What sets the cost
Quotes vary with the job. Expect it to depend on:
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Joint width, depth and condition

- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
The price depends on the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.

Washroom sealing in Birdbrook
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’ll confirm with the quote. The enquiries we see most involve sealant stained black around basins and showers and discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans, on urinals and WCs, IPS panels and cubicles and accessible toilets and changing rooms. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Birdbrook from the first photos to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
Community buildings around smaller places like Birdbrook have kitchens and toilets used by many people. Resealing sinks, worktops and WCs with anti-mould silicone keeps them clean and watertight.

General trades versus 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.
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
On site: what to expect
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. If others near Birdbrook need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- Every washroom is checked joint by joint, with loose panels, leaks or damp noted for the right trade.
- The phasing is agreed so there are always facilities open.
- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- We lay a sanitary silicone bead and tool it smooth so it is easy to clean.
- Each room is handed back once the sealant has had its cure time.
What we need from you
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

When to call us in Birdbrook
Sometimes the sealant fails because something behind it is moving or wet: loose fixings, a dripping trap or damp in the wall. We look for it before resealing and say if it needs a plumber or another trade.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Shower tray joints that have opened up
- Stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops
- Sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling
- Failed sealant behind washroom basins
Office washrooms on sites such as Blois Meadow Business Centre (1.7 miles west of Birdbrook) are in use all working day, so resealing is phased to keep some open.

Common questions from Birdbrook clients
Will all the washrooms in our Birdbrook building be closed at once?
Normally only some of them, for a short time. We work in phases so other facilities stay open. Sanitary silicone needs time to cure before the area is used, and we’ll tell you how long for the product used.
What paperwork can you provide for a job in Birdbrook?
We’ll confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details, with the quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.
Is there a guarantee on the work?
Every job carries our 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship rather than damage, leaks from plumbing or ventilation problems.
Do you need to remove the old sealant?
The failed bead is always removed. New silicone won’t stick to the old so a bead over the top fails quickly.
Do you phase washroom resealing?
We phase it so users always have somewhere to go. We work through the building a room or section at a time around your site hours and access windows.
Do you do washroom sealing in healthcare settings?
Yes, healthcare and care settings are part of our work. Tell us what records you need and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Do you take on small jobs?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
Leave it or put it right?
A tired-looking washroom doesn’t always need a refurbishment. If the finishes are in good order, replacing the sealant may do much of what’s needed for now. Around Birdbrook, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Send photos of each area and we will quote for the lot.
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

When something else is needed
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
- Condensation from failed extract fans
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
If you are not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
