Washroom sealing in Auchtertyre, done properly
Since 2005 we have resealed commercial washrooms for facilities teams, contractors and building owners. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member. There is public liability insurance behind every job. Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. The enquiries we see most involve split or peeling sealant at shower trays and sealant stained black around basins and showers, across IPS panels and cubicles, accessible toilets and changing rooms and showers, trays and wet room floors. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Auchtertyre it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Around smaller places such as Auchtertyre, washrooms and kitchens are found in hotels, pubs, schools, care homes and halls. Black sealant normally can’t be cleaned, so it is removed and replaced with anti-mould sanitary silicone.
We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application.

Signs you need washroom sealing in Auchtertyre
Panels and vanity units move slightly in use and trays shift slightly with each user. If the joint wasn’t laid to take that movement, it tears or peels away.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops
- Washrooms that look worn because of the sealant
- Sealant stained black around basins and showers
- Split or peeling sealant at shower trays
Where you’re responsible for a hall attached to a building such as Lochalsh Parish Church, its kitchen and toilets need sealant that stays cleanable.
What to look for in a quote
- Their public liability cover
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- How joint depth will be controlled
- How the existing material will be dealt with
What sets the cost
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- Any access equipment needed
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Joint width, depth and condition
- The site’s rules and procedures
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.
What to include in your enquiry
We can often quote from photos and a few details. Please tell us:
- Access details, including height
- When you need the work done
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- The type of building and who uses it
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Swollen or delaminated boards behind panels or vanity tops
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
- Hollow tiles or loose panels behind the joint
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.

Work for main contractors and building owners
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Auchtertyre can form part of a wider programme across Highland.
Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
Why act early in Auchtertyre
Running fresh silicone along a failed bead hides the problem briefly. It doesn’t bond, so it peels and traps dirt behind it. Full removal and proper cleaning is what makes the new joint last. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, and for a smaller place like Auchtertyre, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
Pricing washrooms and wet areas depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.

Advice
Sanitary sealant for Auchtertyre buildings
Auchtertyre lies within about 1 mile of the sea, and places by the sea often rely on visitors, so their hotels and holiday lets see heavy seasonal use. Bathrooms turned round daily in the busy months need sound, cleanable joints, and the quieter months are the natural time to reseal. Auchtertyre is on Scotland’s wetter western side. Where ventilation is poor, damp washrooms here tend to see black mould in the sealant sooner.
For a hotel such as Balmacara Hotel, 1.5 miles west of Auchtertyre, resealing en suites a few rooms at a time keeps the rest available. Office toilets at parks like Lochalsh Business Park, under half a mile to the south-east of Auchtertyre, take steady weekday use, and mouldy silicone soon shows.
