FAQs: Tarbert
Will you travel to Tarbert on the island?
Yes. Islands are part of our area, Tarbert included. We group island work where we can and plan around the crossings.
What documents will you need to give us for a job in Tarbert?
We’ll confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details, with the quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.
Can washrooms stay open while you work?
Only the area we’re working in is closed. Rooms go back into use once the sealant has cured and we start the next.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, with one point of contact.
Will cleaning remove black mould from sealant?
Usually not. Mould grows into the sealant itself, so it comes back however often it’s cleaned. Replacement is the lasting fix.
Which sealant will you use?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Can you reseal washrooms in healthcare buildings?
We work in clinics, hospitals and care homes. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote.
Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How much existing material needs removing
- Location, for remote and island sites
- The size and state of each joint
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain how it’s made up.
What we need to price the job
To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Specification clauses that apply
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule and a fixed quote comes back to you. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
When it isn’t the sealant
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Condensation from failed extract fans
- A dripping waste or valve behind a panel
- Leaks through tanking or membranes below the finishes
If you are not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Vanity units and basins
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Urinals and WCs
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Kitchens and tea points
Aftercare for building managers
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
- Include joints in routine washroom inspections
- Report faulty extraction promptly
Where possible, have shower floors and trays squeegeed after busy periods. Joints that sit wet for hours fail sooner.
Water getting behind IPS panels and vanity units can swell the boards. After that, those parts need replacing rather than resealing.

Busy facilities in and around Tarbert
The sea is no more than about 1 mile from Tarbert, and seaside hospitality typically has a peak season that works washrooms hard. Showers and en suites in constant use are where silicone moulds and splits first, so we plan the work for quieter weeks where possible. Work on Tarbert has to fit the ferry timetable and the forecast. Photos and a room list let us plan the visit around the crossings.
In any commercial washroom in or near Tarbert, mouldy sealant is cut out rather than cleaned, and anti-mould sanitary silicone goes on clean, dry joints.

Our process
On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, and the work usually takes a morning or so for a small washroom, longer where showers and changing rooms are included. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Tarbert. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- 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.
- Each room is handed back once the sealant has had its cure time.
What we need from you
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Make sure the joints can be reached

Signs you need washroom sealing in Tarbert
We often find acrylic caulk or general-purpose sealant in joints that should have sanitary silicone. They don’t stand up to constant water, and they stain, crack or wash out.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Gaps where vanity tops meet the wall
- Sealant stained black around basins and showers
- Discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans
- Washrooms that look worn because of the sealant
Hotels such as Hotel Hebrides, under half a mile south-east of Tarbert, have en suite bathrooms where tired silicone at the bath, tray and basin is replaced room by room.
