Keeping the joints sound
After handover, these steps help:
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
- Keep a record of which washrooms need attention
- Share your site rules when you send details
- Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone
Where possible, have shower floors and trays squeegeed after busy periods. Joints that sit wet for hours fail sooner.
Inspectors look at whether kitchen surfaces can be kept clean. Resealing sinks, worktops and splashbacks before an inspection is a simple step.
About our washroom sealing in Bicknor
Not every silicone belongs in a washroom. Sanitary silicone contains additives that resist mould, and neutral-cure types are used where acetoxy silicone could attack some metals, stone or mirror backings. Where food contact is possible, we use a hygienic, food-safe grade. Site teams most often ask us about stained sealant around pans and urinals and sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling, on IPS panels and cubicles, vanity units and basins and kitchens and tea points. Searching for sealant specialists in Bicknor? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Halls and community buildings near places like Bicknor are used by different groups through the week, and their toilets and kitchens show it. Fresh anti-mould sanitary silicone at sinks, worktops and toilets keeps them cleanable.
Work we carry out in Kent comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will come back to it.

When to bring in a specialist
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
Honest limits
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be any of the following:
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
- Leaks through tanking or membranes below the finishes
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will tell you honestly.

Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we look at:
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- The total length or number of joints
- Distance, for remote addresses
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you are ready.
What to include in your enquiry
A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. It helps to include:
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- The postcode of the building
Send us photographs, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.
Questions we are asked in Bicknor
Is Bicknor too far out for you?
No. Places such as Bicknor are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like Canterbury Christ Church University?
Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we will plan the work around them. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Is old silicone taken out first?
We strip every bit of the failed bead and wipe away the residue before resealing. That’s what makes the new joint last.
What will the job cost?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
Do you need to see the site first?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, drawings or a joint schedule. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit before quoting.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Is it possible to just clean mouldy silicone?
Cleaning may lighten it, but the mould returns. New anti-mould sanitary silicone is the treatment and point out if ventilation is part of the problem.

How a job runs
Diagnose, treat, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Jobs in and around smaller places like Bicknor are usually planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- We agree which washrooms close and when.
- Leaks, loose panels or damp are pointed out first.
- Old sealant is stripped and the faces prepared.
- We reseal with the grade suited to each area.
- We give you a reopening time for every room.
Getting the site ready

Related advice
Do you need washroom sealing in Bicknor?
A lot of failed washroom sealant was laid over an old bead or a dirty surface. New silicone won’t grip the old so it peels away quickly.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Stained sealant around pans and urinals
- Shower tray joints that have opened up
- Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
- Users noticing mouldy joints
Office washrooms on sites such as Kent Science Park (2.7 miles north-east of Bicknor) are in use all working day, so resealing is phased to keep some open.
What your quote should include
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
