Questions we are asked in Donside Village
Can you work on a hospital site such as Royal Cornhill Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Must a hotel around Donside Village close while you work?
In most cases no closure is needed: we work room by room or floor by floor. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.
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 a bead over the top fails quickly.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, with one point of contact across South East England, Greater London and Scotland.
Which sealant will you use?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
Do you work in Donside Village?
Yes. We cover Donside Village and the rest of Aberdeen. To discuss a job, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.
How we handle washroom sealing in Donside Village
Our washroom work covers offices, hotels, schools and colleges, leisure centres and gyms, clinics and care homes, along with staff kitchens and tea points. The products and the method are chosen for how heavily each space is used. Site teams most often ask us about open joints along basins and vanity units and stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops, on showers, trays and wet room floors, urinals and WCs and vanity units and basins. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Donside Village first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
City hotels, restaurants and bars in Scotland need washrooms that look cared for and kitchens that clean easily. We use anti-mould silicone in washrooms and food-safe hygienic sealant at kitchen worktops.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

On site: what to expect
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. University, hospital and office estates in Scotland’s cities have their own permits, inductions and sign-in rules. Tell us the rules and we’ll work to them.
- We agree which washrooms close and when.
- Anything behind the joints that needs another trade is flagged.
- Old sealant is stripped and the faces prepared.
- We reseal with the grade suited to each area.
- We give you a reopening time for every room.
Before we start on site
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints

Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
Advice
Work for main contractors and building owners
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Donside Village can form part of a wider programme.

What we are called out for in Donside Village
Daily commercial cleaning wears sealant faster than people expect. Harsh products, abrasive pads and pressure washing break down a joint’s surface and edges, and dirt and mould then get a foothold.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Open joints at the base of cubicle panels
- Shower tray joints that have opened up
- Gaps where vanity tops meet the wall
- Stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops
Office washrooms on sites such as Aberdeen Innovation Park, less than half a mile to the north of Donside Village, are in use all working day, so resealing is phased to keep some open.

Washroom sealing in Donside Village: the local picture
Donside Village is within about 2 miles of the coast, and coastal hotels, guest houses and holiday sites tend to fill up in the busy months. Heavy seasonal use is hard on shower and basin sealant, which is why off-season resealing makes sense. A 2-mile radius around Donside Village takes in a good number of hotels. Behind every hotel door there’s a bathroom whose sealant will need renewing sooner or later. We work a handful of rooms at a time, so the hotel keeps letting the rest.
Halls of residence and teaching buildings at universities such as University of Aberdeen, 0.7 miles to the south-east of Donside Village, are easiest to reseal during vacations. Staff changing rooms and patient toilets at places like Royal Cornhill Hospital (1.4 miles south of Donside Village) need cleanable, sound silicone.
Donside Village is about 1 mile north of Aberdeen, in Aberdeen. Donside Village sits inside our coverage and the rest of Aberdeen, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. 40 places across Aberdeen fall within our area, including Donside Village.

Honest limits
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we are upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- Panel boards already damaged by water
- Leaks through tanking or membranes below the finishes
- Loose panels, vanity units or tiles, which need fixing first
If you are not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Vanity units and basins
- Urinals and WCs
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Kitchens and tea points
How the job changes by surface
IPS and cubicle panels
Panels flex slightly in use, so the sealant has to take that movement. Loose panels are flagged before any sealant goes on.
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
Floor edges in wet areas are where water most often escapes. We reseal the floor-to-wall junctions and around drains where sealant is used.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
