About our washroom sealing in Finmere
Not every silicone belongs in a washroom. Sanitary grades carry anti-mould additives, and neutral-cure versions avoid the damage acetoxy types can do to some metals, stone and mirror backings. In food areas, hygienic or food-safe sealants are used where food contact is possible. If you have discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans and kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean, we can put it right, whatever the surface. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Finmere first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Smaller places such as Finmere 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, call 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will come back to it.

Owners, agents and contractors
If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Finmere can sit alongside others in a wider programme.
Why it’s worth doing now in Finmere
Running fresh silicone along a failed bead hides the problem briefly. It doesn’t bond, so it peels and traps dirt behind it. Full removal and proper cleaning is what makes the new joint last. Converted and older buildings near places like Finmere tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.

Common problems we fix in Finmere
Low-level joints get hit by mop buckets, cleaning trolleys and feet at skirting lines, urinal bases and around pans.
Most enquiries start with something like this:
- Failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen
- Sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling
- Sealant lifting along a tray edge
- Washrooms that look worn because of the sealant
Pupil toilets at schools like Finmere Church of England Primary School take heavy daily use, and the holidays give the window to reseal.

Honest limits
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
- Panel boards already damaged by water
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Common questions from Finmere clients
Would you work within a site like Buckingham Community Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Can work at a site such as University of Buckingham fit around teaching?
Yes. Education sites usually want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Will all the toilets be closed at once?
We phase it so there are always facilities open. We work through the building a room or section at a time. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
Do you use special sealant for toilets and showers?
Sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives for most washroom joints. We use neutral-cure versions on stone, some metals and near mirrors.
How do you choose the sealant?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Can you send site paperwork?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Can weather delay the job?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.

General trades versus a specialist
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.

We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area.
