About our washroom sealing in Buckie
Closing all the facilities in a building isn’t an option. Work is phased by room or by section, so staff, guests or pupils always have somewhere to go. Give us your site hours and access windows and the phasing is planned around them. We work on accessible toilets and changing rooms, IPS panels and cubicles and vanity units and basins, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans and resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Buckie first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Care homes and sheltered housing in a Scottish town like Buckie need washroom resealing done while keeping disruption for residents low. We agree times and rooms with the manager and work a few at a time.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Common problems we fix in Buckie
Panels and vanity units move slightly in use and trays shift slightly with each user. A bead that can’t cope with the movement splits along one edge.
Things that usually lead to an enquiry:
- Mould spotting along silicone joints
- Open joints at the base of cubicle panels
- Failed sealant behind washroom basins
- Shower tray joints that have opened up
Welfare facilities in units on estates such as March Road Industrial Estate (to the east of Buckie) have showers, toilets and kitchens with sealant that works hard.

Your questions answered
Must every washroom in our Buckie building shut while you work?
Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. We will tell you the curing time for the product before we start.
Could you schedule work at a campus like Moray College UHI - Buckie Learning Centre for the vacation?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Is it OK to put new silicone on top of the old?
The failed bead is always removed. Fresh silicone can’t key to an old bead, so sealing over it soon peels.
Do you work in hospitals, clinics and care homes?
We do. We work to your estates and infection-control requirements and any site permits, and phase the work so areas keep facilities.
How do we ask for a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step only needs photos and a postcode.
What else we do in Buckie
What the job involves on each surface
IPS and cubicle panels
A panel that has already swollen won’t be fixed by sealant and we’ll point out any we see.
Healthcare and care settings
Healthcare work is phased so wards, clinics or residents’ areas keep their facilities. Records you need can be confirmed with the quote.
Keeping the joints sound
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Share these points with them:
- Share your site rules when you send details
- Report faulty extraction promptly
- Keep a record of which washrooms need attention
- Squeegee showers and trays after busy periods
Ventilation is half the battle. A room that stays damp will grow mould on almost anything, so get faulty extract looked at.
Boards behind panels and vanity tops can swell when water gets past a failed joint. Once that happens, a reseal won’t fix them.
Honest limits
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
- Swollen or delaminated boards behind panels or vanity tops
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Urinals and WCs
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Kitchens and tea points
- Vanity units and basins
Leave it or put it right?
Open or mouldy joints are hard to keep hygienic, and in kitchens, clinics and schools that is a real concern. A smooth, sealed joint can be cleaned properly. In Buckie, rain and frost work into any failed joint, so small failures grow. Catch it early and it stays a sealant job.
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 you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.

Keeping Buckie washrooms open while we work
The sea is no more than about 1 mile from Buckie, and places by the sea often rely on visitors, so their hotels and holiday lets see heavy seasonal use. Showers and en suites in constant use are where silicone moulds and splits first, which is why off-season resealing makes sense. Buckie is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Drier weather outside doesn’t help a washroom with poor extraction, where mould gets into silicone fast.
On a healthcare site such as Seafield Hospital, 0.7 miles to the south-west of Buckie, washroom work starts with the infection-control team’s sign-off. Pupil toilets at schools like Buckie High School take heavy daily use, and the holidays give the window to reseal.
