About our washroom sealing in Dufftown
Not every silicone belongs in a washroom. Sanitary grades carry anti-mould additives, and neutral-cure versions avoid the damage acetoxy types can do to some metals, stone and mirror backings. Where food contact is possible, we use a hygienic, food-safe grade. We work on IPS panels and cubicles, vanity units and basins and urinals and WCs, and the failures we are asked to look at most are open joints along basins and vanity units and stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Dufftown is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Travel to smaller places like Dufftown is planned so the work is finished on one visit. Send photos and a room list and we’ll give a fixed quote.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Commercial washrooms in Dufftown
A 2-mile radius around Dufftown takes in several hotels. En suite bathrooms, staff changing rooms and kitchens all need their sanitary silicone renewed in time. We work a handful of rooms at a time, so the hotel keeps letting the rest. Dufftown is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Inside, ventilation and use decide how fast washroom sealant moulds, whatever the weather.
For a hall at a building such as St Mary of The Assumption, resealing the kitchen and toilets can be fitted between bookings. Healthcare estates like Stephen Cottage Hospital (less than half a mile south-east of Dufftown) expect contractors to follow their permits and cleaning rules in every washroom.

How the quote is worked out
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- How accessible the joints are
- The size and state of each joint
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
Pricing washrooms and wet areas depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Call for a quote.
Before you send an enquiry
We can often quote from photographs and a few details. It helps to include:
- The product your specification calls for
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To start the process, phone 01277 525 020 or email us.
Why deal with it now?
When a washroom looks worn, a refit isn’t the only answer. If the finishes are in good order, replacing the sealant may do much of what’s needed while bigger works are planned. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, giving water time to get in. Resealing early avoids that.
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote.

On site: what to expect
Inspect, seal, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. For a building near Dufftown, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- 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.
- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
- 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.

Advice
For managing agents and facilities managers
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your 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. Dufftown can form part of a wider programme across Moray.
How the job changes by surface
Basins and vanity tops
Natural stone tops can be marked by acetoxy silicone, so the product is chosen to suit.
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
We seal the visible joints; we don’t install or repair waterproofing below, and we will say if the trouble looks to be beneath the floor.
Questions we’re asked in Dufftown
Does a hotel in Dufftown need to shut while its sealant is renewed?
Almost never. The work is phased so most rooms stay available. The plan is built around your bookings.
Is Dufftown too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Dufftown is within our area. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Which sealant will you use?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Can you send site paperwork?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Can washrooms stay open while you work?
Only the area we are working in is closed. Each room reopens after the sealant’s cure time and we start the next.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
How long do sealant joints last?
There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
