Washroom sealing in Densole
In a busy washroom, the sealant typically gives up long before the tiles or fittings. Basin tops, urinal backs, panel joints and shower trays put it under water, chemicals and daily cleaning and mould that roots into it can’t be cleaned away. The fix is to remove it completely and reseal with sanitary silicone containing anti-mould additives. If you are dealing with urinal joints that look unhygienic and black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift, we can put it right. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Densole tend to want the same three things: 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 Densole have busy toilets and kitchens. Tell us your opening times and quiet periods and we’ll plan around them.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we are clear about what is covered before work starts.

What happens if it’s left?
A tired washroom says a lot about how a building is run. Visitors notice black sealant before they notice much else. Resealing is a modest task with a very visible payoff. For buildings around smaller places like Densole, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.

What the job involves on each surface
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
We seal the visible joints; we don’t install or repair waterproofing below, and we’ll say if the trouble looks to be beneath the floor.
Changing rooms and gyms
Changing rooms in gyms and leisure centres stay wet and warm, so mould is a constant battle. We use anti-mould sanitary silicone throughout.
Signs you need washroom sealing in Densole
Much of the failed sealant we remove was applied over old silicone or residue. Silicone won’t adhere to a silicone bead, so it soon lets go.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Failed sealant behind washroom basins
- Sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling
- Split or peeling sealant at shower trays
- Mould spotting along silicone joints
Where you are responsible for a hall attached to a building such as St Luke's, its kitchen and toilets need sealant that stays cleanable.

General trades versus a specialist
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.

Questions we are asked in Densole
Can you work on a hospital site such as Royal Victoria Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University Centre Folkestone?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we will confirm them alongside the quote.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, and you deal with one contact throughout.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and any queries are raised before we start.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
