Forfar: questions and answers
Is a hospital such as Forfar Infirmary somewhere you can work?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Does a hotel in Forfar need to shut while its sealant is renewed?
Rarely. Rooms or floors are done in turn, so the rest of the hotel keeps trading. The plan is built around your bookings.
How do we ask for a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form. Include photos or drawings if you have them.
Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?
Cleaning may lighten it, but the mould returns. We replace the sealant with an anti-mould sanitary grade and check the ventilation isn’t the cause.
Will all the toilets be closed at once?
Only the area we’re working in is closed. Each room reopens after the sealant’s cure time, then we move on.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Washroom sealing in Forfar, done properly
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 we look at them closely. If you have urinal joints that look unhygienic and users noticing mouldy joints, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Forfar tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
In a Scottish town such as Forfar, washrooms and wet areas are in schools, leisure centres, care homes, health centres, hotels and offices. Tired sealant comes out and fresh mould-resistant silicone goes in, in phases so facilities stay open.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will come back to it.

Building owners, agents and FMs in Forfar
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor. Programme, specification and site rules come first, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Forfar can form part of a wider programme.
Common problems we fix in Forfar
A lot of failed washroom sealant was laid over an old bead or a dirty surface. Silicone won’t adhere to a silicone bead so it peels away quickly.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift
- Users noticing mouldy joints
- Split or peeling sealant at shower trays
- Failed sealant behind washroom basins
Hotels such as Royal Hotel (under half a mile west of Forfar) have en suite bathrooms where tired silicone at the bath, tray and basin is replaced room by room.
What to look for in a quote
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- Who will actually carry out the work
Washroom sealing in Forfar: the local picture
The east of Scotland, where Forfar is, gets less rain than the west. Drier weather outside doesn’t help a washroom with poor extraction, where mould gets into silicone fast. The area within 2 miles of Forfar holds several hotels. En suite bathrooms, staff changing rooms and kitchens all need their sanitary silicone renewed in time. Rooms are done in turn so most stay available.
Toilets at places like Forfar Retail Park (to the west of Forfar) are cleaned constantly, which is hard on silicone. Healthcare estates like Forfar Infirmary (less than half a mile east of Forfar) expect contractors to follow their permits and cleaning rules in every washroom.

How a job runs
On arrival, 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, and the work usually takes a few hours for one toilet block, with bigger buildings phased across a number of visits. For a unit on an estate in Forfar, tell us about yard access and site rules. Central premises can need a little more planning for parking.
- We survey each room, count the joints and note anything behind them that needs another trade.
- A phasing plan keeps part of the building’s facilities in use at all times.
- We strip out the old bead and clean off the residue left behind.
- Each joint is degreased and left dry, because silicone won’t bond to damp or soapy surfaces.
- A bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone goes in and is tooled to a smooth, cleanable profile.
- Rooms reopen after the product’s cure time, and we move to the next.
What we need from you
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Make sure the joints can be reached

What else we do in Forfar
Should maintenance staff do it?
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Different surfaces, different methods
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.
Changing rooms and gyms
We phase work so not every changing area is closed at once. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
What affects the price in Forfar
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- How accessible the joints are
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
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.
Sending details for a quote
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- Where the site is, with the postcode
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.
