From enquiry to sign-off
Inspect, seal, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Work on a big city site in Scotland usually involves inductions and permits. Pass on the site’s contractor rules when you get in touch.
- We survey each room, count the joints and note anything behind them that needs another trade.
- A phasing plan keeps part of the building’s facilities in use at all times.
- 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.
- New sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives goes in and is tooled neat.
- Each room is handed back once the sealant has had its cure time.
Before we start on site
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Arrange parking or a loading space

Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
We seal the visible joints; we don’t install or repair waterproofing below and point it out if water appears to rise from below.
Showers and trays
A tray flexes every time it’s used and is constantly wet. Tray perimeters are a frequent source of leaks.
Doing it in-house
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.

Questions we’re asked in Stobswell
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Kings Cross Hospital, something you do?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Can work at a site such as Abertay University fit around teaching?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Can weather delay the job?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Will you quote for a small job?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
How many days will you need on site?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Can you reseal washrooms in healthcare buildings?
Yes, healthcare and care settings are part of our work. Tell us what records you need and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Sanitary sealant for Stobswell buildings
Stobswell sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile, and places by the sea often rely on visitors, so their hotels and holiday lets see heavy seasonal use. Bathrooms turned round daily in the busy months need sound, cleanable joints, so we plan the work for quieter weeks where possible. There are 10 care or nursing homes within about 2 miles of Stobswell. Assisted bathrooms and wet rooms in care settings need sanitary sealant that stays cleanable. Rooms are done a few at a time at times agreed with the home.
At a hotel such as Hotel Indigo Dundee, under half a mile south of Stobswell, the quieter weeks are the time to reseal bathrooms. At a university such as Abertay University (0.7 miles south-west of Stobswell), summer is the usual window for resealing residence bathrooms. At a retail site such as Gallagher Retail Park, which lies south of Stobswell, public and staff toilets see heavy use, so mouldy or split sealant is best replaced in phases.

Maintenance after handover
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Make sure washroom ventilation is running
- Include joints in routine washroom inspections
- Keep a record of which washrooms need attention
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
If a joint we sealed fails within 12 months, tell us and we will look at it. Beyond that, regular checks keep small problems small.
Small numbers of failed joints are quick to phase in. Left, it tends to become a building-wide job with more phasing to plan.
