What we can’t put right
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Leaks through tanking or membranes below the finishes
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
- Hollow tiles or loose panels behind the joint
If you’re not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Vanity units and basins
- Urinals and WCs
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Kitchens and tea points
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
Washroom sealing in Auchenhowie, done properly
Accessible WCs, showers and changing areas have their own pinch points: wet-floor edges, tray perimeters, basin tops and the line where flooring meets the wall. An open joint there lets water track under flooring or behind wall panels, so we look at them closely. If you have black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift and open joints at the base of cubicle panels, we can help, whatever the surface. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Auchenhowie tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
For washroom work around Auchenhowie, we plan so every room on the list is done in one trip where possible. Send photographs and a room list and we will give a fixed quote.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

How the job changes by surface
Urinals and WC pans
The joint between a pan and the floor is easy to overlook. They are checked with everything else.
Showers and trays
Shower trays move under foot and are wet all day. Tray joints are where many washroom leaks start.
Owners, agents and contractors
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
What we’re called out for in Auchenhowie
A lot of failed washroom sealant was laid over an old bead or a dirty surface. Silicone won’t adhere to a silicone bead so it peels away quickly.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Sealant stained black around basins and showers
- Washrooms that look worn because of the sealant
- Sealant lifting along a tray edge
- Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
Where you are responsible for a hall attached to a building such as St Paul’s Church, its kitchen and toilets need sealant that stays cleanable.

Common questions from Auchenhowie clients
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as University of Glasgow Garscube Campus?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Do you work in occupied care homes around Auchenhowie?
Yes, with the manager deciding the order and timing of rooms. Tell us about any infection-control or safeguarding requirements and we’ll work to them.
Is there a guarantee on the work?
Every job carries our 12-month guarantee. It applies to our workmanship, not to plumbing leaks or damp from poor ventilation.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.
How soon can the area be used again?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.
Do you use special sealant for toilets and showers?
An anti-mould sanitary silicone in the majority of cases. We use neutral-cure versions on stone, some metals and near mirrors.
Do you cover Auchenhowie?
Yes. Sites across Auchenhowie are covered, and the same phone number covers every area.
From enquiry to sign-off
Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before the next one starts.

What happens if it’s left?
A tired-looking washroom doesn’t always need a refurbishment. If the finishes are in good order, replacing the sealant may do much of what’s needed while bigger works are planned. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, and for a smaller place like Auchenhowie, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
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.
What you get with us
- Failed material removed, not covered up
- Sealing commercial buildings since 2005
