Washroom sealing in Woodside
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. Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. Most enquiries involve gaps where vanity tops meet the wall and shower tray joints that have opened up, on showers, trays and wet room floors, kitchens and tea points and vanity units and basins. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Woodside is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Ground-floor premises below tenements in Scotland’s cities often have small staff toilets and kitchens. Small rooms that don’t dry out are where mould gets into sealant first.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

What we’re called out for in Woodside
Mop buckets, trolleys and knocks from users damage joints near the floor at skirting lines, urinal bases and around pans.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling
- Urinal joints that look unhygienic
- Kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean
- Users noticing mouldy joints
For a college such as Dundee and Angus College - Kingsway Campus (0.5 miles north-west of Woodside), half-term and summer give the windows for washroom work.
What to look for in a quote
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Their public liability cover
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
What the job involves on each surface
Changing rooms and gyms
Showers, floor edges and vanity units in changing rooms all need sound sealant and we look at them as one job.
Kitchens and tea points
Kitchen work can be phased around service. Your site hours and access windows set the timing.
Leave it or put it right?
Leaving the job until a shutdown often means living with it for months. Phasing lets it happen now, with facilities kept in use. Scottish city buildings take plenty of rain, and failed external joints let it into stone walls and around frames. Resealing promptly protects the stone and the interior.
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote.

How the quote is worked out
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, since sites vary so much. What we look at:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- The total length or number of joints
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- How accessible the joints are
A quote for washrooms and wet areas depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.
What to include in your enquiry
There’s no need for a formal survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Any specification or named product
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
Questions we are asked in Woodside
Do hotels near Woodside have to close for sealant work?
Almost never. The work is phased so most rooms stay available. The plan is built around your bookings.
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like Abertay University?
Yes. Education sites usually want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Will you quote for a small job?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Send details for a fixed quote.
How long will the new sealant last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
How many days will you need on site?
That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit usually takes a few hours for one toilet block, with bigger buildings phased across a number of visits. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.
Is it OK to put new silicone on top of the old?
We always remove it. New silicone won’t stick to the old so a bead over the top fails quickly.
Can washrooms stay open while you work?
The work is phased so there are always facilities open. We work through the building a room or section at a time. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Sanitary sealant for Woodside buildings

Washrooms used guest after guest wear their sanitary silicone faster, so we plan the work for quieter weeks where possible. The area within 2 miles of Woodside holds a good number of hotels. Hotel en suites take daily use, and tired silicone at trays and basins is one of the first things guests notice.
En suites at hotels like Hotel Indigo Dundee (1 mile south of Woodside) are cleaned daily, which wears silicone over time. At a university such as Abertay University, 1.2 miles south of Woodside, summer is the usual window for resealing residence bathrooms.
