Share the site address and what’s failing, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote or arrange a visit.
What happens if it’s left?
When a washroom looks worn, a refit isn’t the only answer. Where tiles, panels and fittings are sound, new sealant may be enough to put it right for now. Getting access arranged for a building in Finnieston takes time, so it makes sense to renew every failing joint while it’s in place.
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.
Why us?
- One contact handling all your sites
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
- Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available
- Sealing commercial buildings since 2005

How we handle washroom sealing in Finnieston
In a commercial washroom, sealant is usually the first thing to wear out. Around basins, urinals, cubicles, IPS panels and shower trays it takes water, soap, cleaning chemicals and knocks every day and mould that roots into it can’t be cleaned away. We strip it out and lay new anti-mould sanitary silicone. Most enquiries involve complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms and mould spotting along silicone joints, on accessible toilets and changing rooms, showers, trays and wet room floors and vanity units and basins. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Finnieston? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Hospitality businesses in Scotland’s cities rely on washrooms and kitchens that look right and clean easily. We use anti-mould silicone in washrooms and food-safe hygienic sealant at kitchen worktops.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

What the job involves on each surface
Urinals and WC pans
Urinal backs, troughs and slab joints are resealed with sanitary silicone once the whole of the old bead has gone.
Basins and vanity tops
Basin joints get wet every time someone washes their hands, so the joint to the wall and around each bowl fails early. We remove the old bead and lay a fresh one of sanitary silicone.
Finnieston: questions and answers
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as West Glasgow Ambulatory Care Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Must a hotel around Finnieston 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.
Which sealant will you use?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Can you reseal washrooms in healthcare buildings?
Yes. We work to your estates and infection-control requirements and any site permits, and phase the work so areas keep facilities.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Do you work in Finnieston?
Yes. Sites across Finnieston are covered, with one number for every area we cover.
Do you phase washroom resealing?
Just the room being resealed is out of use. Each room reopens after the sealant’s cure time, then we move on.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
Commercial washrooms in Finnieston
Finnieston has three care or nursing homes no more than 2 miles away. Assisted bathrooms and wet rooms in care settings need sanitary sealant that stays cleanable. We plan the work with the manager so residents are disturbed as little as possible. Finnieston is on Scotland’s wetter western side. Washrooms with weak extraction stay damp in this climate, and mould finds the silicone first.

Healthcare washrooms on sites such as West Glasgow Ambulatory Care Hospital (0.5 miles north-west of Finnieston) are resealed area by area, under the site’s own infection-control rules. In a centre such as West End Retail Park, 1.2 miles to the north-west of Finnieston, public washrooms are resealed a block of facilities at a time.
