About our washroom sealing in Broad Street
Not every silicone belongs in a washroom. Sanitary silicone contains additives that resist mould, and neutral-cure versions avoid the damage acetoxy types can do to some metals, stone and mirror backings. Where food contact is possible, we use a hygienic, food-safe grade. Most enquiries involve black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift and complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms, across showers, trays and wet room floors, urinals and WCs and IPS panels and cubicles. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Broad Street first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
In and around smaller places like Broad Street, washroom work is often in halls, pubs, primary schools, care homes and holiday accommodation. Sealant that has gone black with mould usually can’t be cleaned, so it is cut out and replaced.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Common questions from Broad Street clients
Could you schedule work at a campus like Canterbury Christ Church University for the vacation?
Yes. Education sites normally want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Is Broad Street too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Is colour matching possible?
It depends on the product specified. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
Can you reseal washrooms in healthcare buildings?
We do. Your infection-control rules, estates requirements and permits are followed. The work is phased around patients or residents.
What will the job cost?
There isn’t a price list, because every site is different. Send photos or drawings and we will price it at a fixed figure.
Can you quote from photos?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, and bigger or more complex jobs typically get a visit.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
At the end of each section, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint with your site contact. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. Rural sites near Broad Street may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.
- We agree which washrooms close and when.
- Leaks, loose panels or damp are pointed out first.
- Old sealant is stripped and the faces prepared.
- The right sanitary or food-safe sealant is applied.
- We confirm reopening times for each washroom.
Preparing the site
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed

Advice
Aftercare for building managers
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Report faulty extraction promptly
- Keep washrooms out of use until we say the sealant has cured
- Report split joints at trays and basins early
- Mention any site permits or estates rules at quote stage
Keep extract fans working and vents clear. A room that stays damp will grow mould on almost anything, so get faulty extract looked at.
Inspectors look at whether kitchen surfaces can be kept clean. Resealing sinks, worktops and splashbacks before an inspection is a simple step.
What affects the price in Broad Street
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Access and working height
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Joint width, depth and condition
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
Sending details for a quote
We can often quote from photographs and a few details. Please tell us:
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Access details, including height
- The product your specification calls for
- Your programme or deadline
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.
How the job changes by surface
Basins and vanity tops
Stone and some composite tops need a neutral-cure sealant and we choose a neutral-cure grade for them.
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
Wet floors are common in accessible showers and changing rooms, so their perimeter joints get close attention.

Broad Street has a number of hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Each has en suites, back-of-house toilets and kitchens with sealant that moulds and splits. Rooms are done in turn so most stay available. At about 34 miles from central London, Broad Street is within reach of the capital. Business park offices have washrooms in daily use by staff, which is why the work is phased.
Healthcare washrooms on sites such as KIMS Hospital, 2.9 miles to the west of Broad Street, are resealed area by area, under the site’s own infection-control rules. At a university such as Canterbury Christ Church University, 2.6 miles east of Broad Street, summer is the usual window for resealing residence bathrooms.

Why it’s worth doing now in Broad Street
Gaps and mould in joints give dirt and bacteria somewhere to sit, and in kitchens, clinics and schools that is a real concern. A smooth, sealed joint can be cleaned properly. Halls, stores and units around places like Broad Street may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you’re ready.
