Washroom sealing in Cheriton
In a busy washroom, the sealant typically gives up long before the tiles or fittings. Basin tops, urinal backs, panel joints and shower trays put it under water, chemicals and daily cleaning, and once mould grows into it, it can’t be scrubbed out. We strip it out and lay new anti-mould sanitary silicone. We work on urinals and WCs, vanity units and basins and kitchens and tea points, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are gaps where vanity tops meet the wall and sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Cheriton first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
In and around places like Cheriton, hospitality kitchens and toilets see heavy use in busy spells. Smooth, sealed joints at worktops, sinks and wall cladding make cleaning easier, using a food-safe product near food preparation.
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.

FAQs: Cheriton
Can you work in a care home near Cheriton with residents in?
Yes, with the manager deciding the order and timing of rooms. We follow the home’s own procedures throughout.
Does a hotel in Cheriton need to shut while its sealant is renewed?
Rarely. Rooms or floors are done in turn, so the rest of the hotel keeps trading. Housekeeping and our team agree each day’s rooms.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
How do we ask for a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. The first step only needs photos and a postcode.
Do you do washroom sealing in healthcare settings?
We work in clinics, hospitals and care homes. Tell us what records you need and we’ll confirm with the quote.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.
What sealant work can’t fix
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be any of the following:
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Also in Cheriton
Different surfaces, different methods
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.
IPS and cubicle panels
A panel that has already swollen won’t be fixed by sealant and we will point out any we see.
Leave it or put it right?
Waiting for a holiday closure can leave failing joints in place for a long time. Phasing lets it happen now, with facilities kept in use. For buildings in places like Cheriton, one well-planned visit beats several small ones, so we’d suggest renewing all the joints that are going, not just the worst.
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Wet areas in Cheriton’s workplaces
Cheriton is within about 1 mile of the coast, and coastal hotels, guest houses and holiday sites tend to fill up in the busy months. Bathrooms turned round daily in the busy months need sound, cleanable joints, which is why off-season resealing makes sense. A good number of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Cheriton. En suite bathrooms, staff changing rooms and kitchens all need their sanitary silicone renewed in time. The work can go floor by floor, agreed with housekeeping.
Student showers at universities like University Centre Folkestone (to the east of Cheriton) see more use than most, and their silicone shows it. Healthcare washrooms on sites such as Royal Victoria Hospital, 1.3 miles east of Cheriton, are resealed area by area, under the site’s own infection-control rules. For a college such as Folkestone College, 1.1 miles east of Cheriton, half-term and summer give the windows for washroom work.
