Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- The product specified
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Details that help us quote
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- Any specification or named product
- The type of building and who uses it
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with what you know.
Washroom sealing in Granborough, done properly
You can’t shut every toilet in an office, school or hotel at once. Work is phased by room or by section, so there are always facilities in use. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them. We work on vanity units and basins, accessible toilets and changing rooms and urinals and WCs, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans and split or peeling sealant at shower trays. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Granborough, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
In and around smaller places like Granborough, 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.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

After the work
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
- Report split joints at trays and basins early
- Respect the cure time before reopening each room
- Share your site rules when you send details
Each room goes back into use only when the sealant has cured enough. You will be told when showers and basins can be used again, and it helps if signs stay up until then.
Mouldy sealant only gets harder to ignore, and complaints follow. Replacing it early keeps the job to a reseal.
When something else is needed
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- A dripping waste or valve behind a panel
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
- Swollen or delaminated boards behind panels or vanity tops
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will say what we think before you book.

Your questions answered
What documents will you need to give us for a job in Granborough?
RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we’ll confirm it with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
Is Granborough off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Is it possible to just clean mouldy silicone?
Usually not. Mould grows into the sealant itself, so it comes back however often it’s cleaned. Replacement is the lasting fix.
Is it OK to put new silicone on top of the old?
We strip every bit of the failed bead and wipe away the residue before resealing. That’s what makes the new joint last.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, let us know and we will send them with the quote.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Washroom sealing in Granborough: the local picture
Granborough lies roughly 45 miles out from central London, within the office belt around the capital. Office washrooms on business parks see heavy weekday use, so we work a block of facilities at a time.
At a school such as Sir Thomas Fremantle School, changing rooms and kitchens need cleanable joints as much as the toilets. Hotels such as The Bell Hotel, 1.5 miles to the north of Granborough, have en suite bathrooms where tired silicone at the bath, tray and basin is replaced room by room. On an industrial estate such as Station Road Industrial Estate, which lies north of Granborough, staff toilets, showers and canteens are where sanitary sealant takes the most wear.

General trades versus a specialist
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.
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, 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.
