Washroom sealing in Durlock, done properly
When mould has spotted a silicone joint, more cleaning won’t remove it. The growth is inside the sealant, which is why it comes back however often it is treated. Only replacement gets rid of it for good. If you are dealing with mould spotting along silicone joints and sealant lifting along a tray edge, we can help, on IPS panels and cubicles, urinals and WCs and accessible toilets and changing rooms alike. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Durlock, preparation and product choice get the time they need.

Advice
FAQs: Durlock
What paperwork can you provide for a job in Durlock?
We will confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details, with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
Will the toilets in our Durlock building be out of use?
Usually only some of them, for a short time. We work in phases so other facilities stay open. We will tell you the curing time for the product before we start.
Which sealant will you use?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
Is old silicone taken out first?
The failed bead is always removed. New silicone won’t stick to the old so a bead over the top fails quickly.
Can you reseal washrooms in healthcare buildings?
We work in clinics, hospitals and care homes. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote before we start.
What will the job cost?
Each job is quoted on its own details. For yours, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
Which silicone is right for commercial washrooms?
It depends on the joint. Most washroom joints take sanitary silicone, and food areas take a hygienic, food-safe sealant where food contact is possible.
What else we do in Durlock
How the job changes by surface
Urinals and WC pans
The joint between a pan and the floor is easy to overlook. They are checked with everything else.
Showers and trays
A tray that rocks or has cracked won’t be fixed by sealant, and we’ll say so before resealing.
Keeping Durlock washrooms open while we work
Durlock is about 61 miles from central London, 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, which is why the work is phased.
Hotels such as The Lion Hotel (0.8 miles east of Durlock) have en suite bathrooms where tired silicone at the bath, tray and basin is replaced room by room. Office toilets at parks like Birnham Farm Business Centre, 1.7 miles to the south-east of Durlock, take steady weekday use, and mouldy silicone soon shows. At a school such as Ash Cartwright and Kelsey Church of England Primary School, changing rooms and kitchens need cleanable joints as much as the toilets.
Durlock is about 7 miles north-west of Deal, in Kent. Commercial clients in Durlock can call on us for washrooms and wet areas. Our Kent coverage takes in 931 places. London is covered too, some 61 miles away.

Sites close to Durlock are covered too, including Guilton (1 mile north-east), Ash (1 mile east), Staple (1 mile south), Nash (1 mile north-west) and Barnsole (1 mile south).

Commercial clients in Durlock
If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
Aftercare for building managers
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Share these points with them:
- Share your site rules when you send details
- Add sealant joints to planned maintenance checks
- Squeegee showers and trays after busy periods
- Make sure washroom ventilation is running
Keep extract fans working and vents clear. A room that stays damp will grow mould on almost anything, so get faulty extract looked at.
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.
What happens if it’s left?
Leaving the job until a shutdown often means living with it for months. Phasing lets it happen now, with facilities kept in use. For buildings around smaller places like Durlock, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Resealing early avoids that.
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
