How we handle washroom sealing in Foscot
Closing all the facilities in a building isn’t an option. Work is phased by room or by section, so staff, guests or pupils always have somewhere to go. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them. We work on IPS panels and cubicles, kitchens and tea points and urinals and WCs, and what we are called in for most is sealant stained black around basins and showers and failed sealant behind washroom basins. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Foscot, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Halls and community buildings near places like Foscot are used by different groups through the week, and their toilets and kitchens show it. Resealing sinks, worktops and WCs with anti-mould silicone keeps them clean and watertight.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, ring 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll come back to it.

Honest limits
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
- Leaks through tanking or membranes below the finishes
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Kitchens and tea points

- Urinals and WCs
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Vanity units and basins
What we are called out for in Foscot
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.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans
- A new bead over an old one coming away
- Panel joints letting water behind
- Split or peeling sealant at shower trays
For a school such as Bledington Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant can be renewed around term dates.
Before you book anyone
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- How they handle RAMS and site documents

What else we do in Foscot
When to bring in a specialist
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Questions we are asked in Foscot
Is Foscot off your patch?
Not at all. Foscot is within our area. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Will the toilets in our Foscot building be out of use?
Typically only some of them, for a short time. We work in phases so other facilities stay open. Each area is handed back once the sealant has cured enough to use.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
How long will the new sealant last?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
What do you charge?
It depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll price it properly.
Do you need to see the site first?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, and bigger or more complex jobs typically get a visit.
Does the weather affect the work?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
How a job runs
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Smaller jobs around Foscot can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- First, the phasing is agreed so facilities stay open.
- Leaks, loose panels or damp are pointed out first.
- Failed sealant and residue are stripped out.
- We reseal with the grade suited to each area.
- We confirm reopening times for each washroom.
Before we start on site
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Flag any permit to work we will need
- Send your site hours and access windows

Quoting for work in Foscot
These are the things that shape the price:
- Distance, for remote addresses
- How much there is to seal
- Working within restricted access windows
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
What to include in your enquiry
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:
- Any specification or named product
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- When you need the work done
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
A handful of photographs and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Send them through the quote form, or speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form if you’d rather talk the job through.

Changing rooms and gyms
We phase work so not every changing area is closed at once. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Urinals and WC pans
The joint between a pan and the floor is easy to overlook. They are checked with everything else.
