Should maintenance staff do it?
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
About our washroom sealing in Harmer Green
Not every silicone belongs in a washroom. Sanitary grades carry anti-mould additives, and neutral-cure versions avoid the damage acetoxy types can do to some metals, stone and mirror backings. Where food contact is possible, we use a hygienic, food-safe grade. Site teams most often ask us about failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen and sealant lifting along a tray edge, across accessible toilets and changing rooms, urinals and WCs and vanity units and basins. Searching for sealant specialists in Harmer Green? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005.
Farm shops, cafés and venues in converted rural buildings around places like Harmer Green have busy toilets and kitchens. We plan the work around bookings and opening times.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, in Harmer Green as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. If others near Harmer Green need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- We start by inspecting the fittings and joints and flagging problems sealant can’t solve.
- The phasing is agreed so there are always facilities open.
- The failed silicone is stripped and every face scraped clean of residue.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- A bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone goes in and is tooled to a smooth, cleanable profile.
- Each room is handed back once the sealant has had its cure time.

Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:
- The size and state of each joint
- Location, for remote and island sites
- The product specified
- The site’s rules and procedures
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.
Sending details for a quote
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- The site address and postcode
- Any specification or named product
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
Why it’s worth doing now in Harmer Green
Cleaning mouldy sealant only masks it but the growth is inside the bead and returns. A full reseal deals with it and your cleaning team stops chasing it. Converted and older buildings near places like Harmer Green tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
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.
What you get with us
- Fixed quotes based on photographs, drawings or a visit
- Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available
- 12-month guarantee on workmanship
- Failed material removed, not covered up

Common questions from Harmer Green clients
Must a hotel around Harmer Green close while you work?
Rarely. Rooms or floors are done in turn, so the rest of the hotel keeps trading. Tell us your quiet periods and access windows and we will plan around them.
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University of Hertfordshire?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?
Usually not. Mould grows into the sealant itself so cleaning only lightens it for a while. Replacement is the lasting fix.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and any queries are raised before we start.
How do you choose the sealant?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
How do I request a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
How the job changes by surface
Showers and trays
If a tray moves too much or is cracked, it needs attention first, and we’ll say so before resealing.
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
Wet-room floors and the joints where flooring turns up the wall need to stay sound. Floor perimeters and sealant joints near drains are resealed.
