Share the site address and what’s failing, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote or arrange a visit.
Doing it in-house
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Washroom sealing in Peterculter
Accessible WCs, showers and changing areas have their own pinch points: wet-floor edges, tray perimeters, basin tops and the line where flooring meets the wall. Gaps in those places let water get under the floor or behind panels, so we look at them closely. The enquiries we see most involve failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen and failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels, on showers, trays and wet room floors, accessible toilets and changing rooms and vanity units and basins. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Peterculter tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Hospitality around smaller Scottish places like Peterculter tends to be seasonal, and resealing washrooms in the quieter months keeps rooms available when they’re needed.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

How the job changes by surface
Healthcare and care settings
We phase washroom sealing so care areas are never left without facilities. Records you need can be confirmed with the quote.
Changing rooms and gyms
Showers, floor edges and vanity units in changing rooms all need sound sealant, and we survey them together.
Our process
At the end of each section, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked with your site contact. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. For work around Peterculter, we aim for one trip, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- We survey each room, count the joints and note anything behind them that needs another trade.
- The phasing is agreed so there are always facilities open.
- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
- Joints are cleaned, degreased and dried before sealing.
- A bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone goes in and is tooled to a smooth, cleanable profile.
- Rooms reopen after the product’s cure time, and we move to the next.
Getting the site ready
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Let us know about inductions and permits

Related advice
Why deal with it now?
Cleaning mouldy sealant only masks it, but the mould is rooted in the silicone and comes back. Replacement deals with the cause in the joint and your cleaning team stops chasing it. Around smaller places like Peterculter, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. 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 you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.
Why us?
- Work to your specification and the manufacturer’s guidance
- Public liability insurance in place

Maintenance after handover
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Report faulty extraction promptly
- Photograph and log failed joints across the estate
- Include joints in routine washroom inspections
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
Ask your cleaning team to use gentle products and soft cloths on sealant. Strong acids, solvents and scourers wear the surface over time.
Leaks through tray and wet-floor joints can go unseen until a ceiling marks below. At that stage, boards or ceilings may need repair, so reseal when you first spot a split.
Questions about Peterculter
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Woodend Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is a smaller place like Peterculter outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.
Which sealant will you use?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
Is it possible to just clean mouldy silicone?
Usually not. The mould is inside the silicone so cleaning only lightens it for a while. Replacement is the lasting fix.
How many days will you need on site?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.

What sealant work can’t fix
Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
- Hollow tiles or loose panels behind the joint
