Washroom sealing in Ditchling Common
When mould has spotted a silicone joint, more cleaning won’t remove it. The mould has rooted into the silicone itself, which is why it comes back however often it is treated. Replacing the bead is the lasting treatment. If you have users noticing mouldy joints and mould spotting along silicone joints, we can put it right. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Ditchling Common? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.
In and around smaller places like Ditchling Common, washroom work is often in halls, pubs, primary schools, care homes and holiday accommodation. Mould gets into sealant in any washroom that doesn’t dry out, and once it’s in, the sealant is replaced.
We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

Common questions from Ditchling Common clients
Is Ditchling Common too far out for you?
Not at all. Ditchling Common is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you work on a hospital site such as St Francis Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
How do I request a quote?
There are four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step only needs photographs and a postcode.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.
How many days will you need on site?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work usually takes half a day to a day per washroom, depending on the number of fittings. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.

Leave it or put it right?
Leaving the job until a shutdown often means living with it for months. Phasing lets it happen now, with facilities kept in use. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Ditchling Common. Send photographs of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you’re ready.

Aftercare for building managers
Once the work is signed off, these steps help:
- Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently
- Note failing joints building by building
- Report faulty extraction promptly
- Clear standing water from shower floors where possible
Mild cleaning products and non-abrasive cloths look after sanitary silicone best. Strong acids, solvents and scourers wear the surface over time.
Mould in a joint spreads along the bead and into nearby grout and users notice. Dealing with it while it’s just the sealant keeps it simple.
Different surfaces, different methods
IPS and cubicle panels
Panel systems meet walls, floors and vanity tops at sealed joints. Those joints protect the boards behind from water.
Basins and vanity tops
Natural stone tops can be marked by acetoxy silicone and we choose a neutral-cure grade for them.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
At the end of each section, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. Rural sites near Ditchling Common may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we’ll build it into the plan.
- We survey each room, count the joints and note anything behind them that needs another trade.
- A phasing plan keeps part of the building’s facilities in use at all times.
- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- 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
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Arrange parking or a loading space

What sealant work can’t fix
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Panel boards already damaged by water
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
- Condensation from failed extract fans
If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer.
