About our washroom sealing in Stenton
Accessible WCs, showers and changing areas have their own pinch points: 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. If you have open joints at the base of cubicle panels and failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen, we can help. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Stenton, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Travel to smaller places like Stenton is planned so the work is finished on one visit. Photos of each washroom and a count of rooms help us quote and plan.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

On site: what to expect
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. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Stenton is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- We inspect each washroom and record the joints to be resealed.
- The fixed quote sets out the rooms, the products and the phasing.
- The whole of the old bead is removed.
- Each joint is cleaned and left dry.
- A sanitary silicone bead is laid and given a smooth tooled finish.
- Each area is handed back when ready.
Getting the site ready
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Send your site hours and access windows
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

Washroom sealing in Stenton: the local picture
Stenton is within about 3 miles of the coast, and coastal places often have hotels, guest houses and holiday accommodation with busy seasons. Bathrooms turned round daily in the busy months need sound, cleanable joints, and the quieter months are the natural time to reseal. The east of Scotland, where Stenton is, gets less rain than the west. Mould in sanitary sealant comes down to ventilation and use more than the weather outside.
Church halls and community buildings, such as those at Stenton Church, have kitchens and toilets used by many groups, and their sanitary sealant works hard. Clinical washrooms at sites like Belhaven Hospital (to the north-east of Stenton) are scheduled with the ward so the room is out of use for as little time as possible.
Stenton is about 7 miles east of Haddington, in East Lothian. Across the EH42 postcode area, the process is the same: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Our East Lothian coverage takes in 48 places, large and small. Edinburgh is covered too, some 23 miles away.

Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchens and tea points
In commercial kitchens, smooth, cleanable joints help keep the kitchen hygienic. Food-safe sealants are used where food may touch the joint.
Basins and vanity tops
Natural stone tops can be marked by acetoxy silicone and we choose a neutral-cure grade for them.
When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
- Vanity carcasses that have swollen
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Where we work in Stenton
- Urinals and WCs
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Kitchens and tea points
- Vanity units and basins
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
What sets the cost
These are the things that shape the price:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- The total length or number of joints
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.
What to include in your enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- The postcode of the building
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
A handful of photos and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Upload them with the quote form, or call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email to discuss it first.
Maintenance after handover
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Include joints in routine washroom inspections
- Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently
- Report split joints at trays and basins early
- Respect the cure time before reopening each room
Ask your cleaning team to use gentle products and soft cloths on sealant. Aggressive descalers, solvents and scouring pads shorten its life over time.
Water getting behind IPS panels and vanity units can swell the boards. After that, those parts need replacing rather than resealing.

Stenton: questions and answers
Will the toilets in our Stenton building be out of use?
Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. We’ll tell you the curing time for the product before we start.
Is Stenton too far out for you?
No. Places such as Stenton are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
How long does a typical visit take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Each site asks for different documents, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.
Who decides which product is used?
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.
How long will the new sealant last?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.

Building owners and managing agents use us on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.
