Washroom sealing in Freefolk
When mould has spotted a silicone joint, more cleaning won’t remove it. The mould has rooted into the silicone itself so it returns whatever the cleaning regime. Replacing the bead is the lasting treatment. Most enquiries involve resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed and discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans, across kitchens and tea points, IPS panels and cubicles and showers, trays and wet room floors. Whoever orders the work in Freefolk, the brief is typically the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.

What happens if it’s left?
A tired-looking washroom doesn’t always need a refurbishment. If the finishes are in good order, replacing the sealant may do much of what’s needed for now. Older rural buildings around Freefolk move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote and we will explain how it’s made up.

Should maintenance staff do it?
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
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. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Different surfaces, different methods
IPS and cubicle panels
IPS panels and cubicle systems have joints at the wall, the floor and the worktop. They stop water reaching the panel boards.
Urinals and WC pans
Floor joints around WC pans are often forgotten. We include them in the survey.
Common problems we fix in Freefolk
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 stain, crack or wash out.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Split or peeling sealant at shower trays
- Discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans
- A new bead over an old one coming away
- Panel joints letting water behind
Schools such as Testbourne Community School have toilets, changing rooms and kitchens that are best resealed in the holidays.

Common questions from Freefolk clients
Must every washroom in our Freefolk building shut while you work?
Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. Sanitary silicone needs time to cure before the area is used, and we’ll tell you how long for the product used.
What paperwork can you provide for a job in Freefolk?
We’ll confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details, with the quote. We hold £5m public liability insurance, are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and our applicators are CSCS-carded.
Do you work in hospitals, clinics and care homes?
We do. Your infection-control rules, estates requirements and permits are followed. The work is phased around patients or residents.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
Will cleaning remove black mould from sealant?
Typically not. Mould grows into the sealant itself, so it comes back however often it’s cleaned. Replacing the bead is the lasting answer.
When can showers be used after new sealant?
That varies with the sealant and the room temperature. Each room gets its own reopening time from us before we leave it.
