How we handle commercial sealant in Walls
Hotel bathrooms take hard daily use and constant cleaning, so sealant there has a hard life. We work through rooms in batches, keeping most rooms available, with a cure time for each room so housekeeping know when to release it. Common call-outs are for worktop sealant that has shrunk and stained and rental bathrooms that need resealing between tenants, on welfare facilities, rental portfolios and student & care accommodation.
In a smaller place like Walls, commercial jobs are more likely to be a hotel, guest house, school, surgery or community hall than an office block. Each needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints kept in good order.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Tell cleaning staff when each room can be used
- Report broken fans quickly
- Log resealing so you know what’s due
- Put a squeegee in each shower
A squeegee in each shower is a simple help: less water sits on the joints between uses.
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
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of rooms. For a place like Walls, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We agree a programme with you: which rooms, in what order, at what times.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any tricky access

Why it’s worth doing now in Walls
Sealant is easy to forget until an audit or inspection is due. Booking it in good time leaves room for the cure time before the visit, without a last-minute rush. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
Why us?
- We’re fully insured
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Old sealant always removed completely
- 20+ years of sealant experience

Workplaces and buildings in Walls
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Walls, 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. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, and keeping sealant sound across a portfolio is part of that.
For jobs in and around Walls, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

How the job changes by surface
Office washrooms & kitchens
Kitchen and tea point joints are degreased and resealed, using a food-safe sealant by sinks where it’s needed.
Student & care accommodation
Vacant rooms make resealing quick and simple.
What sealant work cannot fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- A shower tray, bath or basin that’s cracked or broken
- Faulty shower valves and leaking traps
- Extraction that isn’t working, which needs an electrician or ventilation contractor
