About our washroom sealing in Plean
Since 2005 we have resealed commercial washrooms for facilities teams, contractors and building owners. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member. We are fully insured. Every resealed washroom carries our 12-month guarantee. The enquiries we see most involve discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans and sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling, across vanity units and basins, kitchens and tea points and IPS panels and cubicles. Whoever orders the work in Plean, the brief is normally the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Around smaller places such as Plean, washrooms and kitchens are found in hotels, pubs, schools, care homes and halls. Black sealant usually can’t be cleaned, so it is removed and replaced with anti-mould sanitary silicone.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas
What shapes the price:
- Phasing around occupants
- Which sealant the job calls for
- How accessible the joints are
- The size and state of each joint
Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote and we will explain how it’s made up.
What we need to price the job
We can often quote from photos and a few details. Please tell us:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- The postcode of the building
- The product your specification calls for
- Any dates the work must fit around
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
On site: what to expect
Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked, ready for your sign-off. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Plean is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- We survey each room, count the joints and note anything behind them that needs another trade.
- A phasing plan keeps part of the building’s facilities in use at all times.
- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
- Joints are cleaned, degreased and dried before sealing.
- We lay a sanitary silicone bead and tool it smooth so it is easy to clean.
- Each room is handed back once the sealant has had its cure time.
Before we start on site
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Make sure the joints can be reached

Related advice
When to call us in Plean
Commercial cleaning is harder on sealant than everyday use. Strong chemicals, scourers and jet washing roughen, discolour or lift a bead so grime sticks to the damaged surface.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling
- Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
- Users noticing mouldy joints
- Open joints along basins and vanity units
Around Plean, washroom joints are resealed by removing the old silicone completely and laying anti-mould sanitary silicone on dry surfaces.
Before you book anyone
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
Why deal with it now?
Running fresh silicone along a failed bead hides the problem briefly. It doesn’t bond, so it peels and traps dirt behind it. Full removal and proper cleaning is what makes the new joint last. Around smaller places like Plean, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Early resealing prevents it.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
Why us?
- Public liability insurance in place
- Specification-led, product-correct work
- Colour options checked against the specified product
- Commercial sealant work since 2005

Looking after the joints
Regular inspection catches problems early. In particular:
- Share your site rules when you send details
- Report faulty extraction promptly
- Keep washrooms out of use until we say the sealant has cured
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
Ask your cleaning team to use gentle products and soft cloths on sealant. Strong acids, solvents and scourers wear the surface and give mould a start.
A few failed joints can be resealed with hardly any disruption. Left until every washroom is affected, it becomes a bigger programme and more closures to manage.
FAQs: Plean
Is Plean off your patch?
Not at all. Plean is within our area. Every Scottish council area is within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Will the toilets in our Plean building be out of use?
Rarely all at once: work is phased so some facilities are always available. Sanitary silicone needs time to cure before the area is used, and we will tell you how long for the product used.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Each site asks for different documents, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Is it possible to just clean mouldy silicone?
Cleaning may lighten it, but the mould returns. We replace the sealant with an anti-mould sanitary grade and point out if ventilation is part of the problem.
Is there a guarantee on the work?
Every job carries our 12-month guarantee. It applies to our workmanship, not to plumbing leaks or damp from poor ventilation.
How many days will you need on site?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
