Washroom sealing in Lochardil
Our washroom work covers offices, hotels, schools and colleges, leisure centres and gyms, clinics and care homes, plus the kitchens and tea points that go with them. Product and method follow how hard each area is used and cleaned. We work on urinals and WCs, accessible toilets and changing rooms and kitchens and tea points, and what we are called in for most is kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean and sealant stained black around basins and showers. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Lochardil, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Hospitality around smaller Scottish places like Lochardil tends to be seasonal, and resealing washrooms in the quieter months keeps rooms available when they’re needed.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

What the job involves on each surface
Urinals and WC pans
Pan and urinal joints face constant cleaning and splashing. Stained or split joints here trap smells and make the room look neglected.
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
Wet floors are common in accessible showers and changing rooms, so their perimeter joints get close attention.
Sanitary sealant for Lochardil buildings
Lochardil is within about 3 miles of the coast, and coastal hotels, guest houses and holiday sites tend to fill up in the busy months. Showers and en suites in constant use are where silicone moulds and splits first, so resealing in the quieter months keeps rooms ready. Plenty of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Lochardil. Each has en suites, back-of-house toilets and kitchens with sealant that moulds and splits. Rooms are done in turn so most stay available.
At a hotel such as Lochardil House Hotel, under half a mile to the north-west of Lochardil, the quieter weeks are the time to reseal bathrooms. Toilets at colleges like Inverness College UHI, 2.2 miles north-east of Lochardil, take heavy use from students and staff alike. Healthcare washrooms on sites such as Royal Northern Infirmary (1.2 miles north of Lochardil) are resealed area by area, under the site’s own infection-control rules.

What else we do in Lochardil
Questions we are asked in Lochardil
Is a smaller place like Lochardil outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Every Scottish council area is within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Do you work in occupied care homes around Lochardil?
Yes. Care settings are planned area by area, at times agreed with the home. Tell us about any infection-control or safeguarding requirements and we’ll work to them.
What do you charge?
There isn’t a price list, because every site is different. Send photos or drawings and we’ll price it at a fixed figure.
What guarantee comes with washroom resealing?
Every job carries our 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship rather than damage, leaks from plumbing or ventilation problems.
Is old silicone taken out first?
We strip every bit of the failed bead and wipe away the residue first. That’s what makes the new joint last.
Which silicone is right for commercial washrooms?
It depends on the joint. Most washroom joints take sanitary silicone while kitchens may need a food-safe grade.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we’ll price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Doing it in-house
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Our process
A typical day starts with protection: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. The work itself normally takes a morning or so for a small washroom, longer where showers and changing rooms are included, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Lochardil. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- We start by inspecting the fittings and joints and flagging problems sealant can’t solve.
- The phasing is agreed so there are always facilities open.
- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
- Joints are cleaned, degreased and dried before sealing.
- A bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone goes in and is tooled to a smooth, cleanable profile.
- Rooms reopen after the product’s cure time, and we move to the next.
What we need from you
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Let us know about inductions and permits
Getting a fixed quote
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.

Quoting for work in Lochardil
Each job is priced on its own details. The things that drive the figure:
- How much existing material needs removing
- The total length or number of joints
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
We can often quote from photos and a few details. Please tell us:
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- The postcode of the building
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
When it isn’t the sealant
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:
- A room that stays damp because ventilation isn’t working
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will tell you honestly.
