Washroom sealing in Eddleston, 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. Give us your site hours and access windows and the phasing is planned around them. If you are dealing with shower tray joints that have opened up and urinal joints that look unhygienic, we can help, on accessible toilets and changing rooms, kitchens and tea points and urinals and WCs alike. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Eddleston is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Travel to smaller places like Eddleston is planned so the work is finished on one visit. Send photographs and a room list and we will give a fixed quote.

Owners, agents and contractors
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.
Looking after the joints
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Report split joints at trays and basins early
- Make sure washroom ventilation is running
- Squeegee showers and trays after busy periods
- Tell us about infection-control or permit rules before we quote
Any failure in our workmanship within the 12-month guarantee is ours to put right. After that, a routine look catches failing joints early.
Mould in a joint spreads along the bead and into nearby grout and users notice. Dealing with it while it’s just the sealant keeps it simple.
Commercial washrooms in Eddleston
Several hotels sit less than 2 miles from Eddleston. Each has en suites, back-of-house toilets and kitchens with sealant that moulds and splits. Rooms are done in turn so most stay available. Eddleston is in the east of Scotland, which is drier than the west. Drier weather outside doesn’t help a washroom with poor extraction, where mould gets into silicone fast.
Hotels such as Horse Shoe Inn Hotel, less than half a mile north-west of Eddleston, have en suite bathrooms where tired silicone at the bath, tray and basin is replaced room by room. Church halls and community buildings, such as those at Eddleston Parish Church, have kitchens and toilets used by many groups, and their sanitary sealant works hard. For a site such as Hay Lodge Hospital (4.1 miles south of Eddleston), sanitary joints in clinical areas need sound, cleanable sealant and a careful method.
Eddleston is about 8 miles south of Penicuik, in the Scottish Borders. We cover commercial sites throughout Eddleston. Across the Scottish Borders, 91 places are covered, Eddleston among them. There’s a separate page for Edinburgh, roughly 16 miles from Eddleston.

If your site is on Station Road, Burnside and Bellfield Road or close by, send details and we will quote for washrooms and wet areas.

When it isn’t the sealant
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We’ll tell you if the real problem is any of the following:
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
- Panel boards already damaged by water
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think.

On site: what to expect

Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, and the work usually takes half a day to a day per washroom, depending on the number of fittings. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Eddleston. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- First, the phasing is agreed so facilities stay open.
- Leaks, loose panels or damp are pointed out first.
- Failed sealant and residue are stripped out.
- The right sanitary or food-safe sealant is applied.
- We give you a reopening time for every room.
Preparing the site
- Point out any areas we must not close

How the job changes by surface
IPS and cubicle panels
Panels flex slightly in use so the bead needs to cope with it. We check fixings before sealing.
Kitchens and tea points
We plan kitchen sealing around when the kitchen is in use. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.

Eddleston: questions and answers
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Hay Lodge Hospital, something you do?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Must a hotel around Eddleston close while you work?
Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. Housekeeping and our team agree each day’s rooms.
When is resealing likely to be due?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?
Not for long. Mould grows into the sealant itself so cleaning only lightens it for a while. Replacing the bead is the lasting answer.
Do you work in hospitals, clinics and care homes?
Yes, healthcare and care settings are part of our work. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote.
Is it OK to put new silicone on top of the old?
The whole of the old bead is removed and the surfaces cleaned before resealing. That’s what makes the new joint last.
