Washroom sealing in Ninewells, done properly
Accessible WCs, showers and changing areas have their own pinch points: shower trays, wet-room floor edges, basins and floor-to-wall junctions. An open joint there lets water track under flooring or behind wall panels, so we look at them closely. Most enquiries involve failed sealant behind washroom basins and sealant lifting along a tray edge, across IPS panels and cubicles, showers, trays and wet room floors and urinals and WCs. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Ninewells first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Hospitality businesses in Scotland’s cities rely on washrooms and kitchens that look right and clean easily. Washrooms get anti-mould sanitary silicone and kitchens hygienic sealant, food-safe where needed.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

After the work
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Share these points with them:
- Make sure washroom ventilation is running
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
- Add sealant joints to planned maintenance checks
Mild cleaning products and non-abrasive cloths look after sanitary silicone best. Aggressive descalers, solvents and scouring pads shorten its life and give mould a start.
Water getting behind IPS panels and vanity units can swell the boards. Once that happens, a reseal won’t fix them.

What the job involves on each surface
Basins and vanity tops
Stone and some composite tops need a neutral-cure sealant and we choose a neutral-cure grade for them.
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
Changing rooms and accessible showers often have wet floors so the edges are checked carefully.
Questions we’re asked in Ninewells
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Ninewells Hospital, something you do?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Can you work in a care home near Ninewells with residents in?
Yes. We agree rooms and times with the manager and work a few areas at a time. Any site rules, from signing in to infection control, are agreed before we start.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Will you quote for a small job?
Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Send details for a fixed quote.
How a job runs
Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. Work on a big city site in Scotland normally involves inductions and permits. Tell us the rules and we’ll work to them.
- 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.
- The failed silicone is stripped and every face scraped clean of residue.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- A bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone goes in and is tooled to a smooth, cleanable profile.
- Each room is handed back once the sealant has had its cure time.
What we need from you
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in

Why act early in Ninewells
Open or mouldy joints are hard to keep hygienic which matters most in healthcare, food and education settings. A smooth, sealed joint can be cleaned properly. Getting access arranged for a building in Ninewells takes time, so it makes sense to renew every failing joint while it’s in place.
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
Why us?
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
- Colours chosen to suit frames, cladding or finishes where possible
- A fixed quote before work starts
- Constructionline member for supplier checks

Should maintenance staff do it?
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.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Commercial washrooms in Ninewells
The sea is no more than about 1 mile from Ninewells, and places by the sea often rely on visitors, so their hotels and holiday lets see heavy seasonal use. Washrooms used guest after guest wear their sanitary silicone faster, which is why off-season resealing makes sense. Ninewells 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.

Toilets at colleges like Dundee and Angus College - Kingsway Campus, 2.8 miles to the north-east of Ninewells, take heavy use from students and staff alike.
