About our washroom sealing in East Hanney
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. Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. We work on urinals and WCs, showers, trays and wet room floors and kitchens and tea points, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are stained sealant around pans and urinals and washrooms that look worn because of the sealant. A single leaking joint is often how a building in East Hanney first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Smaller places such as East Hanney still have commercial washrooms and kitchens: in halls, pubs, schools, care homes and farm-based businesses. Mould gets into sealant in any washroom that doesn’t dry out, and once it’s in, the sealant is replaced.
Work we carry out in Oxfordshire comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will come back to it.

Maintenance after handover
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Inspect washroom sealant regularly
- Keep washrooms out of use until we say the sealant has cured
- Keep extract fans working and vents clear
- Clear standing water from shower floors where possible
Ask your cleaning team to use gentle products and soft cloths on sealant. Aggressive descalers, solvents and scouring pads shorten its life and give mould a start.
Inspectors look at whether kitchen surfaces can be kept clean. Failed sealant around sinks and worktops is easy to put right in good time.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Signs you need washroom sealing in East Hanney
We often find acrylic caulk or general-purpose sealant in joints that should have sanitary silicone. They don’t stand up to constant water and they discolour and fail early.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Panel joints letting water behind
- Mould spotting along silicone joints
- Washrooms that look worn because of the sealant
- Sealant lifting along a tray edge
Schools such as St James Church of England Primary School have toilets, changing rooms and kitchens that are best resealed in the holidays.

Common questions from East Hanney clients
Do we have to close all our washrooms in East Hanney for resealing?
Rarely all at once: work is phased so some facilities are always available. We will tell you the curing time for the product before we start.
Would you work within a site like Abingdon Community Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Are you insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
How soon can a washroom be used after resealing?
That varies with the sealant and the room temperature. Each room gets its own reopening time from us before we leave it.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
How do you choose the sealant?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Can you send site paperwork?
Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we will confirm it when we quote.

What happens if it’s left?
Sealing on top of old silicone saves nothing. It doesn’t bond, so it peels and traps dirt behind it. Cutting out completely and cleaning back takes a little longer and lasts. Around East Hanney, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Send photographs of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote.

Our process
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. The work itself normally takes between a morning and a week or so, set by the number of rooms and the phasing you need, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Jobs in and around smaller places like East Hanney are normally planned as a single visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We inspect each washroom and record the joints to be resealed.
- You get a fixed quote with the phasing plan.
- Old sealant is removed completely and the faces cleaned.
- Each joint is cleaned and left dry.
- A sanitary silicone bead is laid and given a smooth tooled finish.
- Rooms reopen after the cure time.
Getting the site ready
- Arrange parking or a loading space
