Advice
Washroom sealing in Brighton, done properly
You can’t shut every toilet in an office, school or hotel at once. We phase the work one washroom, one bank of cubicles or one changing room at a time, so there are always facilities in use. Give us your site hours and access windows and the phasing is planned around them. We work on showers, trays and wet room floors, urinals and WCs and IPS panels and cubicles, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans and failed sealant behind washroom basins.

A large place such as Brighton tends to have hotels, gyms, schools, hospitals and offices, all with washrooms and wet areas. Their vanity units, showers, urinals and wet floors all have sealant that eventually moulds or splits.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

When to bring in a specialist
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, 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.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchens and tea points
Kitchen work can be phased around service. Your site hours and access windows set the timing.
Changing rooms and gyms
Showers, floor edges and vanity units in changing rooms all need sound sealant, and we survey them together.
What sealant work can’t fix
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Leaks through tanking or membranes below the finishes
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
- Swollen or delaminated boards behind panels or vanity tops
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Keeping Brighton washrooms open while we work
The sea is no more than about 1 mile from Brighton, and coastal hotels, guest houses and holiday sites tend to fill up in the busy months. Showers and en suites in constant use are where silicone moulds and splits first, and the quieter months are the natural time to reseal. Brighton has plenty of hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Hotel en suites take daily use, and tired silicone at trays and basins is one of the first things guests notice. Rooms are done in turn so most stay available.
For a hotel such as Part Of The Greenwood Lodge Hotel, which lies south-west of Brighton, resealing en suites a few rooms at a time keeps the rest available. Halls of residence and teaching buildings at universities such as University of Brighton Moulesecoomb Campus, 0.9 miles north-east of Brighton, are easiest to reseal during vacations. Units at estates like Centenary Industrial Estate, less than half a mile to the north of Brighton, have welfare blocks whose showers and toilets see shift after shift.

Questions we’re asked in Brighton
Is a hospital such as Brighton General Hospital somewhere you can work?
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.
Can you work in a care home near Brighton with residents in?
Yes, with the manager deciding the order and timing of rooms. Noise and disruption are kept to a minimum.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, let us know and we’ll send them with the quote.
What guarantee comes with washroom resealing?
Every job carries our 12-month guarantee. It applies to our workmanship, not to plumbing leaks or damp from poor ventilation.
When can the area be used after sealing?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we’ll confirm the curing time on the day.
Is old silicone taken out first?
We always remove it. New silicone won’t stick to the old so a bead over the top fails quickly.
Are you insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.

Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.
Aftercare for building managers
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:
- Act on the first split you see at a shower tray
- Keep extract fans working and vents clear
- Tell us about infection-control or permit rules before we quote
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
Any failure in our workmanship within the 12-month guarantee is ours to put right. Beyond that, regular checks keep small problems small.
Water getting behind IPS panels and vanity units can swell the boards. After that, those parts need replacing rather than resealing.
