Your questions answered
Is a hospital such as Cowal Community Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Is Sandbank too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover the whole of Scotland. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
What sealant do you use in washrooms?
It depends on the joint. Most washroom joints take sanitary silicone, and food areas take a hygienic, food-safe sealant where food contact is possible.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
How soon can a washroom be used after resealing?
Each sealant has a cure time before it should get wet. Phasing is planned with the cure time in mind so facilities are never short.
Do you take on small jobs?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
How much does the work cost?
It depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a fixed quote.
How we handle washroom sealing in Sandbank
In healthcare and care settings, sealing is part of keeping surfaces cleanable. We work to your organisation’s estates and infection-control requirements and any site permits. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote. We work on showers, trays and wet room floors, accessible toilets and changing rooms and vanity units and basins, and what we’re called in for most is sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling and complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Sandbank from the first photographs to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
Around smaller places such as Sandbank, washrooms and kitchens are found in hotels, pubs, schools, care homes and halls. Mould grows into sealant in any wet room that doesn’t dry out, and the answer is removal and a fresh bead of anti-mould silicone.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

What sets the cost
To price the job, we consider:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Access and working height
- How much there is to seal
- The size and state of each joint
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.
Sending details for a quote
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- Specification clauses that apply
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Where we can, we combine work around Sandbank with other jobs nearby. Tell us how flexible your dates are.
- First, the phasing is agreed so facilities stay open.
- Anything behind the joints that needs another trade is flagged.
- Old sealant is stripped and the faces prepared.
- The right sanitary or food-safe sealant is applied.
- We confirm reopening times for each washroom.

Advice
Why act early in Sandbank
Sealing on top of old silicone saves nothing. Silicone won’t grip silicone, so it lifts and holds moisture underneath. Full removal and proper cleaning is what makes the new joint last. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, so it’s worth renewing joints around Sandbank before they leak.
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote.

Surface by surface
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
Changing rooms and accessible showers often have wet floors so the edges are checked carefully.
Changing rooms and gyms
Shower areas, wet floor edges and vanity areas all have sealant joints and we look at them as one job.
For managing agents and facilities managers
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
Doing it in-house
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Wet areas in Sandbank’s workplaces
Sandbank sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile, and seaside hospitality typically has a peak season that works washrooms hard. Bathrooms turned round daily in the busy months need sound, cleanable joints, which is why off-season resealing makes sense. A 2-mile radius around Sandbank takes in a number of hotels. Each has en suites, back-of-house toilets and kitchens with sealant that moulds and splits. Rooms are done in turn so most stay available.
Schools such as Dunoon Grammar School have toilets, changing rooms and kitchens that are best resealed in the holidays. At a hospital like Cowal Community Hospital (1.4 miles south of Sandbank), patient and staff washrooms are best done in short phases agreed with the ward. En suites at hotels like Ardtully Hotel, 1.1 miles to the east of Sandbank, are cleaned daily, which wears silicone over time.
