FAQs: Newport-on-Tay
Is Newport-on-Tay too small for you to travel to?
No. Places such as Newport-on-Tay are covered as much as the big towns. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can work at a site such as University of Dundee fit around teaching?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
When can showers be used after new sealant?
The silicone needs time to cure before water reaches it. Phasing is planned with the cure time in mind so facilities are never short.
How long does a job like this take?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit normally takes half a day to a day per washroom, depending on the number of fittings. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
Do you need to see the site first?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a visit.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
How we handle washroom sealing in Newport-on-Tay
Since 2005 we have resealed commercial washrooms for facilities teams, contractors and building owners. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with CSCS-carded applicators. We are fully insured. Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. We work on vanity units and basins, showers, trays and wet room floors and kitchens and tea points, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops and urinal joints that look unhygienic. Whoever orders the work in Newport-on-Tay, the brief is normally the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
In smaller Scottish places like Newport-on-Tay, commercial washrooms are typically in hotels, pubs, schools, care homes and community halls. Mould grows into sealant in any wet room that doesn’t dry out, and the answer is removal and a fresh bead of anti-mould silicone.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will come back to it.

What we are called out for in Newport-on-Tay
Commercial cleaning is harder on sealant than everyday use. Harsh products, abrasive pads and pressure washing break down a joint’s surface and edges so grime sticks to the damaged surface.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Urinal joints that look unhygienic
- Black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift
- Stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops
- Users noticing mouldy joints
Halls of residence and teaching buildings at universities such as University of Dundee, 2.1 miles north-west of Newport-on-Tay, are easiest to reseal during vacations.

- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint

Why it’s worth doing now in Newport-on-Tay
Running fresh silicone along a failed bead hides the problem briefly. Silicone won’t grip silicone, so it lifts and holds moisture underneath. Cutting out completely and cleaning back takes a little longer and lasts. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, so it’s worth renewing joints around Newport-on-Tay before they leak.
The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you are ready.

Advice
When to bring in a specialist
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
