Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Ardingly
Black spotting along a sealant bead is not a cleaning problem. The growth is inside the sealant so it returns whatever the cleaning regime. Only replacement gets rid of it for good. We work on urinals and WCs, IPS panels and cubicles and accessible toilets and changing rooms, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are sealant lifting along a tray edge and sealant stained black around basins and showers. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Ardingly tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Smaller places such as Ardingly still have commercial washrooms and kitchens: in halls, pubs, schools, care homes and farm-based businesses. Sealant that has gone black with mould normally can’t be cleaned, so it is cut out and replaced.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

Leave it or put it right?
Waiting for a holiday closure can leave failing joints in place for a long time. Phasing lets it happen now, with facilities kept in use. Around Ardingly, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Send photos of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
Pricing washrooms and wet areas depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.

General trades versus a specialist
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
From enquiry to sign-off
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. Jobs in and around smaller places like Ardingly are normally planned as a single visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- Every room is surveyed and the failed joints listed.
- The fixed quote sets out the rooms, the products and the phasing.
- The whole of the old bead is removed.
- Each joint is cleaned and left dry.
- A sanitary silicone bead is laid and given a smooth tooled finish.
- Rooms reopen after the cure time.
Getting the site ready
- Send your site hours and access windows
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs

Questions about Ardingly
Is a smaller place like Ardingly outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Would you work within a site like Princess Royal Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is it OK to put new silicone on top of the old?
We strip every bit of the failed bead and wipe away the residue before resealing. That’s what makes the new joint last.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, including public liability cover.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, but the work typically takes a morning or so for a small washroom, longer where showers and changing rooms are included. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.
Will cleaning remove black mould from sealant?
Surface cleaning won’t reach mould that has rooted into the bead. We replace the sealant with an anti-mould sanitary grade and point out if ventilation is part of the problem.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
