Common questions from Crossford clients
Would you work within a site like William Smellie Memorial Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Will all the washrooms in our Crossford building be closed at once?
Normally only some of them, for a short time. We work in phases so other facilities stay open. We’ll tell you the curing time for the product before we start.
Will all the toilets be closed at once?
Only the area we are working in is closed. Rooms go back into use once the sealant has cured, then we move on.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, and you deal with one contact throughout.
What do you charge?
There isn’t a price list, because every site is different. Send photos or drawings and we will price it at a fixed figure.
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 if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we’ll price the work to it.
Washroom sealing in Crossford
Whether it’s a single toilet block in Crossford or a programme across several buildings, the route is the same: details first, then a fixed quote, then the work, then the 12-month guarantee. Photos and a rough count of basins, urinals, showers and cubicles help us give a quick quote and a site visit is an option. If you have resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed and urinal joints that look unhygienic, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Crossford, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Hospitality around smaller Scottish places like Crossford tends to be seasonal, so washroom work is often best planned for quieter months.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: 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 Crossford
We often find acrylic caulk or general-purpose sealant in joints that should have sanitary silicone. They don’t stand up to constant water, and they stain, crack or wash out.
Clients normally get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Split or peeling sealant at shower trays
- A new bead over an old one coming away
- Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
- Failed sealant behind washroom basins
Halls linked to places like Crossford Church host groups all week, which is hard on kitchen and toilet sealant.
Before you book anyone
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- Proof of insurance
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchens and tea points
Kitchen joints need to be smooth and sealed so they can be cleaned properly. Where food contact is possible, we use a hygienic, food-safe sealant.
Showers and trays
A tray flexes every time it’s used and is constantly wet. Tray perimeters are a frequent source of leaks.
When to bring in a specialist
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Keeping Crossford washrooms open while we work
Being in the east of Scotland, Crossford gets less rain than the west coast. Mould in sanitary sealant comes down to ventilation and use more than the weather outside.
At a hospital like William Smellie Memorial Hospital, 3.3 miles south-east of Crossford, patient and staff washrooms are best done in short phases agreed with the ward. Hotels such as Tillietudlem Hotel (under half a mile west of Crossford) have en suite bathrooms where tired silicone at the bath, tray and basin is replaced room by room.

Related advice
What happens if it’s left?
Sealing on top of old silicone saves nothing. It doesn’t bond, so it peels and traps dirt behind it. Full removal and proper cleaning is what makes the new joint last. Renewing every failing joint on one visit is the sensible approach for a place like Crossford. Send photos and we will quote for everything together.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.
