How we handle washroom sealing in Fettercairn
When mould has spotted a silicone joint, more cleaning won’t remove it. The mould has rooted into the silicone itself so it returns whatever the cleaning regime. Only replacement gets rid of it for good. Site teams most often ask us about stained sealant around pans and urinals and failed sealant behind washroom basins, across urinals and WCs, vanity units and basins and kitchens and tea points. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Fettercairn first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
Hotels and holiday accommodation in rural Scotland have busy and quiet seasons, so washroom work is often best planned for quieter months.
We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Leave it or put it right?
Sealing on top of old silicone saves nothing. Silicone won’t grip silicone, so it lifts and holds moisture underneath. Cutting out completely and cleaning back takes a little longer and lasts. Around smaller places like Fettercairn, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Early resealing prevents it.
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.

Maintenance after handover
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Act on the first split you see at a shower tray
- Make sure washroom ventilation is running
- Tell us about infection-control or permit rules before we quote
- Respect the cure time before reopening each room
Ventilation is half the battle. Constant damp lets mould take hold even on anti-mould grades, so get faulty extract looked at.
Inspectors look at whether kitchen surfaces can be kept clean. Resealing sinks, worktops and splashbacks before an inspection is a simple step.

Wet areas in Fettercairn’s workplaces
Being in the east of Scotland, Fettercairn gets less rain than the west coast. Inside, ventilation and use decide how fast washroom sealant moulds, whatever the weather.
Church halls and community buildings, such as those at Fettercairn Parish Church, have kitchens and toilets used by many groups, and their sanitary sealant works hard. For a hotel such as Ramsay Arms Hotel (less than half a mile south-west of Fettercairn), resealing en suites a few rooms at a time keeps the rest available. On a healthcare site such as Stracathro Hospital, which lies south of Fettercairn, washroom work starts with the infection-control team’s sign-off.

Related advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Changing rooms and gyms
Gym and leisure changing rooms see showers running most of the day so sealant there works very hard. Anti-mould sanitary silicone is the standard choice.
Kitchens and tea points
Kitchen joints need to be smooth and sealed so they can be cleaned properly. Food-safe sealants are used where food may touch the joint.
Common questions from Fettercairn clients
Must every washroom in our Fettercairn 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.
Can you work on a hospital site such as Stracathro Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Which sealant will you use?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
That depends on the product. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
