Sanitary sealant for Jock's Lodge buildings

Washrooms used guest after guest wear their sanitary silicone faster, and the quieter months are the natural time to reseal. Eight care or nursing homes sit less than 2 miles from Jock's Lodge. In a care setting, a mouldy or lifting joint in a wet room is a hygiene issue as much as a cosmetic one. Work is agreed with the manager, around residents’ routines.

Common questions from Jock's Lodge clients
Do hotels near Jock's Lodge have to close for sealant work?
Almost never. The work is phased so most rooms stay available. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.
Is a hospital such as Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh (Little France) somewhere you can work?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Will you come and look before quoting?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photographs and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Will you quote for a small job?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.
Do you phase washroom resealing?
Only the area we are working in is closed. Each room reopens after the sealant’s cure time and we start the next.
Do you guarantee washroom sealing?
Our workmanship has a 12-month guarantee backed by public liability insurance.
What affects the price in Jock's Lodge
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- How accessible the joints are
- The total length or number of joints
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
Before you send an enquiry
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- The postcode of the building
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Your programme or deadline
Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.
What sealant work can’t fix
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
- Swollen or delaminated boards behind panels or vanity tops
- Loose panels, vanity units or tiles, which need fixing first
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will say what we think before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Urinals and WCs
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Kitchens and tea points
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Vanity units and basins
Doing it in-house
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
Leave it or put it right?
A failed joint behind a basin or along a shower tray lets water run where it shouldn’t. In a commercial building that can mean damaged boards, stained ceilings on the floor below and odours which costs more to fix than a reseal. Failed sealant in a shared building in Jock's Lodge can affect more than one owner, which makes early repair simpler for everyone. Acting early avoids disputes and bigger repairs.
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.
