What sealant work can’t fix
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be any of the following:
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Washroom sealing in Foxendown
In a commercial washroom, sealant is normally the first thing to wear out. 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. We strip it out and lay new anti-mould sanitary silicone. Most enquiries involve users noticing mouldy joints and stained sealant around pans and urinals, on accessible toilets and changing rooms, IPS panels and cubicles and kitchens and tea points. For commercial sealant work in Foxendown, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
In and around smaller places like Foxendown, washroom work is often in halls, pubs, primary schools, care homes and holiday accommodation. Mould gets into sealant in any washroom that doesn’t dry out, and once it’s in, the sealant is replaced.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and the quote explains what it covers.

Signs you need washroom sealing in Foxendown
Panels and vanity units move slightly in use and trays shift slightly with each user. A bead that can’t cope with the movement splits along one edge.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Split or peeling sealant at shower trays
- Urinal joints that look unhygienic
- Sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling
- Stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops
Pupil toilets at schools like Meopham Community Academy take heavy daily use, and the holidays give the window to reseal.
Questions to ask before you book
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
Keeping the joints sound
After handover, a little attention goes a long way:
- Photograph and log failed joints across the estate
- Report faulty extraction promptly
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
- Share your site rules when you send details
We hand each area back once the silicone has had the cure time the product needs. We’ll tell you when the wet areas can be used, and it helps if signs stay up until then.
A split joint at a shower tray can leak for a long time before anyone sees it. At that stage, boards or ceilings may need repair, so reseal when you first spot a split.
Questions about Foxendown
Is a smaller place like Foxendown outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you work on a hospital site such as Gravesham Community Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Will you quote for a small job?
Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Is there a guarantee on the work?
Our workmanship has a 12-month guarantee backed by public liability insurance.
Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?
Usually not. Mould grows into the sealant itself, so it comes back however often it’s cleaned. Replacement is the lasting fix.
How soon can a washroom be used after resealing?
Cure times vary by product and temperature. Each room gets its own reopening time from us before we leave it.
Do you phase washroom resealing?
We phase it so there are always facilities open. We work through the building a room or section at a time around your site hours and access windows.
How a job runs
At the end of each section, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked with your site contact. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. Rural sites near Foxendown may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.
- We start by inspecting the fittings and joints and flagging problems sealant can’t solve.
- We agree which rooms close and when, so users always have somewhere to go.
- We strip out the old bead and clean off the residue left behind.
- Joints are cleaned, degreased and dried before sealing.
- New sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives goes in and is tooled neat.
- You get a reopening time for every room, with signage left up until then.
What we need from you
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Let us know about inductions and permits

Advice
How the job changes by surface
Healthcare and care settings
In healthcare, sealed joints are part of infection control. We work to your estates and infection-control requirements and any permits the site uses.
IPS and cubicle panels
A panel that has already swollen won’t be fixed by sealant, and any we come across will be pointed out.
What affects the price in Foxendown
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- The total length or number of joints
- Travel to remote or island sites
- How accessible the joints are
- Whether the work must be split into stages
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.
Sending details for a quote
A few photos plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:
- Access details, including height
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- The site address and postcode
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.
