Your questions answered
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Ross Memorial Hospital, something you do?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is Evanton too far out for you?
Not at all. Evanton is within our area. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
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 work stops until any suspect material has been tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
Which silicone is right for commercial washrooms?
It depends on the joint. Washrooms and showers take anti-mould sanitary silicone, and food areas take a hygienic, food-safe sealant where food contact is possible.
Do you need to see the site first?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a visit before quoting.
Do you phase washroom resealing?
The work is phased so there are always facilities open. One washroom, one bank of cubicles or one changing room is done at a time. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
Washroom sealing in Evanton
Accessible toilets, shower rooms and changing rooms have joints that work harder than most: wet-floor edges, tray perimeters, basin tops and the line where flooring meets the wall. An open joint there lets water track under flooring or behind wall panels, so we look at them closely. If you’re dealing with panel joints letting water behind and users noticing mouldy joints, we can help. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Evanton tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
In smaller Scottish places like Evanton, commercial washrooms are typically in hotels, pubs, schools, care homes and community halls. Mould grows into sealant in any wet room that doesn’t dry out, and the answer is removal and a fresh bead of anti-mould silicone.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will come back to it.

Our process
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work normally takes between a morning and a week or so, set by the number of rooms and the phasing you need, and we clear our waste as we work. For a building near Evanton, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- We agree which washrooms close and when.
- Anything behind the joints that needs another trade is flagged.
- Failed sealant and residue are stripped out.
- We reseal with the grade suited to each area.
- We give you a reopening time for every room.
What we need from you
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

Common problems we fix in Evanton
Daily commercial cleaning wears sealant faster than people expect. Strong chemicals, scourers and jet washing roughen, discolour or lift a bead so grime sticks to the damaged surface.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Washrooms that look worn because of the sealant
- Gaps where vanity tops meet the wall
- A new bead over an old one coming away
- Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
At a hotel such as Novar Arms Hotel, less than half a mile south-east of Evanton, the quieter weeks are the time to reseal bathrooms.

After the work
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Clean sealant with gentle products and a soft cloth
- Keep washrooms out of use until we say the sealant has cured
- Include joints in routine washroom inspections
- Make sure washroom ventilation is running
Include sealant joints in your planned maintenance checks. Look for black spotting, cracks, peeling edges and gaps at the busiest fittings and log what you find.
A split joint at a shower tray can leak for a long time before anyone sees it. By then, other trades may be needed as well so failed joints are worth acting on quickly.
Busy facilities in and around Evanton
Evanton sits close to the coast, within about 2 miles, and coastal hotels, guest houses and holiday sites tend to fill up in the busy months. Bathrooms turned round daily in the busy months need sound, cleanable joints, which is why off-season resealing makes sense. The west of Scotland, where Evanton is, gets more rain than the east. Where ventilation is poor, damp washrooms here tend to see black mould in the sealant sooner.
For an occupier at a site such as Highland Deephaven Industrial Estate, 1 mile east of Evanton, the canteen and welfare facilities need cleanable joints as much as any office. Clinical washrooms at sites like Ross Memorial Hospital (5.6 miles south-west of Evanton) are scheduled with the ward so the room is out of use for as little time as possible.

Doing it in-house
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Leave it or put it right?
Open or mouldy joints are hard to keep hygienic, and in kitchens, clinics and schools that is a real concern. A smooth, sealed joint can be cleaned properly. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, so it’s worth renewing joints around Evanton before they leak.
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.
