Washroom sealing in Crumbles
Facilities managers, contractors and building owners have used us for washroom sealing for over 20 years. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member. There is public liability insurance behind every job. Every resealed washroom carries our 12-month guarantee. If you have failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen and gaps where vanity tops meet the wall, we can put it right, on IPS panels and cubicles, vanity units and basins and accessible toilets and changing rooms alike. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Crumbles tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Halls and community buildings near places like Crumbles are used by different groups through the week, and their toilets and kitchens show it. Resealing sinks, worktops and WCs with anti-mould silicone keeps them clean and watertight.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application.

How the job changes by surface
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
Floor edges in wet areas are where water most often escapes. Floor perimeters and sealant joints near drains are resealed.
Kitchens and tea points
We plan kitchen sealing around when the kitchen is in use. Your site hours and access windows set the timing.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Site rules come first: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. Once we are cleared to begin, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact, and each area is checked before we leave it. For work around Crumbles, we aim to finish in one 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.
- 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 confirm reopening times for each washroom.
Getting the site ready
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

Advice
Keeping the joints sound
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Clear standing water from shower floors where possible
- Note failing joints building by building
- Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone
- Make sure washroom ventilation is running
Include sealant joints in your planned maintenance checks. Check for mould spots, splits, lifting edges and open joints at trays, basins and urinals and log what you find.
Mouldy sealant only gets harder to ignore and users notice. Dealing with it while it’s just the sealant keeps it simple.
What sealant work can’t fix
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It won’t put right:
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
- Vanity carcasses that have swollen
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Wet areas in Crumbles’s workplaces
With the shore within about 1 mile, Crumbles counts as a coastal location, and seaside hospitality usually has a peak season that works washrooms hard. Washrooms used guest after guest wear their sanitary silicone faster, which is why off-season resealing makes sense. At about 52 miles from central London, Crumbles is within reach of the capital, in a commuter belt where offices and business parks are common. Office toilets in the commuter belt are in use from first arrivals to last departures, so we work a block of facilities at a time.
For a store at a site such as Sovereign Harbour Village Retail Park, 0.5 miles west of Crumbles, the staff room and customer toilets can be resealed in quiet periods. For a college such as East Sussex College Eastbourne, 2.8 miles to the west of Crumbles, half-term and summer give the windows for washroom work.
Crumbles is about 2 miles east of Eastbourne, in East Sussex. We cover commercial sites throughout Crumbles, whether it’s a single job or part of a planned programme. We work across 308 places in East Sussex. For work in that direction, see our Brighton page, about 20 miles away.

Questions about Crumbles
Is Crumbles too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as University of Brighton Eastbourne Campus?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, including public liability cover.
Is there a guarantee on the work?
A 12-month guarantee covers the work. It applies to our workmanship, not to plumbing leaks or damp from poor ventilation.
How long before the toilets can reopen?
That varies with the sealant and the room temperature. You’ll get a reopening time for each area before we leave it.
How do you choose the sealant?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, and you deal with one contact throughout.
Work for main contractors and building owners
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm them with the quote.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
