How the job changes by surface
Basins and vanity tops
Vanity tops and basins are splashed all day, so the joint to the wall and around each bowl fails early. They are resealed with anti-mould sanitary silicone.
Showers and trays
If a tray moves too much or is cracked, it needs attention first and we flag that beforehand.

One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Caversham Heights from the first photographs to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Around Caversham Heights, washroom work typically comes one building at a time. Photos of each area help us plan the visit and bring the right sealant.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Related advice
Why deal with it now?
Bleaching black sealant may lighten it for a few days but the growth is inside the bead and returns. Replacement deals with the cause in the joint and cleaners stop fighting a losing battle. Over time, UV, weather and movement wear any sealant out. Renewing it in good time keeps the building weathertight.
Pricing washrooms and wet areas depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Your questions answered
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as University of Reading?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we will confirm them alongside the quote.
Must a hotel around Caversham Heights close while you work?
In most cases no closure is needed: we work room by room or floor by floor. Tell us your quiet periods and access windows and we will plan around them.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
What guarantee comes with washroom resealing?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we carry public liability insurance.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, tell us and we will confirm them with the quote.
Who decides which product is used?
The specification comes first, if there is one. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Do you need to remove the old sealant?
The whole of the old bead is removed and the surfaces cleaned first. That’s what makes the new joint last.
How the quote is worked out
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Access and working height
- Working within restricted access windows
- The size and state of each joint
There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
Details that help us quote
There’s no need for a formal survey. These details are enough to start:
- The type of building and who uses it
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Any specification or named product
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. To get it moving, phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
What sealant work can’t fix
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
- Loose panels, vanity units or tiles, which need fixing first
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will say what we think.
