FAQs for Evie

Is there a guarantee on commercial sealant in Evie?

Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.

Will you come out to Evie?

Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, islands included, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Is out-of-hours working possible?

It can be arranged for many jobs. We will confirm the working hours with your quote.

How long do rooms need to be out of use?

It depends on the product, but around 24 hours is typical. We tell your team the cure time for every area.

How do I get a quote for commercial sealant in Evie?

There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before we start.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.

Can you reseal every bathroom in a hotel?

Yes. With more than 20 years’ experience and over 2,847 projects behind us, we plan big jobs so the building keeps running.

What we’re called out for in Evie

A hotel shower or office washroom is used many times a day, and they’re cleaned with strong products every day. So the silicone ages faster than it would at home.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Failed floor-level joints in accessible wet rooms
  • Sealant failing again soon after quick repairs
  • Too many rooms to reseal without closing the building
  • Joints that need doing before an inspection or audit

In and around Evie, as anywhere, good commercial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

How to choose a mastic man

Workplaces and buildings in Evie

For seaside hotels, guest houses and holiday lets around Evie, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. Work on the islands has to be planned around ferry crossings and the weather, so the more notice, the better.

For jobs in and around Evie, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

Evie is about 11 miles north-west of Kirkwall, in the Orkney Islands. Evie gets the same service as everywhere we cover: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee. We cover 51 towns and villages across the Orkney Islands, from the larger towns to small villages.

We work across the KW17 postcode area for commercial sealant and the streets around it. Main roads around Evie include the A966. If you’re just outside Evie, we cover Tingwall (3 miles south-east), Settiscarth (5 miles south), Brinian (5 miles east), Abune-the-Hill (5 miles west) and Norseman (5 miles south). Remote and island addresses need a little more planning, so tell us where you are when you ask for a quote.

Should I try it myself first?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

Looking after it afterwards

How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Give housekeeping the cure time for every room
  • Put a squeegee in each shower
  • Keep strong chemicals and scourers off the joints
  • Keep extractor fans working and serviced

Extract fans need to work. Where a room has no window, the fan is what dries it out, and mould comes back faster without it.

A room that cannot be let or used is lost income. Catching faults early means they can be put right in a short window, before they become leaks that take the room out of use.

Why act early in Evie

Before an inspection, audit or busy season, sealant is easy to overlook. Planning the work ahead means rooms are finished and cured in time, without a last-minute rush. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

Why book with us

  • Colour agreed with you before work begins
  • A 12-month guarantee on all work
  • A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
  • Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

Different surfaces, different methods

Retail & leisure sites

Shops, gyms, leisure centres and restaurants all have joints that need sealing. Work can be arranged outside opening hours where that’s possible.

Welfare facilities

Welfare facilities, shower rooms and changing areas need to stay usable. We can plan the work in sections so some facilities stay open.

What we do, step by step

We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes as long as the scope needs, from one welfare room to a full building. Outside jobs in Evie need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.

  1. We walk the site with you and agree the rooms, the order and the hours.
  2. Every area is sheeted and the old silicone stripped out.
  3. The joints are degreased, treated and left to dry.
  4. Anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes into wet areas, with suitable sealants elsewhere.
  5. We check every room and give its cure time for housekeeping.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
