Different surfaces, different methods
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
Wet-room floors and the joints where flooring turns up the wall need to stay sound. We reseal the floor-to-wall junctions and around drains where sealant is used.
Showers and trays
In staff, hotel and changing-room showers, the tray joint and wall corners take the hardest use. Every joint is stripped, degreased, dried and given a new bead.

Should maintenance staff do it?
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
Questions we are asked in Limekilns
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Hopetoun House, something you do?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Is a smaller place like Limekilns outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across every Scottish council area. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Will you quote for a small job?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Send details for a fixed quote.
Will all the toilets be closed at once?
We phase it so users always have somewhere to go. One washroom, one bank of cubicles or one changing room is done at a time. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
How long do sealant joints last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, 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.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Signs you need washroom sealing in Limekilns
Decorators’ caulk and general sealants sometimes end up where sanitary silicone belongs. They aren’t made for constant wetting and they discolour and fail early.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- A new bead over an old one coming away
- Urinal joints that look unhygienic
- Gaps where vanity tops meet the wall
- Kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean
Church halls and community buildings, such as those at Limekilns Parish Church, have kitchens and toilets used by many groups, and their sanitary sealant works hard.
What your quote should include
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed

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 before the next one starts. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Limekilns is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, which is why we ask for photographs and a full list first. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- Every room is surveyed and the failed joints listed.
- You get a fixed quote with the phasing plan.
- The whole of the old bead is removed.
- Each joint is cleaned and left dry.
- New anti-mould sealant goes in and is tooled neat.
- Each area is handed back when ready.
What we need from you
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Make sure the joints can be reached
Ask for a quote
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.

Busy facilities in and around Limekilns
Limekilns is within about 1 mile of the coast, and places by the sea often rely on visitors, so their hotels and holiday lets see heavy seasonal use. Heavy seasonal use is hard on shower and basin sealant, and the quieter months are the natural time to reseal. Limekilns is in the east of Scotland, which is drier than the west. Drier weather outside doesn’t help a washroom with poor extraction, where mould gets into silicone fast.
Toilets at places like Kingsgate Centre, 2.8 miles north of Limekilns, are cleaned constantly, so silicone needs to be sound and smooth. On an industrial estate such as Primrose Lane Industrial Estate, which lies east of Limekilns, staff toilets, showers and canteens are where sanitary sealant takes the most wear.
