What sets the cost
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- How much existing material needs removing
- Phasing around occupants
- The size and state of each joint
- Access and working height
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.
Sending details for a quote
Good information means a firmer quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Any specification or named product
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
Need a figure for a tender or a budget? Send the scope and any drawings, and we’ll return a fixed quote that you can work with. For a chat about it beforehand, call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
How we handle washroom sealing in Port Logan
Black spotting along a sealant bead is not a cleaning problem. The growth is inside the sealant so it returns whatever the cleaning regime. Only replacement gets rid of it for good. If you are dealing with failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels and failed sealant behind washroom basins, we can help, on accessible toilets and changing rooms, showers, trays and wet room floors and IPS panels and cubicles alike. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Port Logan tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Hotels and holiday accommodation in rural Scotland have busy and quiet seasons, and resealing washrooms in the quieter months keeps rooms available when they’re needed.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and the quote explains what it covers.

Different surfaces, different methods
Basins and vanity tops
Stone and some composite tops need a neutral-cure sealant, so the product is chosen to suit.
Urinals and WC pans
We reseal around urinals and pans with a sanitary grade once the whole of the old bead has gone.
Sanitary sealant for Port Logan buildings
With the shore within about 1 mile, Port Logan counts as a coastal location, and coastal hotels, guest houses and holiday sites tend to fill up in the busy months. Bathrooms turned round daily in the busy months need sound, cleanable joints, so we plan the work for quieter weeks where possible. Port Logan is in the west of Scotland, the wetter side of the country. Washrooms with weak extraction stay damp in this climate, and mould finds the silicone first.
For buildings around Port Logan, washrooms can be done in phases so some facilities are always open. Around Port Logan, washroom joints are resealed by removing the old silicone completely and laying anti-mould sanitary silicone on dry surfaces.

General trades versus a specialist
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.

When it isn’t the sealant
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Vanity carcasses that have swollen
- Hollow tiles or loose panels behind the joint
- Condensation from failed extract fans
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Urinals and WCs
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- IPS panels and cubicles

- Vanity units and basins
- Kitchens and tea points
Work for main contractors and building owners
If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Port Logan can form part of a wider programme across Dumfries and Galloway.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we are in, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Port Logan. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- We survey each room, count the joints and note anything behind them that needs another trade.
- We agree which rooms close and when, so users always have somewhere to go.
- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- We lay a sanitary silicone bead and tool it smooth so it is easy to clean.
- Rooms reopen after the product’s cure time, and we move to the next.
Before we start on site
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
