Owners, agents and contractors
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Sites in Wallyford can sit alongside others in a wider programme across East Lothian.
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
How we handle washroom sealing in Wallyford
We reseal washrooms and wet areas in offices, hotels, schools, universities, gyms, healthcare buildings and care homes, along with staff kitchens and tea points. Product and method follow how hard each area is used and cleaned. Most enquiries involve black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift and failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels, on IPS panels and cubicles, accessible toilets and changing rooms and vanity units and basins. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Wallyford first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Hospitality around smaller Scottish places like Wallyford tends to be seasonal, so washroom work is often best planned for quieter months.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will arrange a return visit.

Questions about Wallyford
Can you work on a hospital site such as Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like Queen Margaret University?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Are you insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
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.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
Do you cover Wallyford?
Yes. Sites across Wallyford are covered, and the same phone number covers every area.
Will all the toilets be closed at once?
Just the room being resealed is out of use. Rooms go back into use once the sealant has cured and we start the next.
Toilets, showers and kitchens around Wallyford
The sea is no more than about 1 mile from Wallyford, and places by the sea often rely on visitors, so their hotels and holiday lets see heavy seasonal use. Heavy seasonal use is hard on shower and basin sealant, which is why off-season resealing makes sense. Wallyford is in the east of Scotland, which is drier than the west. Mould in sanitary sealant comes down to ventilation and use more than the weather outside.
At a hospital like Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh, 4.8 miles west of Wallyford, patient and staff washrooms are best done in short phases agreed with the ward. Customer toilets in retail centres such as Preston Links Shopping Centre (2.2 miles north-east of Wallyford) rarely close, so resealing is phased.

What’s near Wallyford
There’s a railway station in Wallyford itself: Wallyford station. Nearby you will also find Fa'side Castle (0.8 miles south-east) and Musselburgh Museum (1.4 miles west).
Looking after the joints
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:
- Report split joints at trays and basins early
- Add sealant joints to planned maintenance checks
- Note failing joints building by building
- Keep extract fans working and vents clear
Where possible, have shower floors and trays squeegeed after busy periods. Joints that sit wet for hours fail sooner.
A split joint at a shower tray can leak for a long time before anyone sees it. At that stage, boards or ceilings may need repair, so reseal when you first spot a split.

What else we do in Wallyford
Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we look at:
- Working within restricted access windows
- The size and state of each joint
- Any access equipment needed
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.
What to include in your enquiry
There’s no need for a formal survey. These details are enough to start:
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
Pricing a project or setting a maintenance budget? We’ll quote against your scope and drawings you can plan around. For a chat about it beforehand, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
Our process
Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. Jobs near Wallyford are often grouped with others in the same area, to make the most of each trip. Let us know if your dates have any give.
- We agree which washrooms close and when.
- Leaks, loose panels or damp are pointed out first.
- Old sealant is stripped and the faces prepared.
- The right sanitary or food-safe sealant is applied.
- We confirm reopening times for each washroom.
Preparing the site
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
Quotes
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
Related advice
Common problems we fix in Wallyford
Panels and vanity units move slightly in use and trays shift slightly with each user. If the joint wasn’t laid to take that movement, it tears or peels away.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Gaps where vanity tops meet the wall
- A new bead over an old one coming away
- Panel joints letting water behind
- Urinal joints that look unhygienic
At a university such as Queen Margaret University, which lies west of Wallyford, summer is the usual window for resealing residence bathrooms.
What your quote should include
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
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. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
