Keeping New Byth washrooms open while we work
New Byth is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Even so, a washroom that doesn’t dry out between uses will see mould get into its sealant.
In any commercial washroom in or near New Byth, mouldy sealant is cut out rather than cleaned, and anti-mould sanitary silicone goes on clean, dry joints.
New Byth is about 13 miles south-west of Fraserburgh, in Aberdeenshire. Anywhere in AB53, it works the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Across Aberdeenshire, 179 places are covered, including New Byth. Aberdeen is covered too, some 30 miles away.

Washroom sealing in New Byth, done properly
Washroom joints need the right sealant, not whatever is to hand. Sanitary silicone contains additives that resist mould, and neutral-cure types are used where acetoxy silicone could attack some metals, stone or mirror backings. Where food contact is possible, we use a hygienic, food-safe grade. We work on kitchens and tea points, accessible toilets and changing rooms and vanity units and basins, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed and stained sealant around pans and urinals. A single leaking joint is often how a building in New Byth first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.

New Byth: questions and answers
Is a smaller place like New Byth outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across every Scottish council area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
What site paperwork comes with a job in New Byth?
We’ll confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details, with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
How long before the toilets can reopen?
That varies with the sealant and the room temperature. Each room gets its own reopening time from us, and signs stay up until then.
What do you charge?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. To get one, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with a description of the work.
How long do sealant joints last?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photographs, drawings or a joint schedule. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. A group of buildings can go on one quote, and you deal with one contact throughout across South East England, Greater London and Scotland.
Owners, agents and contractors
We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.

What else we do in New Byth
After the work
Once the work is signed off, these steps help:
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
- Photograph and log failed joints across the estate
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
- Report faulty extraction promptly
Each room goes back into use only when the sealant has cured enough. We’ll tell you when the wet areas can be used, and it helps if signs stay up until then.
Mould in a joint spreads along the bead and into nearby grout, and complaints follow. Dealing with it while it’s just the sealant keeps it simple.
Why deal with it now?
Water gets behind panels and under floors through a failed joint. In a commercial building that can mean damaged boards, stained ceilings on the floor below and odours which costs more to fix than a reseal. Around smaller places like New Byth, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, giving water time to get in. Resealing early avoids that.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.
Why appoint us
- Fully insured, including public liability cover
- A Constructionline member, so easy to vet
- Failed material removed, not covered up
- Standard and matched colours in many product ranges

Common problems we fix in New Byth
Cubicle panels, IPS panels and vanity units flex when people lean on them or doors are slammed, and shower trays shift under foot. A bead that can’t cope with the movement splits along one edge.
Things that normally lead to an enquiry:
- Stained sealant around pans and urinals
- Sealant lifting along a tray edge
- Open joints along basins and vanity units
- Users noticing mouldy joints
Church halls and community buildings, such as those at New Byth Church, have kitchens and toilets used by many groups, and their sanitary sealant works hard.

On site: what to expect
When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself typically taking a few hours for one toilet block, with bigger buildings phased across a number of visits. For a building near New Byth, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- We agree which washrooms close and when.
- Leaks, loose panels or damp are pointed out first.
- Failed sealant and residue are stripped out.
- We reseal with the grade suited to each area.
- We confirm reopening times for each washroom.
Before we start on site
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Let building users know which areas are affected
