About our washroom sealing in Fionnphort
Accessible WCs, showers and changing areas have their own pinch points: shower trays, wet-room floor edges, basins and floor-to-wall junctions. An open joint there lets water track under flooring or behind wall panels so they get particular attention. If you have failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen and washrooms that look worn because of the sealant, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Fionnphort tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
For washroom work around Fionnphort, we plan so every room on the list is done in one trip where possible. Send photos and a room list and we will give a fixed quote.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Keeping the joints sound
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Tell us about infection-control or permit rules before we quote
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
- Add sealant joints to planned maintenance checks
- Clear standing water from shower floors where possible
Squeegeeing showers and trays after heavy use helps. Standing water on a joint all day shortens its life.
Water getting behind IPS panels and vanity units can swell the boards. After that, those parts need replacing rather than resealing.
FAQs: Fionnphort
Which documents can you supply for work in Fionnphort?
RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we will confirm it with the quote. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
Must every washroom in our Fionnphort 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 cover Fionnphort?
Yes. Fionnphort falls within our area, and you can phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form to get started.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
It depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we will confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.
Is any job too small?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, which many sites require.
Quoting for work in Fionnphort
Before we quote, we look at:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Any access equipment needed
- How much there is to seal
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
Details that help us quote
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- The site address and postcode
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- What the building is and how it’s used
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
What we’re called out for in Fionnphort
Panels and vanity units move slightly in use and trays shift slightly with each user. A bead that can’t cope with the movement splits along one edge.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
- Sealant stained black around basins and showers
- Washrooms that look worn because of the sealant
- Urinal joints that look unhygienic
At a hotel such as Argyll Hotel, which lies north-west of Fionnphort, the quieter weeks are the time to reseal bathrooms.
What your quote should include
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
Wet areas in Fionnphort’s workplaces
Fionnphort sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile, and seaside hospitality typically has a peak season that works washrooms hard. Washrooms used guest after guest wear their sanitary silicone faster, so resealing in the quieter months keeps rooms ready. Being in the west of Scotland, Fionnphort gets more rain than eastern areas. Where ventilation is poor, damp washrooms here tend to see black mould in the sealant sooner.
Washrooms near Fionnphort get the old silicone stripped out and a fresh anti-mould bead on dry joints.
Fionnphort is in Argyll and Bute. We cover commercial sites throughout Fionnphort. Fionnphort is one of 124 places we cover in Argyll and Bute.

What the job involves on each surface
Kitchens and tea points
Kitchen joints need to be smooth and sealed so they can be cleaned properly. Where food contact is possible, we use a hygienic, food-safe sealant.
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
Wet-room floors and the joints where flooring turns up the wall need to stay sound. We reseal the floor-to-wall junctions and around drains where sealant is used.
Also in Fionnphort
What we can’t put right
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
- Vanity carcasses that have swollen
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
If you’re not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Our process
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Fionnphort is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, so photos, sizes and a full list matter. 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.
- Old sealant is removed completely and the faces cleaned.
- Each joint is cleaned and left dry.
- New anti-mould sealant goes in and is tooled neat.
- Each area is handed back when ready.
Preparing the site
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Flag any permit to work we will need
