About our washroom sealing in Fordyce
In healthcare and care settings, sealing is part of keeping surfaces cleanable. Your estates and infection-control requirements, and any permits the site uses, shape how we work. Tell us what records you need and we’ll confirm with the quote. The enquiries we see most involve open joints at the base of cubicle panels and open joints along basins and vanity units, on IPS panels and cubicles, urinals and WCs and kitchens and tea points. Most enquiries from Fordyce start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Hospitality around smaller Scottish places like Fordyce tends to be seasonal, and resealing washrooms in the quieter months keeps rooms available when they’re needed.
We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

When to call us in Fordyce
Daily commercial cleaning wears sealant faster than people expect. Strong chemicals, scourers and jet washing roughen, discolour or lift a bead, and dirt and mould then get a foothold.
Typical triggers for a call:
- A new bead over an old one coming away
- Washrooms that look worn because of the sealant
- Stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops
- Black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift
Schools such as Fordyce Academy have toilets, changing rooms and kitchens that are best resealed in the holidays.

On site: what to expect
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, with the work itself normally taking a few hours for one toilet block, with bigger buildings phased across a number of visits. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Fordyce. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.

Advice
Surface by surface
Changing rooms and gyms
Changing rooms in gyms and leisure centres stay wet and warm so sealant there works very hard. We use anti-mould sanitary silicone throughout.
Showers and trays
A tray flexes every time it’s used and is constantly wet. Tray joints are where many washroom leaks start.
Your questions answered
Must every washroom in our Fordyce building shut while you work?
Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. Sanitary silicone needs time to cure before the area is used, and we will tell you how long for the product used.
Is Fordyce off your patch?
No. Places such as Fordyce are covered as much as the big towns. We work across every Scottish council area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
Will you quote for a small job?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Send details for a fixed quote.
How much does the work cost?
That depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a quote and we will price it properly.
How long will the new sealant last?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
When can showers be used after new sealant?
Cure times vary by product and temperature. Each room gets its own reopening time from us, and signs stay up until then.
Should maintenance staff do it?
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.

The sea is no more than about 2 miles from Fordyce, and coastal places often have hotels, guest houses and holiday accommodation with busy seasons. Bathrooms turned round daily in the busy months need sound, cleanable joints, so resealing in the quieter months keeps rooms ready. Being in the east of Scotland, Fordyce gets less rain than the west coast. Inside, ventilation and use decide how fast washroom sealant moulds, whatever the weather.
For a site such as Campbell Hospital, 2.3 miles north-east of Fordyce, sanitary joints in clinical areas need sound, cleanable sealant and a careful method.

Leave it or put it right?
A tired washroom says a lot about how a building is run. Visitors notice black sealant even when the room is otherwise spotless. Resealing is a modest task with a very visible payoff. Around smaller places like Fordyce, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, giving water time to get in. Early resealing prevents it.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
