Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
Keeping the joints sound
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Note failing joints building by building
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
- Inspect washroom sealant regularly
- Clean sealant with gentle products and a soft cloth
Include sealant joints in your planned maintenance checks. Check for mould spots, splits, lifting edges and open joints at trays, basins and urinals and photograph anything new.
Mould in a joint spreads along the bead and into nearby grout and users notice. Dealing with it while it’s just the sealant keeps it simple.
About our washroom sealing in Milton of Leys
Black spotting along a sealant bead is not a cleaning problem. The growth is inside the sealant, which is why it comes back however often it is treated. Only replacement gets rid of it for good. If you have urinal joints that look unhygienic and gaps where vanity tops meet the wall, we can put it right, on IPS panels and cubicles, urinals and WCs and vanity units and basins alike.

Hospitality around smaller Scottish places like Milton of Leys tends to be seasonal, and resealing washrooms in the quieter months keeps rooms available when they’re needed.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Common problems we fix in Milton of Leys
Washrooms are warm, damp and full of organic residue, and sealant joints trap all three. Anti-mould additives help, but in a poorly ventilated room mould can still take hold eventually.
Look out for the following:
- Kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean
- Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
- Shower tray joints that have opened up
- Resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed
On a healthcare site such as Raigmore Hospital, which lies north of Milton of Leys, washroom work starts with the infection-control team’s sign-off.
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- How joint depth will be controlled
- What site paperwork they can supply
General trades versus a specialist
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 you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
From enquiry to sign-off
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work typically takes half a day to a day per washroom, depending on the number of fittings, and we clear our waste as we work. Where we can, we combine work around Milton of Leys with other jobs nearby. Tell us how flexible your dates are.
- We start by inspecting the fittings and joints and flagging problems sealant can’t solve.
- A phasing plan keeps part of the building’s facilities in use at all times.
- We strip out the old bead and clean off the residue left behind.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- New sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives goes in and is tooled neat.
- Rooms reopen after the product’s cure time, and we move to the next.
Before we start on site
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Point out any areas we must not close
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

Do hotels near Milton of Leys have to close for sealant work?
Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. Tell us your quiet periods and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
How do you choose the sealant?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured, including public liability cover.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
That depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
What guarantee comes with washroom resealing?
Our workmanship has a 12-month guarantee backed by public liability insurance.
