Washroom sealing in Fauldhouse
Not every silicone belongs in a washroom. Sanitary grades carry anti-mould additives, and neutral-cure types are used where acetoxy silicone could attack some metals, stone or mirror backings. Where food contact is possible, we use a hygienic, food-safe grade. If you’re dealing with split or peeling sealant at shower trays and failed sealant behind washroom basins, we can help, whatever the surface. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Fauldhouse it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Travel to smaller places like Fauldhouse is planned so the work is finished on one visit. Send photos and a room list and we’ll give a fixed quote.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

General trades versus a specialist
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Signs you need washroom sealing in Fauldhouse
Daily commercial cleaning wears sealant faster than people expect. Harsh products, abrasive pads and pressure washing break down a joint’s surface and edges, and dirt and mould then get a foothold.
Things that usually lead to an enquiry:
- Sealant stained black around basins and showers
- Open joints at the base of cubicle panels
- Sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling
- Washrooms that look worn because of the sealant
In any commercial washroom in or near Fauldhouse, mouldy sealant is cut out rather than cleaned, and anti-mould sanitary silicone goes on clean, dry joints.

FAQs: Fauldhouse
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Tippethill House Hospital, something you do?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Must every washroom in our Fauldhouse building shut while you work?
Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. We will tell you the curing time for the product before we start.
Do you do washroom sealing in healthcare settings?
Yes. We work to your estates and infection-control requirements and any site permits, and phase the work so areas keep facilities.
Do you need to remove the old sealant?
The failed bead is always removed. New silicone won’t stick to the old, so sealing over it soon peels.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
Often, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
What sealant do you use in washrooms?
An anti-mould sanitary silicone for most washroom joints. Neutral-cure grades are used where acetoxy types could mark metals, stone or mirror backings.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
What affects the price in Fauldhouse
These are the things that shape the price:
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Any access equipment needed
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.
What to include in your enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- When you need the work done
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
Why deal with it now?
A tired washroom says a lot about how a building is run. Guests, clients, pupils and patients notice stained joints even when the room is otherwise spotless. Fresh sanitary silicone lifts a room with very little disruption. Around smaller places like Fauldhouse, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Early resealing prevents it.
The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.

When it isn’t the sealant
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We will tell you if the real problem is any of the following:
- Vanity carcasses that have swollen
- Hollow tiles or loose panels behind the joint
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will say what we think before you book.
