Washroom sealing near Farncombe
Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
About our washroom sealing in Farncombe
In a busy washroom, the sealant usually gives up long before the tiles or fittings. Basin tops, urinal backs, panel joints and shower trays put it under water, chemicals and daily cleaning, and once mould grows into it, it can’t be scrubbed out. The fix is to remove it completely and reseal with sanitary silicone containing anti-mould additives. We work on IPS panels and cubicles, urinals and WCs and kitchens and tea points, and the failures we are asked to look at most are a new bead over an old one coming away and open joints at the base of cubicle panels. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Farncombe 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.
A place of Farncombe’s size will typically have a few buildings with commercial washrooms: a school, a surgery, a pub or café, perhaps a care home. They don’t need a big crew, but they do need old sealant fully cut out before anti-mould silicone goes on.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we look at:
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Which sealant the job calls for
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
Sending details for a quote
A few photos plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:
- When you need the work done
- The site address and postcode
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- What the building is and how it’s used
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and a fixed quote will follow. To get it moving, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
On site: what to expect
Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. What matters most for a job in Farncombe is a clear list of what needs doing, so send photographs of each area. A fixed quote follows.
- Every washroom is checked joint by joint, with loose panels, leaks or damp noted for the right trade.
- A phasing plan keeps part of the building’s facilities in use at all times.
- We strip out the old bead and clean off the residue left behind.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- A bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone goes in and is tooled to a smooth, cleanable profile.
- You get a reopening time for every room, with signage left up until then.
Preparing the site
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Send your site hours and access windows

Washroom sealing in Farncombe: the local picture
There are two care or nursing homes within about 2 miles of Farncombe. In a care setting, a mouldy or lifting joint in a wet room is a hygiene issue as much as a cosmetic one. We plan the work with the manager so residents are disturbed as little as possible. Farncombe lies roughly 30 miles out from central London. Washrooms in commuter-belt offices take constant weekday traffic, so we phase work to keep some facilities open.
For a campus such as University of Surrey - Manor Park Campus, 2.7 miles north of Farncombe, showers in residences and washrooms in teaching blocks can be programmed around term dates. For a site such as Milford Hospital, 2.2 miles to the south of Farncombe, sanitary joints in clinical areas need sound, cleanable sealant and a careful method.
Farncombe is about 4 miles south-west of Guildford, in Surrey. Any commercial site in Farncombe is covered. Our Surrey coverage takes in 379 places. Reading is covered too, some 24 miles away.

Around Farncombe

A little further out are Charterhouse School Museum (0.6 miles west) and Guildford Castle (2.9 miles north-east). Green spaces nearby include Frith Hill and Farncombe Wood.
When it isn’t the sealant
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It won’t put right:
- Panel boards already damaged by water
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surface by surface
Showers and trays
If a tray moves too much or is cracked, it needs attention first and we flag that beforehand.
Urinals and WC pans
Pan and urinal joints face constant cleaning and splashing. Once they discolour or split, they hold odours and look unhygienic.
When to call us in Farncombe
Low-level joints get hit by mop buckets, cleaning trolleys and feet at skirting lines, urinal bases and around pans.
Clients usually get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen
- Sealant lifting along a tray edge
- Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
- Users noticing mouldy joints
Toilets at colleges like Godalming College, 1.5 miles south of Farncombe, take heavy use from students and staff alike.

Questions about Farncombe
Could you schedule work at a campus like University of Surrey - Manor Park Campus for the vacation?
Yes. Education sites normally want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Is Farncombe off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Is it OK to put new silicone on top of the old?
We strip every bit of the failed bead and wipe away the residue first. It’s the difference between a joint that lasts and one that peels.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
What do you charge?
There isn’t a price list, as every site differs. With photographs or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, including public liability cover.
Can weather delay the job?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
