Commercial sealant for homes and businesses in Germiston
With over 20 years in sealant work, we are a fully insured, ARBOMaster approved team. If your site needs RAMS or insurance details, tell us, and we’ll confirm what we can provide. Typical jobs include worktop sealant that has shrunk and stained and too many rooms to reseal without closing the building, on hotel bathrooms, office washrooms & kitchens and student & care accommodation.
Commercial work around smaller Scottish places tends to mean hotels, guest houses, schools and halls rather than offices. All of them have washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints that need looking after.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Landlord and commercial work in Germiston
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Common questions in Germiston
Will you come out to Germiston?
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.
What guarantee comes with commercial sealant in Germiston?
All our work, in Germiston and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
Can you supply method statements and risk assessments?
We are fully insured, and we’ll go through your site’s requirements with you. We will confirm what we can supply when we quote.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
How long does the job take?
That depends on how much there is to do, but as a guide it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of rooms. We will tell you when we quote.
When can guests or staff use the shower again?
Around 24 hours is typical for sanitary silicone. We tell your team the cure time for every area.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Why it’s worth doing now in Germiston
Patching the worst rooms as complaints come in is hard to manage. A planned programme deals with every room in order, with less disruption and one clear quote. Around Germiston, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why us?
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Commercial sealant in Germiston: local notes
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Germiston, heavy use in the busy months is hard on washroom and kitchen sealant, and any building work there should leave fire-rated joints made good. Island jobs need planning around ferries and the weather, so give us as much notice as you can.
Around Germiston, as everywhere, commercial sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it. For jobs in and around Germiston, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

What we do, step by step

- We go through your site’s paperwork needs, such as RAMS, before work begins.
- Old sealant is cut out room by room and joints cleaned and treated.
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes into wet areas, with suitable sealant elsewhere.
- Rooms are handed back in order, each with its cure time.
How to prepare

What the job involves on each surface
Hotel bathrooms
Hotel showers and baths get used and cleaned every day, so we use anti-fungal sanitary silicone and finish joints smooth for easy cleaning.
Office washrooms & kitchens
Office washrooms and tea points are used all day, so we can work early or out of hours where that can be arranged. We reseal around basins, urinals, worktops and sinks.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Report broken fans quickly
- Add sealant to your planned maintenance checks
- Tell cleaning staff when each room can be used
- Log resealing so you know what’s due
Strong chemicals and scourers wear silicone out faster. A mild cleaner and a soft cloth is enough for the joints, with stronger products kept off the bead.
Black sealant in a staff washroom or guest bathroom draws complaints. Left long enough, it spreads through the bead, and only replacement fixes it.
