After the work
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Note failing joints building by building
- Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
- Report faulty extraction promptly
Mild cleaning products and non-abrasive cloths look after sanitary silicone best. Strong acids, solvents and scourers wear the surface over time.
Leaks through tray and wet-floor joints can go unseen until a ceiling marks below. At that stage, boards or ceilings may need repair, so reseal when you first spot a split.
Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Burford
Since 2005 we have resealed commercial washrooms for facilities teams, contractors and building owners. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with CSCS-carded applicators. There is public liability insurance behind every job. Every resealed washroom carries our 12-month guarantee. Most enquiries involve failed sealant behind washroom basins and panel joints letting water behind, across urinals and WCs, kitchens and tea points and showers, trays and wet room floors. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Burford is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
In a smaller place such as Burford, commercial washrooms tend to be in schools, pubs, cafés, surgeries, care homes and sports clubs. However small, each needs the old sealant removed completely and anti-mould sanitary silicone applied to clean, dry joints.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

What sealant work can’t fix
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:
- A dripping waste or valve behind a panel
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Kitchens and tea points
- Vanity units and basins
- Urinals and WCs
Why deal with it now?
A tired-looking washroom doesn’t always need a refurbishment. Where tiles, panels and fittings are sound, new sealant may be enough to put it right for now. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

Commercial washrooms in Burford
The area within 2 miles of Burford holds plenty of hotels. Behind every hotel door there’s a bathroom whose sealant will need renewing sooner or later. Rooms are done in turn so most stay available. Burford is about 69 miles from central London. Office toilets in the commuter belt are in use from first arrivals to last departures, and resealing in phases keeps facilities available.
For a hall at a building such as Church of St John the Baptist, resealing the kitchen and toilets can be fitted between bookings. En suites at hotels like The Highway Hotel, under half a mile north-west of Burford, are cleaned daily, which wears silicone over time. For a school such as Burford Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant can be renewed around term dates.

Your questions answered
Will our hotel in Burford need to close for the work?
In the majority of cases no closure is needed: we work room by room or floor by floor. Housekeeping and our team agree each day’s rooms.
Is a smaller place like Burford outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Can you reseal washrooms in healthcare buildings?
Yes. We work to your estates and infection-control requirements and any site permits. The work is phased around patients or residents.
Is colour matching possible?
It depends on the product specified. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so we will confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
Can you send site paperwork?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Is old silicone taken out first?
We always remove it. Fresh silicone can’t key to an old bead so a bead over the top fails quickly.
What the job involves on each surface
Healthcare and care settings
We phase washroom sealing so care areas are never left without facilities. Records you need can be confirmed with the quote.
Urinals and WC pans
Pan and urinal joints face constant cleaning and splashing. Once they discolour or split, they hold odours and make the room look neglected.

Advice
For managing agents and facilities managers
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.
