How we handle washroom sealing in Tarves
In a commercial washroom, sealant is normally the first thing to wear out. Basin tops, urinal backs, panel joints and shower trays put it under water, chemicals and daily cleaning and mould that roots into it can’t be cleaned away. The fix is to remove it completely and reseal with sanitary silicone containing anti-mould additives. Site teams most often ask us about users noticing mouldy joints and open joints along basins and vanity units, on showers, trays and wet room floors, accessible toilets and changing rooms and kitchens and tea points. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Tarves is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Hotels and holiday accommodation in rural Scotland have busy and quiet seasons, and resealing washrooms in the quieter months keeps rooms available when they’re needed.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Should maintenance staff do it?
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. 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.
Wet areas in Tarves’s workplaces
The east of Scotland, where Tarves is, gets less rain than the west. Inside, ventilation and use decide how fast washroom sealant moulds, whatever the weather.
Washrooms near Tarves get the old silicone stripped out and a fresh anti-mould bead on dry joints. For a hall at a building such as Tarves Parish Church, resealing the kitchen and toilets can be fitted between bookings.

Looking after the joints
For the best life from the joints:
- Include joints in routine washroom inspections
- Report split joints at trays and basins early
- Keep extract fans working and vents clear
- Tell us about infection-control or permit rules before we quote
We hand each area back once the silicone has had the cure time the product needs. We will tell you when the wet areas can be used and signage stays in place until that time.
In food areas, cleanability is something environmental health officers look at. Resealing sinks, worktops and splashbacks before an inspection is a simple step.
From enquiry to sign-off
Site rules come first: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. Once we’re cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. For a building near Tarves, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- We start by inspecting the fittings and joints and flagging problems sealant can’t solve.
- We agree which rooms close and when, so users always have somewhere to go.
- The failed silicone is stripped and every face scraped clean of residue.
- Joints are cleaned, degreased and dried before sealing.
- A bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone goes in and is tooled to a smooth, cleanable profile.
- Each room is handed back once the sealant has had its cure time.
Before we start on site
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs

Questions about Tarves
Will the toilets in our Tarves 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 Tarves too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
Often, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Can washrooms stay open while you work?
Just the room being resealed is out of use. Rooms go back into use once the sealant has cured and we start the next.
Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?
Surface cleaning won’t reach mould that has rooted into the bead. We replace the sealant with an anti-mould sanitary grade and check the ventilation isn’t the cause.
Do you take on small jobs?
Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Send details for a fixed quote.
What sealant do you use in washrooms?
An anti-mould sanitary silicone in most cases. Neutral-cure grades are used where acetoxy types could mark metals, stone or mirror backings.
What happens if it’s left?
A tired washroom says a lot about how a building is run. Guests, clients, pupils and patients notice stained joints even when the room is otherwise spotless. Fresh sanitary silicone lifts a room with very little disruption. For buildings near Tarves, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Send photos and we will quote for everything together.
The price depends on the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a quote when you’re ready.
