Washroom sealing in Pollokshaws, done properly
Washroom joints need the right sealant, not whatever is to hand. Sanitary grades carry anti-mould additives, and neutral-cure versions avoid the damage acetoxy types can do to some metals, stone and mirror backings. Where food contact is possible, we use a hygienic, food-safe grade. If you have panel joints letting water behind and shower tray joints that have opened up, we can put it right, on kitchens and tea points, IPS panels and cubicles and urinals and WCs alike. For commercial sealant work in Pollokshaws, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Ground-floor premises below tenements in Scotland’s cities often have small staff toilets and kitchens. Compact, poorly ventilated rooms are hard on sealant.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

- A room that stays damp because ventilation isn’t working
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll say what we think.

FAQs: Pollokshaws
Will you work in a care home in Pollokshaws without moving residents out?
Yes. Care settings are planned area by area, at times agreed with the home. Tell us about any infection-control or safeguarding requirements and we’ll work to them.
Is hospital work, at somewhere like New Victoria Hospital, something you do?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Will you come and look before quoting?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photographs and measurements, and bigger or more complex jobs usually get a visit.
Is there a guarantee on the work?
Our workmanship has a 12-month guarantee, and we carry public liability insurance.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Are you insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
How much does the work cost?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. Send photographs or drawings and we’ll price it at a fixed figure.
Diagnose, treat, sign off

Advice
Doing it in-house
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
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.
Washroom sealing in Pollokshaws: the local picture
Pollokshaws is on Scotland’s wetter western side. In a damp climate, washrooms that aren’t well ventilated stay wet for longer, and sealant in a room that never dries out moulds faster. Pollokshaws has a number of hotels close by, all within 2 miles. En suite bathrooms, staff changing rooms and kitchens all need their sanitary silicone renewed in time. We work a handful of rooms at a time, so the hotel keeps letting the rest.
Halls of residence and teaching buildings at universities such as University of Glasgow Gilmorehill Campus, 3.2 miles to the north of Pollokshaws, are easiest to reseal during vacations. En suites at hotels like Ivory Hotel (0.9 miles east of Pollokshaws) are cleaned daily, which wears silicone over time. For a college such as Glasgow Clyde College - Langside Campus, which lies east of Pollokshaws, half-term and summer give the windows for washroom work.
