Washroom sealing for Tannadice sites

Share the site address and what’s failing, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote or arrange a visit.

Common problems we fix in Tannadice

Much of the failed sealant we remove was applied over old silicone or residue. Silicone won’t adhere to a silicone bead, so it soon lets go.

What tends to prompt an enquiry:

  • Stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops
  • Gaps where vanity tops meet the wall
  • Complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms
  • Open joints at the base of cubicle panels

Church halls and community buildings, such as those at Parish Church And Old Parish Church, have kitchens and toilets used by many groups, and their sanitary sealant works hard.

What your quote should include

  • Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
  • Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
  • How they’ll work around occupants
  • Their approach to joint depth and backing

How to choose a sealant contractor

Washroom sealing in Tannadice

Not every silicone belongs in a washroom. Sanitary grades carry anti-mould additives, and neutral-cure versions avoid the damage acetoxy types can do to some metals, stone and mirror backings. Where food contact is possible, we use a hygienic, food-safe grade. We work on kitchens and tea points, IPS panels and cubicles and vanity units and basins, and what we’re called in for most is stained sealant around pans and urinals and open joints along basins and vanity units. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Tannadice it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.

Hotels and holiday accommodation in rural Scotland have busy and quiet seasons, so washroom work is often best planned for quieter months.

Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Our process

Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Tannadice is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. External joints need a dry spell as well.

  1. Every washroom is checked joint by joint, with loose panels, leaks or damp noted for the right trade.
  2. A phasing plan keeps part of the building’s facilities in use at all times.
  3. The failed silicone is stripped and every face scraped clean of residue.
  4. Joints are cleaned, degreased and dried before sealing.
  5. We lay a sanitary silicone bead and tool it smooth so it is easy to clean.
  6. Each room is handed back once the sealant has had its cure time.

What we need from you

  • Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
  • Let us know about inductions and permits
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand

Related advice

Surface by surface

Kitchens and tea points

Worktop, sink and splashback joints in tea points take water and food. Sound joints keep those surfaces easy to clean.

Urinals and WC pans

Joints around urinals and WC pans take splashes, cleaning chemicals and knocks. Once they discolour or split, they hold odours and make the room look neglected.

What we can’t put right

Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be any of the following:

  • A dripping waste or valve behind a panel
  • Condensation from failed extract fans
  • Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles

If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will say what we think before you book.

FAQs: Tannadice

Do we have to close all our washrooms in Tannadice for resealing?

Rarely all at once: work is phased so some facilities are always available. Each area is handed back once the sealant has cured enough to use.

Is Tannadice too small for you to travel to?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across every Scottish council area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Are you CHAS accredited?

Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

Can washrooms stay open while you work?

We phase it so users always have somewhere to go. One washroom, one bank of cubicles or one changing room is done at a time around your site hours and access windows.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.

Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?

Not for long. The mould is inside the silicone so cleaning only lightens it for a while. Replacing the bead is the lasting answer.

Will you quote for a small job?

Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Photos and a description are enough to start.

Washroom sealing in Tannadice: the local picture

The east of Scotland, where Tannadice is, gets less rain than the west. Drier weather outside doesn’t help a washroom with poor extraction, where mould gets into silicone fast.

Staff changing rooms and patient toilets at places like Whitehills Hospital (to the south of Tannadice) need cleanable, sound silicone. At a hotel such as Finavon Hotel (1.4 miles east of Tannadice), the quieter weeks are the time to reseal bathrooms.

Tannadice is about 5 miles north of Forfar, in Angus. Any commercial site in Tannadice is covered. Across Angus, 65 places are covered, Tannadice among them. We also cover Dundee, some 17 miles away.

Commercial clients in Tannadice

Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules.

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, with each stage agreed with your site contact.

When to bring in a specialist

Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
