About our washroom sealing in Diuranais
Since 2005 we have resealed commercial washrooms for facilities teams, contractors and building owners. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with CSCS-carded applicators. There is public liability insurance behind every job. Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. Most enquiries involve sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling and washrooms that look worn because of the sealant, across vanity units and basins, showers, trays and wet room floors and kitchens and tea points. Most enquiries from Diuranais start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
Hospitality around smaller Scottish places like Diuranais tends to be seasonal, and resealing washrooms in the quieter months keeps rooms available when they’re needed.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

When it isn’t the sealant
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll say what we think.

When to call us in Diuranais
Washrooms are warm, damp and full of organic residue, and silicone joints hold onto all three. Anti-mould additives help, but in a poorly ventilated room mould can still take hold eventually.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Sealant stained black around basins and showers
- Sealant lifting along a tray edge
- Complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms
- Sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling
Around Diuranais, washroom joints are resealed by removing the old silicone completely and laying anti-mould sanitary silicone on dry surfaces.

Why deal with it now?
Leaving the job until a shutdown often means living with it for months. Phasing lets it happen now, with facilities kept in use. Around smaller places like Diuranais, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, giving water time to get in. Early resealing prevents it.
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Toilets, showers and kitchens around Diuranais
The sea is no more than about 1 mile from Diuranais, and coastal places often have hotels, guest houses and holiday accommodation with busy seasons. Bathrooms turned round daily in the busy months need sound, cleanable joints, so resealing in the quieter months keeps rooms ready. Being in the west of Scotland, Diuranais gets more rain than eastern areas. In a damp climate, washrooms that aren’t well ventilated stay wet for longer, and sealant in a room that never dries out moulds faster.
En suites at hotels like Smoo Cave Hotel (to the east of Diuranais) are cleaned daily, which wears silicone over time.
Diuranais (Gaelic: Durness) is in Highland. We cover commercial sites throughout Diuranais, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. Diuranais is one of 256 places we cover in Highland.

What else we do in Diuranais
On site: what to expect
We follow your site rules from the start: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. Once we’re cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you, and each area is checked before we leave it. Jobs near Diuranais are often grouped with others in the same area. Tell us how flexible your dates are.
- We survey each room, count the joints and note anything behind them that needs another trade.
- The phasing is agreed so there are always facilities open.
- We strip out the old bead and clean off the residue left behind.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- New sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives goes in and is tooled neat.
- Rooms reopen after the product’s cure time, and we move to the next.
Preparing the site

- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed

Advice
Questions about Diuranais
Will our hotel in Diuranais need to close for the work?
Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. The plan is built around your bookings.
Is a smaller place like Diuranais outside your area?
Not at all. Diuranais is within our area. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Do you need to see the site first?
It depends on the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Is old silicone taken out first?
The whole of the old bead is removed and the surfaces cleaned before resealing. That’s what makes the new joint last.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Will all the toilets be closed at once?
We phase it so users always have somewhere to go. One washroom, one bank of cubicles or one changing room is done at a time around your site hours and access windows.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas
To price the job, we consider:
- How accessible the joints are
- Working within restricted access windows
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Joint width, depth and condition
The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.
What to include in your enquiry
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- Any specification or named product
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- Your programme or deadline
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
