About washroom sealing in Greater London

For clinics, hospitals and care homes, sealed joints matter for infection control as much as appearance. Your estates and infection-control requirements, and any permits the site uses, shape how we work. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote. Most enquiries involve split or peeling sealant at shower trays and kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean, across accessible toilets and changing rooms, IPS panels and cubicles and urinals and WCs.

Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off.

  1. First, the phasing is agreed so facilities stay open.
  2. Anything behind the joints that needs another trade is flagged.
  3. Failed sealant and residue are stripped out.
  4. The right sanitary or food-safe sealant is applied.
  5. We give you a reopening time for every room.

How we quote

The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Why appoint us

  • One number for every site we cover
  • Our applicators hold CSCS cards
  • Clear, fixed quotes
  • Standard and matched colours in many product ranges

Request a quote

A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

Commercial washrooms across Greater London

Across Greater London, washrooms and wet areas in schools, hotels, offices, leisure and care buildings all need sound sanitary sealant. We replace tired sealant with anti-mould sanitary silicone, area by area.

London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but external sealing in Greater London still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and damp or frosty mornings can hold it up.

London: Toilets at places like Southernwood Retail Park (1.1 miles south-east of London) are cleaned constantly, so silicone needs to be sound and smooth. For buildings on a site such as Southwark Bridge Business Centre (less than half a mile north of London), washrooms and tea points can be resealed in phases through the working week.

Commercial clients in Greater London

Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor. Programme, specification and site rules come first.

Whether you are a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.

Aftercare for building managers

Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:

  • Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently
  • Clear standing water from shower floors where possible
  • Leave signs up until the cure time is over
  • Add sealant joints to planned maintenance checks

Add washroom sealant to routine inspections. Check for mould spots, splits, lifting edges and open joints at trays, basins and urinals and photograph anything new.

In food areas, cleanability is something environmental health officers look at. Failed sealant around sinks and worktops is easy to put right in good time.

Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas

These are the things that shape the price:

  • Whether the work must be split into stages
  • Removal of failed or old sealant
  • How much there is to seal
  • Joint width, depth and condition

Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Details that help us quote

We can often quote from photographs and a few details. Please tell us:

  • When you need the work done
  • Specification clauses that apply
  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older
  • Photos of the joints, close up and from further back

Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

Leave it or put it right?

Waiting for a holiday closure can leave failing joints in place for a long time. With phasing, the work can go ahead while most facilities stay open.

What your quote should include

  • Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
  • What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
  • Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
  • Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?

When to bring in a specialist

What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

Questions about Greater London

When can showers be used after new sealant?

Each sealant has a cure time before it should get wet. We plan the phasing around that so there are always rooms open.

Does weather matter for sealant work?

It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.

How long will the new sealant last?

Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.

What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?

Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.

What guarantee comes with washroom resealing?

There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we carry public liability insurance.

Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?

Cleaning may lighten it, but the mould returns. We replace the sealant with an anti-mould sanitary grade and check the ventilation isn’t the cause.

Are you insured?

Yes. We are fully insured, including public liability cover.
