Should maintenance staff do it?
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Toilets, showers and kitchens around Cranmore
Cranmore is within about 1 mile of the coast, and places by the sea often rely on visitors, so their hotels and holiday lets see heavy seasonal use. Heavy seasonal use is hard on shower and basin sealant, and the quieter months are the natural time to reseal.
Pupil toilets at schools like Shalfleet Church of England Primary School take heavy daily use, and the holidays give the window to reseal. Staff changing rooms and patient toilets at places like Lymington New Forest Hospital, 5.9 miles north-west of Cranmore, need cleanable, sound silicone. For buildings on a site such as Porchfield Business Park, 2.7 miles to the east of Cranmore, washrooms and tea points can be resealed in phases through the working week.

Other services in Cranmore
Leave it or put it right?
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 Cranmore, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

FAQs: Cranmore
Is Cranmore off your patch?
No. Places such as Cranmore are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Will the toilets in our Cranmore building be out of use?
Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. Each area is handed back once the sealant has cured enough to use.
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.
Is it OK to put new silicone on top of the old?
The failed bead is always removed. Fresh silicone can’t key to an old bead, so sealing over it soon peels.
Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?
Typically not. Mould grows into the sealant itself, so it comes back however often it’s cleaned. Replacing the bead is the lasting answer.
Do you do washroom sealing in healthcare settings?
Yes, healthcare and care settings are part of our work. Any records you need are confirmed with the quote.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Aftercare for building managers
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Report faulty extraction promptly
- Act on the first split you see at a shower tray
- Squeegee showers and trays after busy periods
- Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently
Where possible, have shower floors and trays squeegeed after busy periods. Joints that sit wet for hours fail sooner.
Water getting behind IPS panels and vanity units can swell the boards. After that, those parts need replacing rather than resealing.
When it isn’t the sealant
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Hollow tiles or loose panels behind the joint
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
- Condensation from failed extract fans
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will say what we think.
