Commercial Sealant in Gattonside
Problem with your washrooms, bathrooms and kitchens in Gattonside? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, with a 12-month guarantee.
- Repeated reseals that do not last
- Split sealant where wet room floors meet walls
- Whole floors of tired en suites
Why deal with it now?
Replacing a whole washroom takes time, money and several trades. When the fittings are sound, renewing the sealant brings it back with far less upheaval. If something else is wrong, we will say so. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.
Why Gattonside customers choose us

How we handle commercial sealant in Gattonside
Landlords and agents with several properties can have bathrooms and kitchens resealed between tenancies. Several addresses can go on one quote. We work on student & care accommodation, rental portfolios and welfare facilities, and the jobs we see most are mouldy washroom sealant that staff and guests notice and joints that need doing before an inspection or audit.
If you look after holiday lets, a guest house or a community building in or near Gattonside, the washrooms and kitchens need the same care as any city building, and fire-rated joints should be kept in good order.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Gattonside: your questions answered
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Gattonside?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Is Gattonside within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few photos.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We help you choose a colour that suits, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
The process
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work normally takes a morning for a small washroom, and a planned programme for bigger sites. Somewhere like Gattonside may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- The first visit is a look round the site to agree the scope.
- We agree when we will work, with early or out-of-hours slots where they can be arranged.
- Areas are protected and the failed sealant removed.
- Once dry, every joint is resealed and tooled.
- We let your team know the cure time for every area.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Tell us about any water getting in
How to get a quote
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved.

Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Different surfaces, different methods
