Washroom sealing in Old Dailly, done properly
In healthcare and care settings, sealing is part of keeping surfaces cleanable. Your estates and infection-control requirements, and any permits the site uses, shape how we work. Tell us what records you need and we’ll confirm with the quote. If you’re dealing with sealant lifting along a tray edge and failed sealant behind washroom basins, we can help, whatever the surface.

In smaller Scottish places like Old Dailly, 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.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Aftercare for building managers
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Add sealant joints to planned maintenance checks
- Note failing joints building by building
- Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone
- Tell us about infection-control or permit rules before we quote
Add washroom sealant to routine inspections. Look for black spotting, cracks, peeling edges and gaps at the busiest fittings and photograph anything new.
Mould in a joint spreads along the bead and into nearby grout and users notice. Replacing it early keeps the job to a reseal.
Quoting for work in Old Dailly
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Working within restricted access windows
- Which sealant the job calls for
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.
What to include in your enquiry
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Any dates the work must fit around
- The site address and postcode
Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.

Toilets, showers and kitchens around Old Dailly
Old Dailly is within about 3 miles of the coast, 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, and the quieter months are the natural time to reseal. Old Dailly is in the west of Scotland, the wetter side of the country. Damp air means a poorly ventilated washroom rarely dries out fully, which is when mould gets into the sealant.
Pupil toilets at schools like Girvan Academy take heavy daily use, and the holidays give the window to reseal. On a healthcare site such as Girvan Community Hospital, which lies west of Old Dailly, washroom work starts with the infection-control team’s sign-off.

Old Dailly: questions and answers
Is Old Dailly off your patch?
Not at all. Old Dailly is within our area. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Do we have to close all our washrooms in Old Dailly for resealing?
Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. We will tell you the curing time for the product before we start.
Do you do washroom sealing in healthcare settings?
Yes. We work to your estates and infection-control requirements and any site permits. The work is phased around patients or residents.
Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?
Not for long. The mould is inside the silicone so cleaning only lightens it for a while. Replacement is the lasting fix.
How long does a job like this take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
What will the job cost?
Each job is quoted on its own details. For yours, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with a description of the work.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
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 work stops until any suspect material has been tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
Common problems we fix in Old Dailly
Sometimes the sealant fails because something behind it is moving or wet: a loose panel, a leaking waste or water coming through the wall. We check for that first and tell you if another trade is needed.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Sealant stained black around basins and showers
- Stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops
- Shower tray joints that have opened up
- Resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed
Halls linked to places like Old Dailly Parish Church host groups all week, which is hard on kitchen and toilet sealant.
