We are fully insured. Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. If you’re dealing with open joints along basins and vanity units and mould spotting along silicone joints, we can put it right, on IPS panels and cubicles, urinals and WCs and vanity units and basins alike. Most enquiries from Kettlebridge start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.

Hospitality around smaller Scottish places like Kettlebridge tends to be seasonal, so washroom work is often best planned for quieter months.

Our process

Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Kettlebridge is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, so photos, sizes and a full list matter. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.

  1. First, the phasing is agreed so facilities stay open.
  2. Anything behind the joints that needs another trade is flagged.
  3. Failed sealant and residue are stripped out.
  4. We reseal with the grade suited to each area.
  5. We confirm reopening times for each washroom.

What we need from you

  • Let building users know which areas are affected
  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
  • Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed

Wet areas in Kettlebridge’s workplaces

The east of Scotland, where Kettlebridge is, gets less rain than the west. Mould in sanitary sealant comes down to ventilation and use more than the weather outside.

Common problems we fix in Kettlebridge

Sometimes the sealant fails because something behind it is moving or wet: a loose panel, a leaking waste or water coming through the wall. We look for it before resealing and tell you if another trade is needed.

Typical triggers for a call:

  • Discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans
  • Open joints along basins and vanity units
  • Sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling
  • Open joints at the base of cubicle panels

For a hall at a building such as Kettle Parish Church, resealing the kitchen and toilets can be fitted between bookings.

What your quote should include

  • Their pre-qualification and accreditations
  • What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
  • The named product and why it was chosen
  • How the joint faces will be prepared and primed

Our contractor checklist

Surface by surface

Basins and vanity tops

Vanity tops and basins are splashed all day, so the wall joint and bowl surrounds tend to fail before anything else. They are resealed with anti-mould sanitary silicone.

IPS and cubicle panels

Panels flex slightly in use, so the sealant has to take that movement. Loose panels are flagged before any sealant goes on.

Honest limits

Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:

  • Panel boards already damaged by water
  • Loose panels, vanity units or tiles, which need fixing first
  • Water from plumbing, not from a joint

If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will say what we think before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Accessible toilets and changing rooms
  • Vanity units and basins
  • Kitchens and tea points
  • Urinals and WCs
  • IPS panels and cubicles
  • Showers, trays and wet room floors

After the work

Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:

  • Squeegee showers and trays after busy periods
  • Report split joints at trays and basins early
  • Share your site rules when you send details
  • Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently

If a joint we sealed fails within 12 months, tell us and we will look at it. After that, a routine look catches failing joints early.

Leaks through tray and wet-floor joints can go unseen until a ceiling marks below. By then, other trades may be needed as well so failed joints are worth acting on quickly.

Questions we are asked in Kettlebridge

Is a smaller place like Kettlebridge outside your area?

Not at all. Kettlebridge is within our area. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Do we have to close all our washrooms in Kettlebridge for resealing?

Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. Sanitary silicone needs time to cure before the area is used, and we’ll tell you how long for the product used.

How do I request a quote?

It works in four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photographs and a postcode.

When is resealing likely to be due?

There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.

Does the weather affect the work?

Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Internal work is rarely affected.

Can you reseal washrooms in healthcare buildings?

Yes, healthcare and care settings are part of our work. Any records you need are confirmed with the quote.

Will you come and look before quoting?

Many jobs can be quoted from photographs, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.

Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
