Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Cootham
Facilities managers, contractors and building owners have used us for washroom sealing for over 20 years. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with CSCS-carded applicators. There is public liability insurance behind every job. Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. The enquiries we see most involve discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans and kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean, on kitchens and tea points, vanity units and basins and urinals and WCs. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Cootham 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.
Community buildings around smaller places like Cootham have kitchens and toilets used by many people. Fresh anti-mould sanitary silicone at sinks, worktops and toilets keeps them cleanable.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: 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.

What happens if it’s left?
A failed joint behind a basin or along a shower tray lets water run where it shouldn’t. In a commercial building that can mean damaged boards, stained ceilings on the floor below and odours, and fixing that takes far more work than resealing. Around Cootham, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Send photographs of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

What else we do in Cootham
Doing it in-house
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
FAQs: Cootham
Is Cootham too small for you to travel to?
No. Places such as Cootham are covered as much as the big towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Must every washroom in our Cootham building shut while you work?
Normally only some of them, for a short time. We work in phases so other facilities stay open. We will tell you the curing time for the product before we start.
Can you quote from photos?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photos, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
What will the job cost?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. To get one, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
Often, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.
How a job runs
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. For work around Cootham, we aim to finish in one visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We agree which washrooms close and when.
- Leaks, loose panels or damp are pointed out first.
- Old sealant is stripped and the faces prepared.
- The right sanitary or food-safe sealant is applied.
- We give you a reopening time for every room.

For a hotel such as OYO White Horse Hotel, 0.7 miles to the east of Cootham, resealing en suites a few rooms at a time keeps the rest available.

Pupil toilets at schools like Storrington Primary School take heavy daily use, and the holidays give the window to reseal.

Quoting for work in Cootham
To price the job, we consider:
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Which sealant the job calls for
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.
Details that help us quote
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Your programme or deadline
- Specification clauses that apply
Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer.
