Work for main contractors and building owners

If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.
Washroom sealing in Colwood, done properly
Not every silicone belongs in a washroom. Sanitary silicone contains additives that resist mould, and neutral-cure types are used where acetoxy silicone could attack some metals, stone or mirror backings. In food areas, hygienic or food-safe sealants are used where food contact is possible. If you have discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans and washrooms that look worn because of the sealant, we can help, whatever the surface. Whoever orders the work in Colwood, the brief is usually the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Farm shops, cafés and venues in converted rural buildings around places like Colwood have busy toilets and kitchens. We plan the work around bookings and opening times.
We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

What else we do in Colwood
When to call us in Colwood
Cubicle panels, IPS panels and vanity units flex when people lean on them or doors are slammed, and shower trays shift under foot. A bead that can’t cope with the movement splits along one edge.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed
- Urinal joints that look unhygienic
- Users noticing mouldy joints
- Mould spotting along silicone joints
Units at estates like Crosspot Industrial Estate, 1.5 miles to the south-east of Colwood, have welfare blocks whose showers and toilets see shift after shift.
What your quote should include
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
Why it’s worth doing now in Colwood
A tired washroom says a lot about how a building is run. Guests, clients, pupils and patients notice stained joints before they notice much else. Resealing is a modest task with a very visible payoff. Halls, stores and units around places like Colwood may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote and we will explain how it’s made up.
Why us?

Different surfaces, different methods
IPS and cubicle panels
Swollen or delaminated boards need replacing and we will point out any we see.
Changing rooms and gyms
Showers, floor edges and vanity units in changing rooms all need sound sealant, and we survey them together.
What sealant work can’t fix
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Vanity units and basins
- Kitchens and tea points
- Urinals and WCs
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
Questions about Colwood
Must a hotel around Colwood close while you work?
Rarely. Rooms or floors are done in turn, so the rest of the hotel keeps trading. Tell us your quiet periods and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Is Colwood too far out for you?
Not at all. Colwood is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
How do you choose the sealant?
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.
Is any job too small?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
Do you guarantee washroom sealing?
A 12-month guarantee covers the work. It applies to our workmanship, not to plumbing leaks or damp from poor ventilation.
Is colour matching possible?
Often, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.

From enquiry to sign-off
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we’re in, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. Jobs in and around smaller places like Colwood are normally planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- First, the phasing is agreed so facilities stay open.
- Anything behind the joints that needs another trade is flagged.
- Failed sealant and residue are stripped out.
- We reseal with the grade suited to each area.
- We confirm reopening times for each washroom.
Preparing the site
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
