Washroom sealing in Rickarton
In a commercial washroom, sealant is normally the first thing to wear out. Basin tops, urinal backs, panel joints and shower trays put it under water, chemicals and daily cleaning and mould that roots into it can’t be cleaned away. We strip it out and lay new anti-mould sanitary silicone. Most enquiries involve gaps where vanity tops meet the wall and complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms, on IPS panels and cubicles, urinals and WCs and kitchens and tea points. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Rickarton tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Travel to smaller places like Rickarton is planned so the work is finished on one visit. Send photographs and a room list and we’ll give a fixed quote.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will come back to it.

Why deal with it now?
Bleaching black sealant may lighten it for a few days, but the mould is rooted in the silicone and comes back. Replacement deals with the cause in the joint and cleaners stop fighting a losing battle. For buildings near Rickarton, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.

When to call us in Rickarton
Low-level joints get hit by mop buckets, cleaning trolleys and feet, especially at floor edges and around urinals and WC pans.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Gaps where vanity tops meet the wall
- Stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops
- Shower tray joints that have opened up
- Panel joints letting water behind
Clinical washrooms at sites like Kincardine Community Hospital (3.2 miles south-east of Rickarton) are scheduled with the ward so the room is out of use for as little time as possible.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. Jobs near Rickarton are often grouped with others in the same area. Tell us how flexible your dates are.
- Every washroom is checked joint by joint, with loose panels, leaks or damp noted for the right trade.
- The phasing is agreed so there are always facilities open.
- The failed silicone is stripped and every face scraped clean of residue.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- New sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives goes in and is tooled neat.
- You get a reopening time for every room, with signage left up until then.
What we need from you
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Flag any permit to work we will need

What else we do in Rickarton
Commercial clients in Rickarton
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
Rickarton: questions and answers
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Kincardine Community Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Is Rickarton off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, including public liability cover.
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 will confirm with the quote.
Do you guarantee washroom sealing?
A 12-month guarantee covers the work. It covers our workmanship rather than damage, leaks from plumbing or ventilation problems.
Do you need to see the site first?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, and bigger or more complex jobs typically get a visit.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.
What sealant work can’t fix
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
- Swollen or delaminated boards behind panels or vanity tops
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will say what we think.
