When it isn’t the sealant
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We’ll tell you if the real problem is any of the following:
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
- Swollen or delaminated boards behind panels or vanity tops
If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer.

Washroom sealing in Flacks Green, done properly
In healthcare and care settings, sealing is part of keeping surfaces cleanable. Your estates and infection-control requirements, and any permits the site uses, shape how we work. Any records you need are confirmed with the quote. The enquiries we see most involve shower tray joints that have opened up and gaps where vanity tops meet the wall, on vanity units and basins, IPS panels and cubicles and kitchens and tea points. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Flacks Green, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
In and around smaller places like Flacks Green, washroom work is often in halls, pubs, primary schools, care homes and holiday accommodation. Sealant that has gone black with mould typically can’t be cleaned, so it is cut out and replaced.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

When to bring in a specialist
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Questions we’re asked in Flacks Green
Is Flacks Green too far out for you?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Must every washroom in our Flacks Green building shut while you work?
Rarely all at once: work is phased so some facilities are always available. Sanitary silicone needs time to cure before the area is used, and we will tell you how long for the product used.
What do you charge?
That depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a quote and we’ll price it properly.
Do you need to see the site first?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photographs and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?
Typically not. The mould is inside the silicone so cleaning only lightens it for a while. Replacing the bead is the lasting answer.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured, including public liability cover.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Commercial washrooms in Flacks Green

Clinical washrooms at sites like Broomfield Hospital (to the south-west of Flacks Green) are scheduled with the ward so the room is out of use for as little time as possible.

Do you need washroom sealing in Flacks Green?
Cubicle panels, IPS panels and vanity units flex when people lean on them or doors are slammed, and shower trays shift under foot. A bead that can’t cope with the movement splits along one edge.
Things that usually lead to an enquiry:
- Mould spotting along silicone joints
- Sealant lifting along a tray edge
- Open joints along basins and vanity units
- Stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops
At a school such as Terling Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School, changing rooms and kitchens need cleanable joints as much as the toilets.
What to look for in a quote
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
Keeping the joints sound
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:
- Keep washrooms out of use until we say the sealant has cured
- Squeegee showers and trays after busy periods
- Mention any site permits or estates rules at quote stage
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
If a joint we sealed fails within 12 months, tell us and we’ll look at it. Beyond that, regular checks keep small problems small.
Water getting behind IPS panels and vanity units can swell the boards. After that, those parts need replacing rather than resealing.
