Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Aftercare for building managers
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:
- Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently
- Share your site rules when you send details
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
- Make sure washroom ventilation is running
Each room goes back into use only when the sealant has cured enough. You will be told when showers and basins can be used again, and it helps if signs stay up until then.
A few failed joints can be resealed with hardly any disruption. Left, it tends to become a building-wide job and more closures to manage.
Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Cadder
Not every silicone belongs in a washroom. Sanitary silicone contains additives that resist mould, and neutral-cure types are used where acetoxy silicone could attack some metals, stone or mirror backings. Where food contact is possible, we use a hygienic, food-safe grade. We work on urinals and WCs, vanity units and basins and IPS panels and cubicles, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are panel joints letting water behind and users noticing mouldy joints. Whoever orders the work in Cadder, the brief is typically the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Hotels and holiday accommodation in rural Scotland have busy and quiet seasons, and resealing washrooms in the quieter months keeps rooms available when they’re needed.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

Shower areas, wet floor edges and vanity areas all have sealant joints and we look at them as one job.
Showers and trays
Shower trays move under foot and are wet all day. Tray joints are where many washroom leaks start.
Why it’s worth doing now in Cadder
A tired washroom says a lot about how a building is run. Visitors notice black sealant before they notice much else. Resealing is a modest task with a very visible payoff. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, and for a smaller place like Cadder, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
A quote for washrooms and wet areas depends on quantities, condition and access. Ask us for a fixed quote.
Why appoint us
- Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions

For managing agents and facilities managers
Whether you’re a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
When to call us in Cadder
Sometimes the sealant fails because something behind it is moving or wet: loose fixings, a dripping trap or damp in the wall. We check for that first and say if it needs a plumber or another trade.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Split or peeling sealant at shower trays
- Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
- Stained sealant around pans and urinals
- Stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops
For an occupier at a site such as Low Moss Industrial Estate (less than half a mile east of Cadder), the canteen and welfare facilities need cleanable joints as much as any office.
Questions to ask before you book
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
Questions we’re asked in Cadder
Is a hospital such as Stobhill Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Is Cadder off your patch?
No. Places such as Cadder are covered as much as the big towns. We work across every Scottish council area. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Each site asks for different documents, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Is it OK to put new silicone on top of the old?
We always remove it. Fresh silicone can’t key to an old bead, so sealing over it soon peels.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, let us know and we’ll send them with the quote.
Will you come and look before quoting?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photos, and bigger or more complex jobs typically get a visit.
How do you choose the sealant?
The specification comes first, if there is one. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Washroom sealing in Cadder: the local picture
The west of Scotland, where Cadder is, gets more rain than the east. Where ventilation is poor, damp washrooms here tend to see black mould in the sealant sooner.
At a college such as New College Lanarkshire - Kirkintilloch Campus (2.7 miles north-east of Cadder), washroom and kitchen sealant is best renewed in the holidays or in phases during term. Where you are responsible for a hall attached to a building such as Cadder Parish Church, its kitchen and toilets need sealant that stays cleanable.
