About our washroom sealing in Ballater
Facilities managers, contractors and building owners have used us for washroom sealing for over 20 years. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with CSCS-carded applicators. We are fully insured. Every resealed washroom carries our 12-month guarantee. The enquiries we see most involve failed sealant behind washroom basins and shower tray joints that have opened up, on showers, trays and wet room floors, kitchens and tea points and IPS panels and cubicles. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Ballater, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Hospitality around smaller Scottish places like Ballater tends to be seasonal, so washroom work is often best planned for quieter months.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Keeping the joints sound
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:
- Clear standing water from shower floors where possible
- Keep washrooms out of use until we say the sealant has cured
- Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone
- Note failing joints building by building
Squeegeeing showers and trays after heavy use helps. Standing water on a joint all day shortens its life.
Boards behind panels and vanity tops can swell when water gets past a failed joint. Once that happens, a reseal won’t fix them.

How the job changes by surface
Urinals and WC pans
Floor joints around WC pans are often forgotten. They are checked with everything else.
IPS and cubicle panels
IPS panels and cubicle systems have joints at the wall, the floor and the worktop. Those joints protect the boards behind from water.
FAQs: Ballater
Must a hotel around Ballater close while you work?
Rarely. Rooms or floors are done in turn, so the rest of the hotel keeps trading. Housekeeping and our team agree each day’s rooms.
Is a smaller place like Ballater outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
When is resealing likely to be due?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
How much does the work cost?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. For yours, phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
Often, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited, we are a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
Washroom sealing in Ballater: the local picture
Ballater is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Drier weather outside doesn’t help a washroom with poor extraction, where mould gets into silicone fast. Plenty of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Ballater. Behind every hotel door there’s a bathroom whose sealant will need renewing sooner or later. Rooms are done in turn so most stay available.
Hotels such as Glenaden Hotel, less than half a mile south-west of Ballater, have en suite bathrooms where tired silicone at the bath, tray and basin is replaced room by room. Welfare facilities in units on estates such as Ballater Industrial Estate (to the east of Ballater) have showers, toilets and kitchens with sealant that works hard. Halls linked to places like Glenmuick Parish Church host groups all week, which is hard on kitchen and toilet sealant.

Leave it or put it right?
