What the job involves on each surface
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
Floor edges in wet areas are where water most often escapes. We reseal the floor-to-wall junctions and around drains where sealant is used.
Urinals and WC pans
The joint between a pan and the floor is easy to overlook. We include them in the survey.
Washroom sealing in Charlton-in-Dover, done properly
In a busy washroom, the sealant usually gives up long before the tiles or fittings. Around basins, urinals, cubicles, IPS panels and shower trays it takes water, soap, cleaning chemicals and knocks every day and mould that roots into it can’t be cleaned away. We strip it out and lay new anti-mould sanitary silicone. If you’re dealing with open joints along basins and vanity units and complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms, we can help, on vanity units and basins, IPS panels and cubicles and urinals and WCs alike. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Charlton-in-Dover tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Around Charlton-in-Dover, washroom work typically comes one building at a time. A list and photographs let us quote and plan so it’s done in one visit where possible.
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.

Leave it or put it right?
Sealing on top of old silicone saves nothing. Silicone won’t grip silicone, so it lifts and holds moisture underneath. Full removal and proper cleaning is what makes the new joint last. In a smaller place such as Charlton-in-Dover, getting a contractor back for a second visit takes time, so we’d suggest renewing all the joints that are going, not just the worst.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.

Signs you need washroom sealing in Charlton-in-Dover
Much of the failed sealant we remove was applied over old silicone or residue. New silicone won’t grip the old, so it soon lets go.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling
- Gaps where vanity tops meet the wall
- Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
- Users noticing mouldy joints
For a site such as Buckland Hospital (0.7 miles west of Charlton-in-Dover), sanitary joints in clinical areas need sound, cleanable sealant and a careful method.
