Why act early in Shandon
Room by room, the work is quick: it takes as long as the scope needs, from one welfare room to a full building. Each area is then left to cure for the time we give you, so planning the order matters more than the hours on site. In a Scottish city tenement, failed sealant affects more than one flat: water can reach the flat below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-stopping affect the whole stair.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Report broken fans quickly
- Plan resealing around quiet periods
- Ask cleaners to go gently on the silicone
- Act on lifting sealant before it leaks
Extract fans need to work. In internal bathrooms, a weak or broken fan lets moisture linger, and that’s what keeps mould away.
Rooms out of use cost a hotel or landlord money. Catching faults early means they can be put right in a short window, instead of turning into a leak that closes the room.
