Looking after the joints
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Inspect washroom sealant regularly
- Keep extract fans working and vents clear
- Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
If a joint we sealed fails within 12 months, tell us and we’ll look at it. Beyond that, regular checks keep small problems small.
Mould in a joint spreads along the bead and into nearby grout, and complaints follow. Dealing with it while it’s just the sealant keeps it simple.
Washroom sealing in Johnstonebridge, done properly
Washroom joints need the right sealant, not whatever is to hand. Sanitary grades carry anti-mould additives, and neutral-cure versions avoid the damage acetoxy types can do to some metals, stone and mirror backings. Where food contact is possible, we use a hygienic, food-safe grade. If you have open joints at the base of cubicle panels and gaps where vanity tops meet the wall, we can put it right, on IPS panels and cubicles, vanity units and basins and urinals and WCs alike. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Johnstonebridge is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

Leave it or put it right?
When a washroom looks worn, a refit isn’t the only answer. Where tiles, panels and fittings are sound, new sealant may be enough to put it right while bigger works are planned. Renewing every failing joint on one visit is the sensible approach for a place like Johnstonebridge. Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.

Common questions from Johnstonebridge clients
Which documents can you supply for work in Johnstonebridge?
We’ll confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details, with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
Will the toilets in our Johnstonebridge building be out of use?
Usually only some of them, for a short time. We work in phases so other facilities stay open. Sanitary silicone needs time to cure before the area is used, and we’ll tell you how long for the product used.
Do you need to remove the old sealant?
We strip every bit of the failed bead and wipe away the residue before resealing. That’s what makes the new joint last.
Are you insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Do you work in Johnstonebridge?
Yes. We cover Johnstonebridge, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. To discuss a job, call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
Can washrooms stay open while you work?
The work is phased so users always have somewhere to go. We work through the building a room or section at a time around your site hours and access windows.
Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?
Usually not. The mould is inside the silicone so cleaning only lightens it for a while. Replacement is the lasting fix.
Keeping Johnstonebridge washrooms open while we work
Being in the east of Scotland, Johnstonebridge gets less rain than the west coast. Even so, a washroom that doesn’t dry out between uses will see mould get into its sealant.
At a hotel such as Dinwoodie Lodge Hotel, 1 mile south of Johnstonebridge, the quieter weeks are the time to reseal bathrooms.

What the job involves on each surface
Showers and trays
Shower joints in hotels, gyms and workplaces work hard. Every joint is stripped, degreased, dried and given a new bead.
Changing rooms and gyms
Changing rooms in gyms and leisure centres stay wet and warm so sealant there works very hard. Anti-mould sanitary silicone is the standard choice.
