Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Alverstone
When mould has spotted a silicone joint, more cleaning won’t remove it. The growth is inside the sealant, which is why it comes back however often it is treated. Only replacement gets rid of it for good. Most enquiries involve failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels and sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling, across urinals and WCs, accessible toilets and changing rooms and kitchens and tea points.

Farm shops, cafés and venues in converted rural buildings around places like Alverstone have busy toilets and kitchens. Tell us your opening times and quiet periods and we will plan around them.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

How a job runs
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. The work itself typically takes a few hours for one toilet block, with bigger buildings phased across a number of visits, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. For work around Alverstone, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We inspect each washroom and record the joints to be resealed.
- You get a fixed quote with the phasing plan.
- The whole of the old bead is removed.
- Joints are degreased and dried.
- A sanitary silicone bead is laid and given a smooth tooled finish.
- Each area is handed back when ready.
Getting the site ready
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Warn occupants and staff about the work

General trades versus a specialist
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.

Why it’s worth doing now in Alverstone
Gaps and mould in joints give dirt and bacteria somewhere to sit which matters most in healthcare, food and education settings. A smooth, sealed joint can be cleaned properly. Converted and older buildings near places like Alverstone tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Basins and vanity tops

Showers and trays
A tray flexes every time it’s used and is constantly wet. Tray joints are where many washroom leaks start.

Behind every hotel door there’s a bathroom whose sealant will need renewing sooner or later.
Where you are responsible for a hall attached to a building such as All Saints' Church, its kitchen and toilets need sealant that stays cleanable. For a hotel such as Sandhill Private Hotel, 1.2 miles south-east of Alverstone, resealing en suites a few rooms at a time keeps the rest available.
