Washroom sealing across East Wickham
Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Why deal with it now?
Cleaning mouldy sealant only masks it but the growth is inside the bead and returns. Replacement deals with the cause in the joint and cleaners stop fighting a losing battle. Getting scaffold, permits or access booked in East Wickham takes effort, so it makes sense to deal with every failing joint while access is in place.
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Why appoint us
- Public liability insurance in place
- RAL and finish matching where the product range allows
- Constructionline member
- One contact handling all your sites

About our washroom sealing in East Wickham
From one staff toilet in East Wickham to washrooms across a whole estate, we work the same way: details first, then a fixed quote, then the work, then the 12-month guarantee. A few photos and a count of fittings are enough for a quick quote, or we can arrange a visit. Most enquiries involve mould spotting along silicone joints and panel joints letting water behind, on IPS panels and cubicles, vanity units and basins and urinals and WCs. A single leaking joint is often how a building in East Wickham first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
In East Wickham, as across London, commercial kitchens and washrooms need sealed joints that can be cleaned properly. Hygienic and anti-mould sanitary sealants are used where they suit, with food-safe products where food contact is possible.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Toilets, showers and kitchens around East Wickham
In London buildings, toilets and showers generally need to stay partly open, so we take one block of facilities out of use at a time. Two care or nursing homes sit less than 2 miles from East Wickham. Assisted bathrooms and wet rooms in care settings need sanitary sealant that stays cleanable. Rooms are done a few at a time at times agreed with the home.
On a healthcare site such as Memorial Hospital, 1.4 miles to the west of East Wickham, washroom work starts with the infection-control team’s sign-off. Toilets at colleges like Shooters Hill Sixth Form College, 1.5 miles west of East Wickham, take heavy use from students and staff alike.

What sealant work can’t fix
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It isn’t the answer for:
- Vanity carcasses that have swollen
- Hollow tiles or loose panels behind the joint
- A dripping waste or valve behind a panel
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Kitchens and tea points
- Urinals and WCs
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Vanity units and basins
After the work
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Clear standing water from shower floors where possible
- Report split joints at trays and basins early
- Share your site rules when you send details
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
Squeegeeing showers and trays after heavy use helps. Joints that sit wet for hours fail sooner.
Mould in a joint spreads along the bead and into nearby grout, and complaints follow. Replacing it early keeps the job to a reseal.
Signs you need washroom sealing in East Wickham
We often find acrylic caulk or general-purpose sealant in joints that should have sanitary silicone. They aren’t made for constant wetting and they discolour and fail early.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Stained sealant around pans and urinals
- Sealant lifting along a tray edge
- Mould spotting along silicone joints
- Failed sealant behind washroom basins
Toilets at places like Broadway Shopping Centre (to the south-east of East Wickham) are cleaned constantly, so silicone needs to be sound and smooth.
What your quote should include
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint

How a job runs
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 typically takes a morning or so for a small washroom, longer where showers and changing rooms are included, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. In East Wickham, most buildings stay in use during the work, so we agree zones and timings with the building or facilities manager. Phased work keeps the rest of the building in use.
- We agree which washrooms close and when.
- Anything behind the joints that needs another trade is flagged.
- Failed sealant and residue are stripped out.
- The right sanitary or food-safe sealant is applied.
- We give you a reopening time for every room.
What we need from you
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
Ask for a quote
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with what you know.

East Wickham: questions and answers
Can you work in a London building with booked loading and goods-lift slots?
Yes. Inductions, permits and timed loading are routine for us in London. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and our planning allows for it
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Memorial Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is it OK to put new silicone on top of the old?
The failed bead is always removed. Fresh silicone can’t key to an old bead, so sealing over it soon peels.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators.
Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?
Not for long. The mould is inside the silicone so cleaning only lightens it for a while. Replacing the bead is the lasting answer.
Is East Wickham in your area?
Yes. East Wickham is in our area and the rest of Greater London. For a quote, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
