Leave it or put it right?
A tired-looking washroom doesn’t always need a refurbishment. If the finishes are in good order, replacing the sealant may do much of what’s needed for now. In Greenhill, as across Scotland, rain finds any gap, so a split or hardened joint lets water into the wall. Resealing promptly protects the stone and the interior.
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Greenhill
Whether it’s a single toilet block in Greenhill or a programme across several buildings, we work the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. A few photos and a count of fittings are enough for a quick quote and a site visit is an option. Site teams most often ask us about washrooms that look worn because of the sealant and sealant stained black around basins and showers, across kitchens and tea points, urinals and WCs and vanity units and basins. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Greenhill, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Ground-floor premises below tenements in Scotland’s cities often have small staff toilets and kitchens. Compact, poorly ventilated rooms are hard on sealant, so it’s worth resealing before it spreads.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. Should something we installed fail, call 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll come back to it.

Honest limits
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- A room that stays damp because ventilation isn’t working
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
- Loose panels, vanity units or tiles, which need fixing first

Toilets, showers and kitchens around Greenhill
With the shore within about 3 miles, Greenhill counts as a coastal location, and coastal hotels, guest houses and holiday sites tend to fill up in the busy months. Heavy seasonal use is hard on shower and basin sealant, and the quieter months are the natural time to reseal. Greenhill has four care or nursing homes no more than 2 miles away. Care home wet rooms and en suites are used every day and cleaned hard, which tells on the silicone. We plan the work with the manager so residents are disturbed as little as possible.
Student showers at universities like Edinburgh Napier University - Merchiston Campus, under half a mile west of Greenhill, see more use than most, and their silicone shows it. At a hospital like Astley Ainslie Hospital, 0.5 miles south-east of Greenhill, patient and staff washrooms are best done in short phases agreed with the ward. Toilets at colleges like Royal College of General Practitioners Edinburgh (1.5 miles north of Greenhill) take heavy use from students and staff alike.
Greenhill is about 1 mile south of Edinburgh, in Edinburgh. Across the EH10 postcode area, the process is the same: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Greenhill is one of 174 places in Edinburgh on our list.
We take on washrooms and wet areas across the EH10, EH9 and EH11 postcode area, whatever the building.

Keeping the joints sound
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Act on the first split you see at a shower tray
- Note failing joints building by building
- Share your site rules when you send details
- Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone
Each room goes back into use only when the sealant has cured enough. We’ll tell you when the wet areas can be used, and it helps if signs stay up until then.
In food areas, cleanability is something environmental health officers look at. Failed sealant around sinks and worktops is easy to put right in good time.
