About our washroom sealing in Coryton
Accessible WCs, showers and changing areas have their own pinch points: wet-floor edges, tray perimeters, basin tops and the line where flooring meets the wall. An open joint there lets water track under flooring or behind wall panels so they get particular attention. We work on accessible toilets and changing rooms, showers, trays and wet room floors and vanity units and basins, and what we’re called in for most is shower tray joints that have opened up and open joints along basins and vanity units. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Coryton from the first photos to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Smaller places such as Coryton still have commercial washrooms and kitchens: in halls, pubs, schools, care homes and farm-based businesses. Sealant that has gone black with mould normally can’t be cleaned, so it is cut out and replaced.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Leave it or put it right?
A failed joint behind a basin or along a shower tray lets water run where it shouldn’t. That can lead to swollen boards, marked ceilings below and lingering smells which costs more to fix than a reseal. Older rural buildings around Coryton move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
Pricing washrooms and wet areas depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.

What sealant work can’t fix
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
If you’re not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will give you a straight answer.

Questions we’re asked in Coryton
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as Performers College?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Is Coryton too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Will all the toilets be closed at once?
We phase it so users always have somewhere to go. We work through the building a room or section at a time. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Do you guarantee washroom sealing?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we carry public liability insurance.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.
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.
Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas
Before we quote, we look at:
- Which sealant the job calls for
- How accessible the joints are
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Phasing around occupants
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 you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.
Details that help us quote
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- Specification clauses that apply
- What the building is and how it’s used
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
Aftercare for building managers
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Make sure washroom ventilation is running
- Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
- Clear standing water from shower floors where possible
Squeegeeing showers and trays after heavy use helps. Joints that sit wet for hours fail sooner.
A split joint at a shower tray can leak for a long time before anyone sees it. By then, other trades may be needed as well, so reseal when you first spot a split.
How a job runs
Where the site stays busy, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed before the next one starts. For a building around Coryton, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.
- We survey each room, count the joints and note anything behind them that needs another trade.
- We agree which rooms close and when, so users always have somewhere to go.
- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
- Joints are cleaned, degreased and dried before sealing.
- New sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives goes in and is tooled neat.
- Each room is handed back once the sealant has had its cure time.
Preparing the site
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
- Point out any areas we must not close
