Washroom sealing in Tom nan Ragh, done properly
Since 2005 we have resealed commercial washrooms for facilities teams, contractors and building owners. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with CSCS-carded applicators. There is public liability insurance behind every job. Every resealed washroom carries our 12-month guarantee. The enquiries we see most involve shower tray joints that have opened up and failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen, across vanity units and basins, IPS panels and cubicles and showers, trays and wet room floors. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Tom nan Ragh tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
For washroom work around Tom nan Ragh, we plan so every room on the list is done in one trip where possible. Photos of each washroom and a count of rooms help us quote and plan.
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.

Maintenance after handover
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Include joints in routine washroom inspections
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
- Keep a record of which washrooms need attention
- Mention any site permits or estates rules at quote stage
Any failure in our workmanship within the 12-month guarantee is ours to put right. After that, a routine look catches failing joints early.
Inspectors look at whether kitchen surfaces can be kept clean. Resealing sinks, worktops and splashbacks before an inspection is a simple step.
Sanitary sealant for Tom nan Ragh buildings
Tom nan Ragh is within about 1 mile of the coast, and coastal hotels, guest houses and holiday sites tend to fill up in the busy months. Washrooms used guest after guest wear their sanitary silicone faster, and the quieter months are the natural time to reseal. Being in the west of Scotland, Tom nan Ragh gets more rain than eastern areas. Washrooms with weak extraction stay damp in this climate, and mould finds the silicone first.
En suites at hotels like Cot House Hotel, 0.8 miles to the north of Tom nan Ragh, are cleaned daily, which wears silicone over time. On a healthcare site such as Cowal Community Hospital, 2.8 miles to the south-east of Tom nan Ragh, washroom work starts with the infection-control team’s sign-off. Halls linked to places like St Munn's Parish Church host groups all week, which is hard on kitchen and toilet sealant.

Our process
Where the site stays busy, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before the next one starts. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Tom nan Ragh is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, which is why we ask for photographs and a full list first. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- Every washroom is checked joint by joint, with loose panels, leaks or damp noted for the right trade.
- 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.
- We lay a sanitary silicone bead and tool it smooth so it is easy to clean.
- You get a reopening time for every room, with signage left up until then.
Getting the site ready
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Point out any areas we must not close

What we can’t put right
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Leaks through tanking or membranes below the finishes
- Vanity carcasses that have swollen
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Kitchens and tea points
- Vanity units and basins
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Urinals and WCs
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Questions we are asked in Tom nan Ragh
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Cowal Community Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Is a smaller place like Tom nan Ragh outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. 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.
Which silicone is right for commercial washrooms?
It depends on the joint. Washrooms and showers take anti-mould sanitary silicone while kitchens may need a food-safe grade.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.
Can you quote from photos?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
How do you choose the sealant?
The specification comes first, if there is one. 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.
Do you phase washroom resealing?
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. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
Owners, agents and contractors
Building owners and managing agents use us on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios around Tom nan Ragh. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.

Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.
