Washroom sealing around Cheriton: what changes locally
At about 56 miles from central London, Cheriton is within reach of the capital. Office washrooms on business parks see heavy weekday use, which is why the work is phased.
Pupil toilets at schools like Cheriton Primary School take heavy daily use, and the holidays give the window to reseal.

How we handle washroom sealing in Cheriton
Our washroom work covers offices, hotels, schools and colleges, leisure centres and gyms, clinics and care homes, plus the kitchens and tea points that go with them. Product and method follow how hard each area is used and cleaned. We work on accessible toilets and changing rooms, showers, trays and wet room floors and kitchens and tea points, and what we’re called in for most is failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen and panel joints letting water behind. For commercial sealant work in Cheriton, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.
In and around smaller places like Cheriton, washroom work is often in halls, pubs, primary schools, care homes and holiday accommodation. Mould gets into sealant in any washroom that doesn’t dry out, and once it’s in, the sealant is replaced.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Leave it or put it right?
Bleaching black sealant may lighten it for a few days, but the mould is rooted in the silicone and comes back. A full reseal deals with it and cleaners stop fighting a losing battle. Converted and older buildings near places like Cheriton tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
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 requirements come into it too.
Why us?
- Colour agreed before work starts
- CHAS accredited
- Colours chosen to suit frames, cladding or finishes where possible
- Old sealant cut out, never sealed over

Keeping the joints sound
Regular inspection catches problems early. In particular:
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
- Report faulty extraction promptly
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
- Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently
Squeegeeing showers and trays after heavy use helps. Joints that sit wet for hours fail sooner.
In food areas, cleanability is something environmental health officers look at. Resealing sinks, worktops and splashbacks before an inspection is a simple step.

Questions about Cheriton
Must every washroom in our Cheriton building shut while you work?
Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. Sanitary silicone needs time to cure before the area is used, and we will tell you how long for the product used.
Is Cheriton too far out for you?
Not at all. Cheriton is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
What guarantee comes with washroom resealing?
Our workmanship has a 12-month guarantee backed by public liability insurance.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Which sealant will you use?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
How do we ask for a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos. Include photos or drawings if you have them.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
What we’re called out for in Cheriton
Low-level joints get hit by mop buckets, cleaning trolleys and feet at skirting lines, urinal bases and around pans.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean
- Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
- Shower tray joints that have opened up
- A new bead over an old one coming away
Church halls and community buildings, such as those at Church of St Michael, have kitchens and toilets used by many groups, and their sanitary sealant works hard.
What to look for in a quote
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- How joint depth will be controlled
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
Diagnose, treat, sign off
When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, and the work usually takes a few hours for one toilet block, with bigger buildings phased across a number of visits. Smaller jobs around Cheriton can be grouped with others nearby. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- We start by inspecting the fittings and joints and flagging problems sealant can’t solve.
- The phasing is agreed so there are always facilities open.
- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- New sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives goes in and is tooled neat.
- Rooms reopen after the product’s cure time, and we move to the next.
Getting the site ready
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Advice
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
