Keeping the joints sound
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Keep extract fans working and vents clear
- Note failing joints building by building
- Keep washrooms out of use until we say the sealant has cured
- Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently
We hand each area back once the silicone has had the cure time the product needs. You’ll be told when showers and basins can be used again, and it helps if signs stay up until then.
Water getting behind IPS panels and vanity units can swell the boards. Once that happens, a reseal won’t fix them.
Common questions from Mid Auchinleck clients
Can you work on a hospital site such as Broadfield Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Will the toilets in our Mid Auchinleck building be out of use?
Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. We’ll tell you the curing time for the product before we start.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
How much does the work cost?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. To get one, call the office on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
How long does a job like this take?
That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit typically takes between a morning and a week or so, set by the number of rooms and the phasing you need. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.
Does the weather affect the work?
For external joints, 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.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
What we are called out for in Mid Auchinleck
Much of the failed sealant we remove was applied over old silicone or residue. Silicone won’t adhere to a silicone bead, so it soon lets go.
Things that typically lead to an enquiry:
- Black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift
- Open joints at the base of cubicle panels
- Sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling
- Failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen
Clinical washrooms at sites like Broadfield Hospital (to the north-east of Mid Auchinleck) are scheduled with the ward so the room is out of use for as little time as possible.

How a job runs
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Mid Auchinleck is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- We agree which washrooms close and when.
- Leaks, loose panels or damp are pointed out first.
- Old sealant is stripped and the faces prepared.
- We reseal with the grade suited to each area.
- We confirm reopening times for each washroom.
Before we start on site
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Flag any permit to work we will need
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.

Surface by surface
Healthcare and care settings
Accessible and assisted washrooms are used and cleaned intensively so their sealant tends to fail sooner.
Kitchens and tea points
We plan kitchen sealing around when the kitchen is in use. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
When to bring in a specialist
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
What we can’t put right
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
- Condensation from failed extract fans
If you are not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Kitchens and tea points
- Vanity units and basins
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Urinals and WCs
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- IPS panels and cubicles

Washroom sealing around Mid Auchinleck: what changes locally
Mid Auchinleck lies within about 1 mile of the sea, and coastal hotels, guest houses and holiday sites tend to fill up in the busy months. Washrooms used guest after guest wear their sanitary silicone faster, which is why off-season resealing makes sense. The west of Scotland, where Mid Auchinleck is, gets more rain than the east. In a damp climate, washrooms that aren’t well ventilated stay wet for longer, and sealant in a room that never dries out moulds faster.
