About our washroom sealing in Ashton
Since 2005 we have resealed commercial washrooms for facilities teams, contractors and building owners. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with CSCS-carded applicators. There is public liability insurance behind every job. Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. Site teams most often ask us about urinal joints that look unhygienic and complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms, across showers, trays and wet room floors, kitchens and tea points and IPS panels and cubicles. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Ashton tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Hospitality around smaller Scottish places like Ashton tends to be seasonal, so washroom work is often best planned for quieter months.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Questions we are asked in Ashton
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Inverclyde Royal Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Is Ashton off your patch?
Not at all. Ashton is within our area. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
What sealant do you use in washrooms?
An anti-mould sanitary silicone in the majority of cases. Neutral-cure grades are used where acetoxy types could mark metals, stone or mirror backings.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Do you do washroom sealing in healthcare settings?
Yes, healthcare and care settings are part of our work. Any records you need are confirmed with the quote.
Will you quote for a small job?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
How much does the work cost?
That depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we will price it properly.

What we can’t put right
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- A room that stays damp because ventilation isn’t working
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
- Leaks through tanking or membranes below the finishes
If you are not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Urinals and WCs
- Kitchens and tea points
- Vanity units and basins
- IPS panels and cubicles
Why it’s worth doing now in Ashton
Waiting for a holiday closure can leave failing joints in place for a long time. With phasing, the work can go ahead while most facilities stay open. For buildings near Ashton, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Send photographs and we will quote for everything together.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.

How a job runs
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Where we can, we combine work around Ashton with other jobs nearby. Let us know if your dates have any give.
- Every washroom is checked joint by joint, with loose panels, leaks or damp noted for the right trade.
- We agree which rooms close and when, so users always have somewhere to go.
- We strip out the old bead and clean off the residue left behind.
- Each joint is degreased and left dry, because silicone won’t bond to damp or soapy surfaces.
- A bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone goes in and is tooled to a smooth, cleanable profile.
- You get a reopening time for every room, with signage left up until then.
Getting the site ready
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

Doing it in-house
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Commercial washrooms in Ashton
Ashton lies within about 1 mile of the sea, and coastal places often have hotels, guest houses and holiday accommodation with busy seasons. Showers and en suites in constant use are where silicone moulds and splits first, so resealing in the quieter months keeps rooms ready. The west of Scotland, where Ashton is, gets more rain than the east. Damp air means a poorly ventilated washroom rarely dries out fully, which is when mould gets into the sealant.
For a site such as Inverclyde Royal Hospital (0.9 miles south-east of Ashton), sanitary joints in clinical areas need sound, cleanable sealant and a careful method. Pupil toilets at schools like Gourock High School take heavy daily use, and the holidays give the window to reseal.
Ashton is about 2 miles west of Greenock, in Inverclyde. Across the PA19 postcode area, it works the same way: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee.

Signs you need washroom sealing in Ashton
Warmth, moisture and soap residue are exactly what mould needs, and sealant joints trap all three. Anti-mould additives help, but in a poorly ventilated room mould can still take hold eventually.
Clients normally get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Open joints at the base of cubicle panels
- Failed sealant behind washroom basins
- Mould spotting along silicone joints
- Sealant lifting along a tray edge
En suites at hotels like Spinnaker Hotel, under half a mile north of Ashton, are cleaned daily, which wears silicone over time.
