What we’re called out for in Port Mholair

Occasionally a joint keeps failing because of a problem behind it: a loose panel, a leaking waste or water coming through the wall. We look for it before resealing and say if it needs a plumber or another trade.

It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:

  • Open joints along basins and vanity units
  • Complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms
  • Urinal joints that look unhygienic
  • Sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling

Pupil toilets at schools like Aird Primary School take heavy daily use, and the holidays give the window to reseal.

What to look for in a quote

  • Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
  • Proof of insurance
  • Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
  • The terms of the workmanship guarantee

Questions to ask before you appoint anyone

Washroom sealing in Port Mholair, done properly

When mould has spotted a silicone joint, more cleaning won’t remove it. The growth is inside the sealant so it returns whatever the cleaning regime. Replacing the bead is the lasting treatment. If you have split or peeling sealant at shower trays and mould spotting along silicone joints, we can put it right, on showers, trays and wet room floors, IPS panels and cubicles and accessible toilets and changing rooms alike. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Port Mholair it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

For washroom work around Port Mholair, we plan so every room on the list is done in one trip where possible. Photos of each washroom and a count of rooms help us quote and plan.

We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Your questions answered

Is Port Mholair inside the area you cover, given it’s on an island?

Yes. Islands are part of our area, Port Mholair included. We group island work where we can and plan around the crossings.

What documents will you need to give us for a job in Port Mholair?

RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we’ll confirm it with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.

How do I request a quote?

The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.

Do you need to see the site first?

Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit before quoting.

Will all the toilets be closed at once?

Only the area we’re working in is closed. Each room reopens after the sealant’s cure time and we start the next.

Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?

Yes. We’re CHAS accredited, we are a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.

How many days will you need on site?

The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.

For managing agents and facilities managers

We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Port Mholair can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Na h-Eileanan Siar.

Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites around Port Mholair. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.

Commercial washrooms in Port Mholair

Port Mholair is within about 1 mile of the coast, and places by the sea often rely on visitors, so their hotels and holiday lets see heavy seasonal use. Showers and en suites in constant use are where silicone moulds and splits first, and the quieter months are the natural time to reseal. Port Mholair is on Scotland’s wetter western side. Where ventilation is poor, damp washrooms here tend to see black mould in the sealant sooner.

In any commercial washroom in or near Port Mholair, mouldy sealant is cut out rather than cleaned, and anti-mould sanitary silicone goes on clean, dry joints.

Port Mholair (Gaelic: Portvoller) is in Na h-Eileanan Siar. Port Mholair sits inside our coverage, and jobs here get the same fixed quote and 12-month guarantee as anywhere else. We work across 87 places in Na h-Eileanan Siar, large and small.

We take on washrooms and wet areas across the HS2 postcode area, for business premises of every kind. If your building is just outside Port Mholair, we cover Portvoller (1 mile south-west), Aird (1 mile south-west), Shulishader (2 miles south-west), Sulaisiadar (3 miles south-west) and Garrabost (4 miles south-west). Remote and island addresses take more planning, from travel and ferries to the weather, so give the site location in your enquiry.

After the work

Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:

  • Note failing joints building by building
  • Make sure washroom ventilation is running
  • Squeegee showers and trays after busy periods
  • Report split joints at trays and basins early

Keep extract fans working and vents clear. Constant damp lets mould take hold even on anti-mould grades, so get faulty extract looked at.

Boards behind panels and vanity tops can swell when water gets past a failed joint. Once that happens, a reseal won’t fix them.

What affects the price in Port Mholair

We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:

  • How accessible the joints are
  • The site’s rules and procedures
  • Which sealant the job calls for
  • Location, for remote and island sites

Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Sending details for a quote

To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Send us:

  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
  • Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
  • Any dates the work must fit around
  • The postcode of the building

Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we’ll put a fixed quote together. To get it moving, phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

From enquiry to sign-off

Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Port Mholair is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. External joints need a dry spell as well.

  1. We survey each room, count the joints and note anything behind them that needs another trade.
  2. The phasing is agreed so there are always facilities open.
  3. Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
  4. Joints are cleaned, degreased and dried before sealing.
  5. We lay a sanitary silicone bead and tool it smooth so it is easy to clean.
  6. You get a reopening time for every room, with signage left up until then.

What we need from you

  • Send any specification or drawings in advance
  • Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
  • Point out any areas we must not close

Getting a fixed quote

Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a site visit.

Advice

When to bring in a specialist

Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, 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.

Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
