Your questions answered
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University of Edinburgh - Easter Bush Campus?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Will our hotel in Penicuik need to close for the work?
In the majority of cases no closure is needed: we work room by room or floor by floor. Housekeeping and our team agree each day’s rooms.
Which silicone is right for commercial washrooms?
It depends on the joint. Most washroom joints take sanitary silicone, and food areas take a hygienic, food-safe sealant where food contact is possible.

You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.

What the job involves on each surface

If a tray moves too much or is cracked, it needs attention first and we flag that beforehand.
Kitchens and tea points
Staff kitchens and tea points have joints at worktops, sinks and splashbacks. Sound joints keep those surfaces easy to clean.

Do you need washroom sealing in Penicuik?
Commercial cleaning is harder on sealant than everyday use. Strong chemicals, scourers and jet washing roughen, discolour or lift a bead, and dirt and mould then get a foothold.
Clients usually get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Open joints at the base of cubicle panels
- Resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed
- Black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift
- Shower tray joints that have opened up
At a university such as University of Edinburgh - Easter Bush Campus, 2.2 miles to the north of Penicuik, summer is the usual window for resealing residence bathrooms.

- The fixed quote sets out the rooms, the products and the phasing.
- Old sealant is removed completely and the faces cleaned.
- Joints are degreased and dried.
- New anti-mould sealant goes in and is tooled neat.

Advice
When to bring in a specialist
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
