What the job involves on each surface
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
Wet floors are common in accessible showers and changing rooms so the edges are checked carefully.

Urinal backs, troughs and slab joints are resealed with sanitary silicone once the whole of the old bead has gone.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, with the work itself usually taking half a day to a day per washroom, depending on the number of fittings.

Signs you need washroom sealing in East Saltdean
Occasionally a joint keeps failing because of a problem behind it: a loose panel, a leaking waste or water coming through the wall. We check for that first and say if it needs a plumber or another trade.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Open joints at the base of cubicle panels
- Complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms
- Kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean
- Sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling
At a hotel such as Olde Place Hotel, 1.3 miles to the west of East Saltdean, the quieter weeks are the time to reseal bathrooms.
Before you book anyone
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- How they’ll work around occupants
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
Aftercare for building managers
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Clear standing water from shower floors where possible
- Make sure washroom ventilation is running
- Photograph and log failed joints across the estate
- Add sealant joints to planned maintenance checks
Ask your cleaning team to use gentle products and soft cloths on sealant. Strong acids, solvents and scourers wear the surface and give mould a start.
Inspectors look at whether kitchen surfaces can be kept clean. Resealing sinks, worktops and splashbacks before an inspection is a simple step.

Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.

What happens if it’s left?
Leaving the job until a shutdown often means living with it for months. With phasing, the work can go ahead while most facilities stay open. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Renewing it in good time keeps the building weathertight.
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 fixed quote once you have the details.
