly
Closing all the facilities in a building isn’t an option. We phase the work one washroom, one bank of cubicles or one changing room at a time, so staff, guests or pupils always have somewhere to go. Give us your site hours and access windows and the phasing is planned around them. Most enquiries involve open joints at the base of cubicle panels and resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed, on accessible toilets and changing rooms, IPS panels and cubicles and kitchens and tea points. Most enquiries from Ardbeg start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
For washroom work around Ardbeg, we plan so every room on the list is done in one trip where possible. Photos of each washroom and a count of rooms help us quote and plan.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Why deal with it now?
Gaps and mould in joints give dirt and bacteria somewhere to sit which matters most in healthcare, food and education settings. Sound, smooth joints are much easier to keep clean. 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. Resealing early avoids that.
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
What you get with us
- Colour options checked against the specified product
- A range of standard colours, depending on the product
- Our applicators hold CSCS cards
- A fixed quote before work starts

Keeping Ardbeg washrooms open while we work
With the shore within about 1 mile, Ardbeg counts as a coastal location, and coastal places often have hotels, guest houses and holiday accommodation with busy seasons. Bathrooms turned round daily in the busy months need sound, cleanable joints, so we plan the work for quieter weeks where possible. Being in the west of Scotland, Ardbeg gets more rain than eastern areas. Where ventilation is poor, damp washrooms here tend to see black mould in the sealant sooner.
Washrooms near Ardbeg get the old silicone stripped out and a fresh anti-mould bead on dry joints. For buildings around Ardbeg, washrooms can be done in phases so some facilities are always open.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Where we can, we combine work around Ardbeg with other jobs nearby. Tell us how flexible your dates are.
- We survey each room, count the joints and note anything behind them that needs another trade.
- A phasing plan keeps part of the building’s facilities in use at all times.
- We strip out the old bead and clean off the residue left behind.
- 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.
- You get a reopening time for every room, with signage left up until then.
What we need from you
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Urinals and WC pans
The joint between a pan and the floor is easy to overlook. We include them in the survey.
Changing rooms and gyms
Changing rooms in gyms and leisure centres stay wet and warm, so mould is a constant battle. Anti-mould sanitary silicone is the standard choice.
What sealant work can’t fix
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- Vanity carcasses that have swollen
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
- Condensation from failed extract fans
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
