Commercial sealant in Leith, done properly
Mouldy or split sealant in a commercial building causes more than a bad impression. It’s a cleaning problem, a leak risk and something guests and staff notice. Our applicators renew sealant across washrooms, welfare areas, kitchens and guest bathrooms. If you have leaks from showers into rooms or ceilings below and black, stained silicone in guest bathrooms, we can help, on student & care accommodation, rental portfolios and retail & leisure sites alike.
Scotland’s cities have offices, hotels, student flats, care homes and tenement blocks looked after by factors. In Leith, that can mean resealing washrooms room by room or fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables in common areas.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep a record of which rooms were resealed and when
- Leave squeegees in busy showers
- Keep extractor fans working and serviced
- Tell cleaning staff when each room can be used
Each room is handed back with its cure time, which is generally around 24 hours. Make sure housekeeping or cleaning staff know it so nobody showers or cleans the joint too early.
Water from a failed shower seal can travel: through floors, into ceilings and across into corridors. Dealing with the joint early stops that spread.

How it works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The work normally takes a few hours per room, so whole buildings are phased, depending on the size of the job. Parking in city streets around Leith can be tight or controlled, so it helps to know about permits or nearby bays. For flats, mention the door entry system and any shared-stair arrangements.
- We agree a programme with you: which rooms, in what order, at what times.
- Tell us what paperwork your site needs, and we confirm what we can supply before any work starts.
- In each room, the old bead comes out and the joint is 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
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any tricky access
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

What we’re called out for in Leith
A hotel shower or office washroom is used many times a day, and daily cleaning with strong chemicals wears sealant down. That’s why sealant fails sooner.
The problems people normally mention when they call are:
- Failed joints in office kitchens and tea points
- Rental bathrooms that need resealing between tenants
- Black, stained silicone in guest bathrooms
- Tired sealant ahead of a health and safety audit
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Leith School of Art, busy washrooms and kitchens can be resealed in phases so they stay open.

Landlord and commercial work in Leith
For anyone letting property in or around Leith, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and pictures by email help.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
