Washroom sealing for East Craigs sites
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- A dripping waste or valve behind a panel
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
- Hollow tiles or loose panels behind the joint
If you are not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Kitchens and tea points
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Urinals and WCs
- Vanity units and basins
Washroom sealing in East Craigs, done properly
Closing all the facilities in a building isn’t an option. We phase the work one washroom, one bank of cubicles or one changing room at a time, so there are always facilities in use. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. If you’re dealing with resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed and discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans, we can put it right. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in East Craigs from the first photographs to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
Shops and offices at the foot of tenement blocks in Scottish cities often have compact staff washrooms and tea points. Compact, poorly ventilated rooms are hard on sealant, so it’s worth resealing before it spreads.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and the quote explains what it covers.

Keeping East Craigs washrooms open while we work
East Craigs is within about 2 miles of the coast, 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 we plan the work for quieter weeks where possible. A 2-mile radius around East Craigs takes in plenty of 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.
On an industrial estate such as West Craigs Industrial Estate, which lies south-west of East Craigs, staff toilets, showers and canteens are where sanitary sealant takes the most wear. For centre management at a site such as The Gyle Shopping Centre, which lies south of East Craigs, washroom work is planned around footfall. Toilets at colleges like Edinburgh College - Sighthill Campus, 1.8 miles south-east of East Craigs, take heavy use from students and staff alike.
East Craigs is about 4 miles west of Edinburgh, in Edinburgh. If you’re looking for washroom sealing in East Craigs, we can help, as we do across Edinburgh. East Craigs is one of 174 places in Edinburgh on our list.
We take on washrooms and wet areas across the EH12 and EH4 postcode area, whatever the building. If your site is on Niven Road, Craigs Road and Maybury Road or close by, send details and we’ll quote for washrooms and wet areas. Sites close to East Craigs are covered too, including Bughtlin (1 mile north), West Craigs (1 mile south-west), Maybury (1 mile south), Cammo (1 mile north) and Barnton (1 mile north).

What’s near East Craigs
The nearest railway station is Edinburgh Gateway station, roughly 0.7 miles south-west of the centre. Well-known places in the area include Craigcrook Castle (1.7 miles east) and Corstorphine Hospital (1.5 miles east). Green spaces nearby include Corstorphine Hill and Dundas Loch.
Owners, agents and contractors
We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
Keeping the joints sound
After handover, a little attention goes a long way:
- Make sure washroom ventilation is running
- Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently
- Share your site rules when you send details
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
Ask your cleaning team to use gentle products and soft cloths on sealant. Strong acids, solvents and scourers wear the surface over time.
Mould in a joint spreads along the bead and into nearby grout, and complaints follow. Replacing it early keeps the job to a reseal.
What sets the cost
Before we quote, we look at:
- Distance, for remote addresses
- The product specified
- How much there is to seal
- Any access equipment needed
A quote for washrooms and wet areas depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Ask us for a fixed quote.
Details that help us quote
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Any specification or named product
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
The quickest route to a quote is a few photos and the site postcode. Upload them with the quote form, or call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form if you’d rather talk the job through.
Why deal with it now?
When a washroom looks worn, a refit isn’t the only answer. Where tiles, panels and fittings are sound, new sealant may be enough to put it right for now. Scottish city buildings take plenty of rain, so a split or hardened joint lets water into the wall. Resealing promptly protects the stone and the interior.
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

East Craigs: questions and answers
Can you work on a hospital site such as Spire Murrayfield Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Could you schedule work at a campus like Edinburgh Napier University - Sighthill Campus for the vacation?
Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we will plan the work around them. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
How do I request a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call 01277 525 020 or email the details over. Include photos or drawings if you have them.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
How much does the work cost?
It depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we will price it properly.
What guarantee comes with washroom resealing?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we carry public liability insurance.
How do you choose the sealant?
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.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
We follow your site rules from the start: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. 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. University, hospital and office estates in Scotland’s cities have their own permits, inductions and sign-in rules. Tell us the rules and we will work to them.
- We inspect each washroom and record the joints to be resealed.
- The fixed quote sets out the rooms, the products and the phasing.
- Old sealant is removed completely and the faces cleaned.
- Each joint is cleaned and left dry.
- A sanitary silicone bead is laid and given a smooth tooled finish.
- Each area is handed back when ready.
What we need from you
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
