Washroom sealing in Alfold Bars, done properly
In a busy washroom, the sealant typically gives up long before the tiles or fittings. Basin tops, urinal backs, panel joints and shower trays put it under water, chemicals and daily cleaning and mould that roots into it can’t be cleaned away. The fix is to remove it completely and reseal with sanitary silicone containing anti-mould additives. Most enquiries involve mould spotting along silicone joints and split or peeling sealant at shower trays, across kitchens and tea points, showers, trays and wet room floors and IPS panels and cubicles. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Alfold Bars, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Community buildings around smaller places like Alfold Bars have kitchens and toilets used by many people. Resealing sinks, worktops and WCs with anti-mould silicone keeps them clean and watertight.

Alfold Bars: questions and answers
Will all the washrooms in our Alfold Bars building be closed at once?
Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. Each area is handed back once the sealant has cured enough to use.
Is Alfold Bars off your patch?
Not at all. Alfold Bars is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
What will the job cost?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. To get one, call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with a description of the work.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards.
How long does a typical visit take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Will cleaning remove black mould from sealant?
Usually not. The mould is inside the silicone, so it comes back however often it’s cleaned. Replacement is the lasting fix.
Signs you need washroom sealing in Alfold Bars
Daily commercial cleaning wears sealant faster than people expect. Strong chemicals, scourers and jet washing roughen, discolour or lift a bead, and dirt and mould then get a foothold.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Stained sealant around pans and urinals
- Gaps where vanity tops meet the wall
- Split or peeling sealant at shower trays
- Users noticing mouldy joints
Schools such as Loxwood Primary School have toilets, changing rooms and kitchens that are best resealed in the holidays.

Around Alfold Bars, our work takes us to commercial buildings near The Crown pub and Fir Tree Copse, among other places. Green spaces nearby include Shillinglee Lake.
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchens and tea points
Worktop, sink and splashback joints in tea points take water and food. Sealed joints leave no gaps for food and dirt.
Healthcare and care settings
Assisted bathrooms and accessible toilets get heavy use, so their joints often need renewing sooner.
Owners, agents and contractors
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
Quoting for work in Alfold Bars
These are the things that shape the price:
- Any access equipment needed
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Phasing around occupants
- Removal of failed or old sealant
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
Before you send an enquiry
To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- Access details, including height
- The postcode of the building
- The product your specification calls for
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
Keeping the joints sound
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Report split joints at trays and basins early
- Tell us about infection-control or permit rules before we quote
- Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone
- Inspect washroom sealant regularly
Mild cleaning products and non-abrasive cloths look after sanitary silicone best. Aggressive descalers, solvents and scouring pads shorten its life over time.
Small numbers of failed joints are quick to phase in. Left, it tends to become a building-wide job with more phasing to plan.
On site: what to expect
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we are in, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. If others near Alfold Bars need work, visits can be combined. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.
- First, the phasing is agreed so facilities stay open.
- Leaks, loose panels or damp are pointed out first.
- Failed sealant and residue are stripped out.
- The right sanitary or food-safe sealant is applied.
- We give you a reopening time for every room.
Getting the site ready
- Flag any permit to work we will need
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
