Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Craigie
When mould has spotted a silicone joint, more cleaning won’t remove it. The mould has rooted into the silicone itself so it returns whatever the cleaning regime. Only replacement gets rid of it for good. If you have kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean and stained sealant around pans and urinals, we can put it right, on accessible toilets and changing rooms, IPS panels and cubicles and kitchens and tea points alike. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Craigie, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Hospitality around smaller Scottish places like Craigie tends to be seasonal, so washroom work is often best planned for quieter months.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Should maintenance staff do it?
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
How the job changes by surface
Healthcare and care settings
Clinics, hospitals and care homes need joints that can be kept clean. Your infection-control and estates rules are followed as well as site permits.
IPS and cubicle panels
Panels flex slightly in use so the bead needs to cope with it. Loose panels are flagged before any sealant goes on.
When to call us in Craigie
We often find acrylic caulk or general-purpose sealant in joints that should have sanitary silicone. They aren’t made for constant wetting, and they stain, crack or wash out.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean
- Complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms
- Shower tray joints that have opened up
- Stained sealant around pans and urinals
Staff changing rooms and patient toilets at places like Kirklandside Hospital, 2.6 miles north of Craigie, need cleanable, sound silicone.
What your quote should include
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Who will actually carry out the work
- Proof of insurance
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee

What else we do in Craigie
Honest limits
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
- Leaks through tanking or membranes below the finishes
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
If you are not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Vanity units and basins

Sanitary sealant for Craigie buildings
Being in the west of Scotland, Craigie gets more rain than eastern areas. Damp air means a poorly ventilated washroom rarely dries out fully, which is when mould gets into the sealant.
Halls linked to places like Craigie Parish Church host groups all week, which is hard on kitchen and toilet sealant.

- A phasing plan keeps part of the building’s facilities in use at all times.
- We strip out the old bead and clean off the residue left behind.
- Joints are cleaned, degreased and dried before sealing.
- New sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives goes in and is tooled neat.

Questions about Craigie
Is a smaller place like Craigie outside your area?
No. Places such as Craigie are covered as much as the big towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Is a hospital such as Kirklandside Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
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 if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
Do you work in hospitals, clinics and care homes?
We do. Your infection-control rules, estates requirements and permits are followed. The work is phased around patients or residents.
How long do sealant joints last?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
Is there a guarantee on the work?
Our workmanship has a 12-month guarantee, and we carry public liability insurance.
Do you need to remove the old sealant?
We always remove it. New silicone won’t stick to the old, so sealing over it soon peels.
