When it isn’t the sealant
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Panel boards already damaged by water
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
If you’re not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Vanity units and basins
- Kitchens and tea points
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Urinals and WCs
Washroom sealing in Town Yetholm, done properly
In a busy washroom, the sealant typically gives up long before the tiles or fittings. 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. If you are dealing with gaps where vanity tops meet the wall and resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Town Yetholm is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Hotels and holiday accommodation in rural Scotland have busy and quiet seasons, so washroom work is often best planned for quieter months.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Leave it or put it right?
Sealing on top of old silicone saves nothing. Silicone won’t grip silicone, so it lifts and holds moisture underneath. Full removal and proper cleaning is what makes the new joint last. Renewing every failing joint on one visit is the sensible approach for a place like Town Yetholm. Send photographs and we will quote for everything together.
The price depends on the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

Owners, agents and contractors
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Your questions answered
Do we have to close all our washrooms in Town Yetholm for resealing?
Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. Sanitary silicone needs time to cure before the area is used, and we will tell you how long for the product used.
Is Town Yetholm off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Every Scottish council area is within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Do you guarantee washroom sealing?
A 12-month guarantee covers the work. It applies to our workmanship, not to plumbing leaks or damp from poor ventilation.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
Can you send site paperwork?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Is colour matching possible?
It depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
What will the job cost?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
How a job runs
Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked, ready for your sign-off. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. For a building near Town Yetholm, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- First, the phasing is agreed so facilities stay open.
- Anything behind the joints that needs another trade is flagged.
- Old sealant is stripped and the faces prepared.
- We reseal with the grade suited to each area.
- We give you a reopening time for every room.
Before we start on site
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed

After the work
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
- Note failing joints building by building
- Respect the cure time before reopening each room
- Share your site rules when you send details
Where possible, have shower floors and trays squeegeed after busy periods. Standing water on a joint all day shortens its life.
Water getting behind IPS panels and vanity units can swell the boards. Once that happens, a reseal won’t fix them.
