Washroom sealing in Greycrook
You can’t shut every toilet in an office, school or hotel at once. 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’ll plan around them. If you have sealant stained black around basins and showers and complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms, we can help, whatever the surface. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Greycrook is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Around smaller places such as Greycrook, washrooms and kitchens are found in hotels, pubs, schools, care homes and 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.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

Questions about Greycrook
Is a smaller place like Greycrook outside your area?
Not at all. Greycrook is within our area. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like Borders College - Newtown St Boswells Campus?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
Do you need to remove the old sealant?
We strip every bit of the failed bead and wipe away the residue first. That’s what makes the new joint last.
Can you send site paperwork?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
How do we ask for a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photos and a postcode.
Will you come and look before quoting?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit before quoting.

Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas
Before we quote, we look at:
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Any access equipment needed
- Phasing around occupants
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
What to include in your enquiry
To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- The type of building and who uses it
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Any specification or named product

Honest limits
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We will tell you if the real problem is any of the following:
- Leaks through tanking or membranes below the finishes
- Vanity carcasses that have swollen
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Urinals and WCs
- Vanity units and basins
- Kitchens and tea points
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
Our process
In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then handed back before we move to the next. Where we can, we combine work around Greycrook with other jobs nearby. Tell us how flexible your dates are.
- First, the phasing is agreed so facilities stay open.
- Leaks, loose panels or damp are pointed out first.
- Old sealant is stripped and the faces prepared.
- The right sanitary or food-safe sealant is applied.
- We give you a reopening time for every room.
Getting the site ready
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Move anything stored against the joints

Advice
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. Food-safe sealants are used where food may touch the joint.
Showers and trays
If a tray moves too much or is cracked, it needs attention first and we flag that beforehand.
What we’re called out for in Greycrook
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 tell you if another trade is needed.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed
- Mould spotting along silicone joints
- Failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen
- Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
Where you are responsible for a hall attached to a building such as St Boswells Church, its kitchen and toilets need sealant that stays cleanable.
What to look for in a quote
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
Maintenance after handover
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Photograph and log failed joints across the estate
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
- Clear standing water from shower floors where possible
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
We hand each area back once the silicone has had the cure time the product needs. You will be told when showers and basins can be used again and signage stays in place until that time.
A few failed joints can be resealed with hardly any disruption. Left, it tends to become a building-wide job with more phasing to plan.
