About our washroom sealing in Hestingott
From one staff toilet in Hestingott to washrooms across a whole estate, the route is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. Photos and a rough count of basins, urinals, showers and cubicles help us give a quick quote and a site visit is an option. We work on kitchens and tea points, urinals and WCs and vanity units and basins, and what we are called in for most is stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops and open joints at the base of cubicle panels. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Hestingott, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Hotels and holiday accommodation in rural Scotland have busy and quiet seasons, and resealing washrooms in the quieter months keeps rooms available when they’re needed.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application.

What sets the cost
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Joint width, depth and condition
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you’re ready.
Details that help us quote
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Specification clauses that apply
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we’ll put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
Wet areas in Hestingott’s workplaces
Hestingott sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile, and coastal hotels, guest houses and holiday sites tend to fill up in the busy months. Washrooms used guest after guest wear their sanitary silicone faster, so we plan the work for quieter weeks where possible. The east of Scotland, where Hestingott is, gets less rain than the west. Even so, a washroom that doesn’t dry out between uses will see mould get into its sealant.
Church halls and community buildings, such as those at Cross Kirk, have kitchens and toilets used by many groups, and their sanitary sealant works hard. Around Hestingott, washroom joints are resealed by removing the old silicone completely and laying anti-mould sanitary silicone on dry surfaces.
Hestingott is in the Shetland Islands. If you are looking for washroom sealing in Hestingott, we can help. Hestingott is one of 63 places we cover in the Shetland Islands.
Commercial sites across ZE3 are covered. For a building on Thistle Court and Ninian Drive or nearby, we can quote for washrooms and wet areas. Sites close to Hestingott are covered too, including Toab (1 mile south-east), Exnaboe (1 mile east), Scatness (1 mile south), Boddam (2 miles north) and South Scousburgh (3 miles north). Where a site is remote or on an island, travel and materials need planning ahead, so the full address helps from the start.

Surface by surface
Urinals and WC pans
The joint between a pan and the floor is easy to overlook. We include them in the survey.
Basins and vanity tops
A failed joint along a vanity unit lets water into the carcass. Resealing early protects the unit.
How a job runs
Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Hestingott. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- Every washroom is checked joint by joint, with loose panels, leaks or damp noted for the right trade.
- A phasing plan keeps part of the building’s facilities in use at all times.
- The failed silicone is stripped and every face scraped clean of residue.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- We lay a sanitary silicone bead and tool it smooth so it is easy to clean.
- Rooms reopen after the product’s cure time, and we move to the next.
Before we start on site
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Flag any permit to work we will need

When something else is needed
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Vanity carcasses that have swollen
- A dripping waste or valve behind a panel
- Loose panels, vanity units or tiles, which need fixing first
If you are not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Vanity units and basins
- Urinals and WCs
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Kitchens and tea points
- IPS panels and cubicles
What else we do in Hestingott
Should maintenance staff do it?
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Your questions answered
Is Hestingott inside the area you cover, given it’s on an island?
Yes. Islands are part of our area, Hestingott included. We plan island jobs around the ferry and the forecast, and bring everything the job needs on the first crossing.
Must every washroom in our Hestingott building shut while you work?
Rarely all at once: work is phased so some facilities are always available. Sanitary silicone needs time to cure before the area is used, and we will tell you how long for the product used.
Do you work in hospitals, clinics and care homes?
We work in clinics, hospitals and care homes. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured, including public liability cover.
How do we ask for a quote?
There are four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photographs and a postcode.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Is there a guarantee on the work?
A 12-month guarantee covers the work. It covers our workmanship rather than damage, leaks from plumbing or ventilation problems.
Why it’s worth doing now in Hestingott
Bleaching black sealant may lighten it for a few days, but the mould is rooted in the silicone and comes back. Replacement deals with the cause in the joint and cleaners stop fighting a losing battle. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, and for a smaller place like Hestingott, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote.
