Leave it or put it right?
When a washroom looks worn, a refit isn’t the only answer. If the finishes are in good order, replacing the sealant may do much of what’s needed while bigger works are planned. Repeat call-outs disrupt occupied London buildings, so cutting the old sealant out fully and doing it right once is the better route.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Washroom sealing in Eltham, done properly
Closing all the facilities in a building isn’t an option. We phase the work one washroom, one bank of cubicles or one changing room at a time, so staff, guests or pupils always have somewhere to go. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. The enquiries we see most involve sealant stained black around basins and showers and kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean, across kitchens and tea points, showers, trays and wet room floors and IPS panels and cubicles. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Eltham 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.
Building managers in Eltham typically need some facilities open throughout. Washrooms are done core by core or floor by floor, with signage and a plan agreed beforehand.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

What else we do in Eltham
How the job changes by surface
Kitchens and tea points
Kitchen joints need to be smooth and sealed so they can be cleaned properly. Where food contact is possible, we use a hygienic, food-safe sealant.
Urinals and WC pans
Pan and urinal joints face constant cleaning and splashing. Once they discolour or split, they hold odours and make the room look neglected.
Commercial clients in Eltham
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
What sets the cost
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Which sealant the job calls for
- How much there is to seal
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Location, for remote and island sites
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
What to include in your enquiry
We can often quote from photos and a few details. It helps to include:
- Any specification or named product
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. The first step is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with what you know.
Questions we’re asked in Eltham
Do hotels near Eltham have to close for sealant work?
Rarely. Rooms or floors are done in turn, so the rest of the hotel keeps trading. Tell us your quiet periods and access windows and we will plan around them.
Can you work in a London building with booked loading and goods-lift slots?
Yes. Booked loading bays, goods lifts and permit-to-work systems are normal for London jobs. Share the building’s contractor rules and we’ll work to them.
Do you cover Eltham?
Yes. We cover Eltham and the rest of Greater London. To discuss a job, call the office on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Is old silicone taken out first?
The failed bead is always removed. Fresh silicone can’t key to an old bead, so sealing over it soon peels.
How long does a job like this take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Inspect, seal, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Most London premises stay occupied while we’re on site, so zones and timings are agreed with whoever manages the building. Phased work keeps the rest of the building in use.
- We agree which washrooms close and when.
- Leaks, loose panels or damp are pointed out first.
- Old sealant is stripped and the faces prepared.
- We reseal with the grade suited to each area.
- We confirm reopening times for each washroom.
Getting the site ready
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Arrange parking or a loading space

A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.
Advice
Sanitary sealant for Eltham buildings
There are nine care or nursing homes within about 2 miles of Eltham. Care home wet rooms and en suites are used every day and cleaned hard, which tells on the silicone. Rooms are done a few at a time at times agreed with the home. A 2-mile radius around Eltham takes in a number of hotels. Hotel en suites take daily use, and tired silicone at trays and basins is one of the first things guests notice. We work a handful of rooms at a time, so the hotel keeps letting the rest.
