Surface by surface
IPS and cubicle panels
IPS panels and cubicle systems have joints at the wall, the floor and the worktop. They stop water reaching the panel boards.
Healthcare and care settings
Clinics, hospitals and care homes need joints that can be kept clean. We work to your estates and infection-control requirements and any permits the site uses.
Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Ballantrae
Whether it’s a single toilet block in Ballantrae or a programme across several buildings, the route is the same: details first, then a fixed quote, then the work, then the 12-month guarantee. Photos and a rough count of basins, urinals, showers and cubicles help us give a quick quote, or we can arrange a visit. Site teams most often ask us about kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean and sealant stained black around basins and showers, across showers, trays and wet room floors, accessible toilets and changing rooms and urinals and WCs. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Ballantrae, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Hospitality around smaller Scottish places like Ballantrae tends to be seasonal, so washroom work is often best planned for quieter months.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

What we can’t put right
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:
- Vanity carcasses that have swollen
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
If you’re not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Wet areas in Ballantrae’s workplaces
With the shore within about 1 mile, Ballantrae counts as a coastal location, and seaside hospitality typically has a peak season that works washrooms hard. Washrooms used guest after guest wear their sanitary silicone faster, so resealing in the quieter months keeps rooms ready. The west of Scotland, where Ballantrae is, gets more rain than the east. In a damp climate, washrooms that aren’t well ventilated stay wet for longer, and sealant in a room that never dries out moulds faster.
Washrooms near Ballantrae get the old silicone stripped out and a fresh anti-mould bead on dry joints. Halls linked to places like Ballantrae Parish Church host groups all week, which is hard on kitchen and toilet sealant.

Your questions answered
Must every washroom in our Ballantrae building shut while you work?
Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. Each area is handed back once the sealant has cured enough to use.
Is Ballantrae too far out for you?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover the whole of Scotland. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
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 checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
How soon can a washroom be used after resealing?
Cure times vary by product and temperature. Each room gets its own reopening time from us, and signs stay up until then.
Is it possible to just clean mouldy silicone?
Cleaning may lighten it, but the mould returns. We replace the sealant with an anti-mould sanitary grade and check the ventilation isn’t the cause.
Do you need to remove the old sealant?
We always remove it. Fresh silicone can’t key to an old bead, so sealing over it soon peels.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so we will ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Our process
Site rules come first: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. Once we are cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you, and each area is checked before we leave it. For work around Ballantrae, we aim for one trip, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- First, the phasing is agreed so facilities stay open.
- Leaks, loose panels or damp are pointed out first.
- Old sealant is stripped and the faces prepared.
- We reseal with the grade suited to each area.
- We give you a reopening time for every room.
Getting the site ready
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

Advice
Also in Ballantrae
Should maintenance staff do it?
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
Why deal with it now?
A tired-looking washroom doesn’t always need a refurbishment. Where tiles, panels and fittings are sound, new sealant may be enough to put it right for now. Around smaller places like Ballantrae, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, giving water time to get in. Early resealing prevents it.
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
