What the job involves on each surface
Kitchens and tea points
We plan kitchen sealing around when the kitchen is in use. Your site hours and access windows set the timing.
Healthcare and care settings
Accessible and assisted washrooms are used and cleaned intensively so their sealant tends to fail sooner.
Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Afton Park
In a commercial washroom, sealant is normally the first thing to wear out. Basin tops, urinal backs, panel joints and shower trays put it under water, chemicals and daily cleaning, and once mould grows into it, it can’t be scrubbed out. The fix is to remove it completely and reseal with sanitary silicone containing anti-mould additives. The enquiries we see most involve panel joints letting water behind and shower tray joints that have opened up, across urinals and WCs, showers, trays and wet room floors and accessible toilets and changing rooms. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Afton Park tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
In and around smaller places like Afton Park, washroom work is often in halls, pubs, primary schools, care homes and holiday accommodation. Sealant that has gone black with mould usually can’t be cleaned, so it is cut out and replaced.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
Site rules come first: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. With the paperwork done, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact, and each area is checked before we leave it. Smaller jobs around Afton Park can be grouped with others nearby. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.
- Every washroom is checked joint by joint, with loose panels, leaks or damp noted for the right trade.
- We agree which rooms close and when, so users always have somewhere to go.
- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
- Each joint is degreased and left dry, because silicone won’t bond to damp or soapy surfaces.
- New sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives goes in and is tooled neat.
- You get a reopening time for every room, with signage left up until then.

Aftercare for building managers
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Clear standing water from shower floors where possible
- Tell us about infection-control or permit rules before we quote
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
We hand each area back once the silicone has had the cure time the product needs. We will tell you when the wet areas can be used, and it helps if signs stay up until then.
Boards behind panels and vanity tops can swell when water gets past a failed joint. After that, those parts need replacing rather than resealing.
Owners, agents and contractors
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
When it isn’t the sealant
Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Sanitary sealant for Afton Park buildings
Afton Park lies within about 1 mile of the sea, and places by the sea often rely on visitors, so their hotels and holiday lets see heavy seasonal use. Showers and en suites in constant use are where silicone moulds and splits first, which is why off-season resealing makes sense. A 2-mile radius around Afton Park takes in several hotels. Hotel en suites take daily use, and tired silicone at trays and basins is one of the first things guests notice.
Pupil toilets at schools like All Saints Church of England Primary School take heavy daily use, and the holidays give the window to reseal. Hotels such as Albion Hotel, less than half a mile to the south-west of Afton Park, have en suite bathrooms where tired silicone at the bath, tray and basin is replaced room by room. Church halls and community buildings, such as those at St. Agnes' Church, have kitchens and toilets used by many groups, and their sanitary sealant works hard.

Afton Park: questions and answers
Does a hotel in Afton Park need to shut while its sealant is renewed?
In most cases no closure is needed: we work room by room or floor by floor. The plan is built around your bookings.
Is Afton Park off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Do you use special sealant for toilets and showers?
Sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives for most washroom joints. Neutral-cure grades are used where acetoxy types could mark metals, stone or mirror backings.
Can weather delay the job?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Do you need to remove the old sealant?
The whole of the old bead is removed and the surfaces cleaned before resealing. That’s what makes the new joint last.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
How much does the work cost?
That depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we will price it properly.
