How we handle washroom sealing in Coaltown of Balgonie
Closing all the facilities in a building isn’t an option. We phase the work one washroom, one bank of cubicles or one changing room at a time, so there are always facilities in use. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them. We work on kitchens and tea points, IPS panels and cubicles and urinals and WCs, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms and shower tray joints that have opened up.

Hospitality around smaller Scottish places like Coaltown of Balgonie tends to be seasonal, so washroom work is often best planned for quieter months.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

Before we quote, we look at:
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Access and working height
- Whether the work must be split into stages
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.
What to include in your enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- Any specification or named product
- The postcode of the building
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Access details, including height
To get a fixed quote, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email. Our quote form is another easy route.
Keeping the joints sound
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
- Share your site rules when you send details
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
- Clean sealant with gentle products and a soft cloth
Add washroom sealant to routine inspections. Check for mould spots, splits, lifting edges and open joints at trays, basins and urinals and photograph anything new.
Inspectors look at whether kitchen surfaces can be kept clean. Failed sealant around sinks and worktops is easy to put right in good time.
Our process
Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. For work around Coaltown of Balgonie, we aim for one trip, which is why we ask for photographs and a full list first. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- We start by inspecting the fittings and joints and flagging problems sealant can’t solve.
- We agree which rooms close and when, so users always have somewhere to go.
- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
- Joints are cleaned, degreased and dried before sealing.
- New sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives goes in and is tooled neat.
- Each room is handed back once the sealant has had its cure time.
Before we start on site
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
Quotes
Every quote starts with the facts: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
Related advice
What happens if it’s left?
A failed joint behind a basin or along a shower tray lets water run where it shouldn’t. That can lead to swollen boards, marked ceilings below and lingering smells, and fixing that takes far more work than resealing. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, so it’s worth renewing joints around Coaltown of Balgonie before they leak.
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.

Questions we are asked in Coaltown of Balgonie

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, let us know and we will send them with the quote.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Will cleaning remove black mould from sealant?
Cleaning may lighten it, but the mould returns. New anti-mould sanitary silicone is the treatment and point out if ventilation is part of the problem.
Which silicone is right for commercial washrooms?
An anti-mould sanitary silicone for most washroom joints. Neutral-cure grades are used where acetoxy types could mark metals, stone or mirror backings.
