About our washroom sealing in Balemartine

Closing all the facilities in a building isn’t an option. Work is phased by room or by section, so there are always facilities in use. Give us your site hours and access windows and the phasing is planned around them. We work on urinals and WCs, accessible toilets and changing rooms and kitchens and tea points, and what we’re called in for most is open joints at the base of cubicle panels and stained sealant around pans and urinals. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Balemartine it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

Hotels and holiday accommodation in rural Scotland have busy and quiet seasons, so washroom work is often best planned for quieter months.

Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Balemartine as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Do you need washroom sealing in Balemartine?

Commercial cleaning is harder on sealant than everyday use. Harsh products, abrasive pads and pressure washing break down a joint’s surface and edges, and dirt and mould then get a foothold.

Common reasons buildings call us in:

  • Sealant lifting along a tray edge
  • Stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops
  • Sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling
  • Open joints at the base of cubicle panels

Washrooms near Balemartine get the old silicone stripped out and a fresh anti-mould bead on dry joints.

Questions to ask before you book

  • What site paperwork they can supply
  • Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
  • How joint depth will be controlled
  • How they’ll work around occupants

Our contractor checklist

What sets the cost

Before we quote, we look at:

  • How much existing material needs removing
  • Any access equipment needed
  • The size and state of each joint
  • How much there is to seal

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.

Details that help us quote

There’s no need for a formal survey. A few details are enough to get going:

  • Where the site is, with the postcode
  • Access details, including height
  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older
  • The type of building and who uses it

The quickest route to a quote is a few photographs and the site postcode. Send them through the quote form, or give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings if you’d rather talk the job through.

Keeping Balemartine washrooms open while we work

Balemartine sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile, and seaside hospitality typically has a peak season that works washrooms hard. Heavy seasonal use is hard on shower and basin sealant, so we plan the work for quieter weeks where possible. Balemartine is on Scotland’s wetter western side. Damp air means a poorly ventilated washroom rarely dries out fully, which is when mould gets into the sealant.

Phased work lets washrooms in and around Balemartine stay partly open while sealant is renewed.

Balemartine is in Argyll and Bute. Commercial clients in Balemartine can call on us for washrooms and wet areas, as part of our coverage of Argyll and Bute. 124 places across Argyll and Bute fall within our area, Balemartine among them.

Anyone looking for washroom sealing in PA77 gets the same process as the rest of our area: details, then a fixed price, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Access to Balemartine is via the B8066, so getting applicators and materials to site is simple. Just outside Balemartine, we also work in Balephuil (1 mile west), Crossapol (2 miles north-east), Scarinish (5 miles north-east), Arinagour (18 miles north-east) and Baile Mòr (21 miles south-east). Island and remote sites need extra planning, with travel, ferry crossings where needed and weather to allow for, so mention the location when you give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

Doing it in-house

Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.

There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

Your questions answered

Which documents can you supply for work in Balemartine?

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.

Is a smaller place like Balemartine outside your area?

No. Places such as Balemartine are covered as much as the big towns. Every Scottish council area is within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Can weather delay the job?

It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.

How soon can a washroom be used after resealing?

Each sealant has a cure time before it should get wet. Phasing is planned with the cure time in mind so there are always rooms open.

Will you quote for a small job?

We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.

What will the job cost?

Each job is quoted on its own details. To get one, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with a description of the work.

What’s the quickest route to a quote?

It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photos and a postcode.

From enquiry to sign-off

On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself normally taking between a morning and a week or so, set by the number of rooms and the phasing you need. Jobs near Balemartine are often grouped with others in the same area. Tell us how flexible your dates are.

  1. We inspect each washroom and record the joints to be resealed.
  2. You get a fixed quote with the phasing plan.
  3. Old sealant is removed completely and the faces cleaned.
  4. Joints are degreased and dried.
  5. A sanitary silicone bead is laid and given a smooth tooled finish.
  6. Each area is handed back when ready.

Before we start on site

  • For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
  • Arrange parking or a loading space
  • Let building users know which areas are affected

How the job changes by surface

Showers and trays

Shower trays move under foot and are wet all day. Tray joints are where many washroom leaks start.

Kitchens and tea points

Kitchen joints need to be smooth and sealed so they can be cleaned properly. Where food contact is possible, we use a hygienic, food-safe sealant.

Commercial clients in Balemartine

For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first.

We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Sites in Balemartine can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Argyll and Bute.
