Why deal with it now?
Washrooms shape how visitors judge a building. Visitors notice black sealant even when the room is otherwise spotless. Resealing is a modest task with a very visible payoff. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Early resealing prevents it.
A quote for washrooms and wet areas depends on quantities, condition and access, plus any specification you are working to. Call for a quote.

Washroom sealing in Ellon
Washroom joints need the right sealant, not whatever is to hand. Sanitary silicone contains additives that resist mould, and neutral-cure versions avoid the damage acetoxy types can do to some metals, stone and mirror backings. In food areas, hygienic or food-safe sealants are used where food contact is possible. The enquiries we see most involve a new bead over an old one coming away and sealant lifting along a tray edge, on urinals and WCs, accessible toilets and changing rooms and IPS panels and cubicles. Whoever orders the work in Ellon, the brief is normally the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Around smaller places such as Ellon, washrooms and kitchens are found in hotels, pubs, schools, care homes and halls. Black sealant usually can’t be cleaned, so it is removed and replaced with anti-mould sanitary silicone.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Ellon: questions and answers
Do we have to close all our washrooms in Ellon for resealing?
Rarely all at once: work is phased so some facilities are always available. Each area is handed back once the sealant has cured enough to use.
Does a hotel in Ellon 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.
How much does the work cost?
We don’t publish prices, as every site differs. With photographs or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
Do you phase washroom resealing?
Only the area we’re working in is closed. Rooms go back into use once the sealant has cured, then we move on.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call 01277 525 020 or email us. Include photos or drawings if you have them.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it.
Our process
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. While we’re working, the area stays contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Ellon is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, which is why we ask for photographs and a full list first. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- Every room is surveyed and the failed joints listed.
- You get a fixed quote with the phasing plan.
- The whole of the old bead is removed.
- Each joint is cleaned and left dry.
- New anti-mould sealant goes in and is tooled neat.
- Rooms reopen after the cure time.
What we need from you
- Agree which areas must stay open
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Send your site hours and access windows
Quotes
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.

How the job changes by surface
Healthcare and care settings
Clinics, hospitals and care homes need joints that can be kept clean. Your infection-control and estates rules are followed and any permits the site uses.
IPS and cubicle panels
Swollen or delaminated boards need replacing, and any we come across will be pointed out.
Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- Any access equipment needed
- The total length or number of joints
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Travel to remote or island sites
The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you are ready.
What we need to price the job
A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
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, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
When to bring in a specialist
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Washroom sealing around Ellon: points for this area
The area within 2 miles of Ellon holds 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. Ellon 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.
For a school such as Ellon Academy, washroom and kitchen sealant can be renewed around term dates. Office washrooms on sites such as Ellon Business Park, 0.9 miles east of Ellon, are in use all working day, so resealing is phased to keep some open. En suites at hotels like New Inn Hotel, less than half a mile to the south of Ellon, are cleaned daily, which wears silicone over time.
