Washroom sealing in Canterbury, done properly
When mould has spotted a silicone joint, more cleaning won’t remove it. The growth is inside the sealant so it returns whatever the cleaning regime. Only replacement gets rid of it for good. If you have stained sealant around pans and urinals and shower tray joints that have opened up, we can help. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Canterbury is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Retail parks, shopping centres and business parks around large towns like Canterbury have customer and staff toilets that rarely close. Phased work keeps enough facilities open while the sealant is replaced.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

What else we do in Canterbury
After the work
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Clean sealant with gentle products and a soft cloth
- Add sealant joints to planned maintenance checks
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
Ask your cleaning team to use gentle products and soft cloths on sealant. Strong acids, solvents and scourers wear the surface and give mould a start.
In food areas, cleanability is something environmental health officers look at. Failed sealant around sinks and worktops is easy to put right in good time.
Common problems we fix in Canterbury
Cubicle panels, IPS panels and vanity units flex when people lean on them or doors are slammed and trays shift slightly with each user. If the joint wasn’t laid to take that movement, it tears or peels away.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans
- Shower tray joints that have opened up
- Failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen
- Resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed
Welfare facilities in units on estates such as Wincheap Industrial Estate (0.7 miles south-west of Canterbury) have showers, toilets and kitchens with sealant that works hard.

Busy facilities in and around Canterbury

We work a handful of rooms at a time, so the hotel keeps letting the rest. Four care or nursing homes sit less than 2 miles from Canterbury. Assisted bathrooms and wet rooms in care settings need sanitary sealant that stays cleanable. Rooms are done a few at a time at times agreed with the home.

Canterbury: questions and answers
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University of the Creative Arts?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Kent and Canterbury Hospital?
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.
How do you choose the sealant?
The specification comes first, if there is one. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Is Canterbury in your area?
Yes. We cover Canterbury. To discuss a job, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?
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.
When can showers be used after new sealant?
That varies with the sealant and the room temperature. Each room gets its own reopening time from us before we leave it.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.
