Common questions from Priesthill clients
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Leverndale Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Can you work in a care home near Priesthill with residents in?
Yes, with the manager deciding the order and timing of rooms. Any site rules, from signing in to infection control, are agreed before we start.
Can you reseal washrooms in healthcare buildings?
Yes, healthcare and care settings are part of our work. Any records you need are confirmed with the quote before we start.
How do you choose the sealant?
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.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we’ll price the work to it.
What sealant do you use in washrooms?
An anti-mould sanitary silicone for most washroom joints. We use neutral-cure versions on stone, some metals and near mirrors.
Is there a guarantee on the work?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship backed by public liability insurance.
About our washroom sealing in Priesthill
Accessible toilets, shower rooms and changing rooms have joints that work harder than most: shower trays, wet-room floor edges, basins and floor-to-wall junctions. An open joint there lets water track under flooring or behind wall panels, so we look at them closely. We work on vanity units and basins, showers, trays and wet room floors and IPS panels and cubicles, and what we are called in for most is kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean and open joints at the base of cubicle panels. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Priesthill, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Shops and offices at the foot of tenement blocks in Scottish cities often have compact staff washrooms and tea points. Compact, poorly ventilated rooms are hard on sealant.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

When it isn’t the sealant
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We’ll tell you if the real problem is one of these:
- A room that stays damp because ventilation isn’t working
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Quoting for work in Priesthill
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:
- Any access equipment needed
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
Before you send an enquiry
There’s no need for a formal survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Any specification or named product
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and a fixed quote will follow. To get it moving, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
What we’re called out for in Priesthill
Daily commercial cleaning wears sealant faster than people expect. 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:
- Mould spotting along silicone joints
- Complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms
- Panel joints letting water behind
- A new bead over an old one coming away
On a healthcare site such as Leverndale Hospital, 1.3 miles north of Priesthill, washroom work starts with the infection-control team’s sign-off.
What your quote should include
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- Who will actually carry out the work
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
From enquiry to sign-off
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. In a Scottish city, kerbside space and loading need planning, especially near the centre. Tenement closes, shared stairs and factor approvals may also be involved.
- Every washroom is checked joint by joint, with loose panels, leaks or damp noted for the right trade.
- We agree which rooms close and when, so users always have somewhere to go.
- We strip out the old bead and clean off the residue left behind.
- Each joint is degreased and left dry, because silicone won’t bond to damp or soapy surfaces.
- A bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone goes in and is tooled to a smooth, cleanable profile.
- You get a reopening time for every room, with signage left up until then.
Before we start on site
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need
Quotes
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

Healthcare and care settings
In healthcare, sealed joints are part of infection control. Your infection-control and estates rules are followed and any permits the site uses.
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
We seal the visible joints; we don’t install or repair waterproofing below, and we will say if the trouble looks to be beneath the floor.

Rooms are done a few at a time at times agreed with the home.
