Questions about Whitehills
Can you work on a hospital site such as Hairmyres Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is Whitehills off your patch?
No. Places such as Whitehills are covered as much as the big towns. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Is any job too small?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
How do you choose the sealant?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
How long before the toilets can reopen?
Each sealant has a cure time before it should get wet. We plan the phasing around that so facilities are never short.
Is it possible to just clean mouldy silicone?
Cleaning may lighten it, but the mould returns. We replace the sealant with an anti-mould sanitary grade and check the ventilation isn’t the cause.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Washroom sealing in Whitehills
Accessible toilets, shower rooms and changing rooms have joints that work harder than most: wet-floor edges, tray perimeters, basin tops and the line where flooring meets the wall. An open joint there lets water track under flooring or behind wall panels, so we look at them closely. Most enquiries involve complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms and shower tray joints that have opened up, on urinals and WCs, showers, trays and wet room floors and kitchens and tea points. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Whitehills first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Hotels and holiday accommodation in rural Scotland have busy and quiet seasons, so washroom work is often best planned for quieter months.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

From enquiry to sign-off
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Whitehills is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. 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.
- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- 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
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Flag any permit to work we will need

Wet areas in Whitehills’s workplaces
The west of Scotland, where Whitehills is, gets more rain than the east. Washrooms with weak extraction stay damp in this climate, and mould finds the silicone first. The area within 2 miles of Whitehills holds several hotels. Each has en suites, back-of-house toilets and kitchens with sealant that moulds and splits.
Hotels such as Bruce Hotel (to the north of Whitehills) have en suite bathrooms where tired silicone at the bath, tray and basin is replaced room by room. Customer toilets in retail centres such as East Kilbride Shopping Centre (1.2 miles north of Whitehills) rarely close, so resealing is phased.
Whitehills is about 1 mile south-east of East Kilbride, in South Lanarkshire. Our applicators travel to Whitehills for work on washrooms and wet areas. Whitehills is one of 134 places in South Lanarkshire on our list. For work in that direction, see our Glasgow page.

Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we take into account:
- Access and working height
- How much there is to seal
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.
Before you send an enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with what you know.
When to call us in Whitehills
Sometimes the sealant fails because something behind it is moving or wet: a loose panel, a leaking waste or water coming through the wall. We look for it before resealing and say if it needs a plumber or another trade.
Clients normally get in touch after noticing something like this:
- Sealant stained black around basins and showers
- A new bead over an old one coming away
- Failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen
- Users noticing mouldy joints
For a college such as South Lanarkshire College, 1.1 miles north-east of Whitehills, half-term and summer give the windows for washroom work.
What your quote should include
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- How they’ll work around occupants
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
Honest limits
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It isn’t the answer for:
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
- A room that stays damp because ventilation isn’t working
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll say what we think.

What else we do in Whitehills
Surface by surface
Urinals and WC pans
Pan and urinal joints face constant cleaning and splashing. Stained or split joints here trap smells and make the room look neglected.
Changing rooms and gyms
Gym and leisure changing rooms see showers running most of the day, so mould is a constant battle. Anti-mould sanitary silicone is the standard choice.
Leave it or put it right?
Open or mouldy joints are hard to keep hygienic which matters most in healthcare, food and education settings. A smooth, sealed joint can be cleaned properly. For buildings near Whitehills, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Send photos and we’ll quote for everything together.
A quote for washrooms and wet areas depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Call for a quote.
