About our washroom sealing in Fordoun
Closing all the facilities in a building isn’t an option. Work is phased by room or by section, so there are always facilities in use. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. If you’re dealing with shower tray joints that have opened up and complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Fordoun? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
In smaller Scottish places like Fordoun, 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.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

What sealant work can’t fix
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Condensation from failed extract fans
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
- Swollen or delaminated boards behind panels or vanity tops
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Vanity units and basins
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Urinals and WCs
- Kitchens and tea points
Leave it or put it right?
Sealing on top of old silicone saves nothing. It doesn’t bond, so it peels and traps dirt behind it. Full removal and proper cleaning is what makes the new joint last. Around smaller places like Fordoun, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Resealing early avoids that.
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you are ready.

Keeping Fordoun washrooms open while we work
The east of Scotland, where Fordoun is, gets less rain than the west. Drier weather outside doesn’t help a washroom with poor extraction, where mould gets into silicone fast.
Phased work lets washrooms in and around Fordoun stay partly open while sealant is renewed.
Fordoun is about 11 miles north of Montrose, in Aberdeenshire. Across the AB30 postcode area, it works the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. 179 places across Aberdeenshire fall within our area, Fordoun among them. Sites around Aberdeen have their own page, roughly 22 miles from Fordoun.
If you need washroom sealing in AB30, the process matches everywhere else we work: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. If your site is on Station Road, Redhall Avenue and Redhall Place or close by, we can quote for washrooms and wet areas. Just outside Fordoun, we also work in Auchenblae (2 miles north-west), Arbuthnott (3 miles east), Glenbervie (3 miles north), Laurencekirk (4 miles south-west) and Drumlithie (4 miles north-east).

Do you need washroom sealing in Fordoun?
Sometimes the sealant fails because something behind it is moving or wet: loose fixings, a dripping trap or damp in the wall. We check for that first and say if it needs a plumber or another trade.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Mould spotting along silicone joints
- Discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans
- Split or peeling sealant at shower trays
- Stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops
Washrooms near Fordoun get the old silicone stripped out and a fresh anti-mould bead on dry joints.

Doing it in-house
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Work for main contractors and building owners
Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
Your questions answered
Will all the washrooms in our Fordoun building be closed at once?
Normally only some of them, for a short time. We work in phases so other facilities stay open. We will tell you the curing time for the product before we start.
What documents will you need to give us for a job in Fordoun?
We’ll confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details, with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?
Cleaning may lighten it, but the mould returns. New anti-mould sanitary silicone is the treatment and check the ventilation isn’t the cause.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Do you cover Fordoun?
Yes. We cover Fordoun, and you can ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings to get started.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and any queries are raised before we start.
