How we handle washroom sealing in Headington Hill

Accessible WCs, showers and changing areas have their own pinch points: shower trays, wet-room floor edges, basins and floor-to-wall junctions. Gaps in those places let water get under the floor or behind panels, so we look at them closely. If you have stained sealant around pans and urinals and sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Searching for sealant specialists in Headington Hill? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

A place of Headington Hill’s size will typically have a few buildings with commercial washrooms: a school, a surgery, a pub or café, perhaps a care home. However small, each needs the old sealant removed completely and anti-mould sanitary silicone applied to clean, dry joints.

Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, in Headington Hill as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Leave it or put it right?

Leaving the job until a shutdown often means living with it for months. With phasing, the work can go ahead while most facilities stay open. Small buildings around Headington Hill suffer from failed joints as much as large ones. Catching it early means a reseal rather than repairs.

Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote.

That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit normally takes a few hours for one toilet block, with bigger buildings phased across a number of visits. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.

What the job involves on each surface

IPS and cubicle panels

Panels flex slightly in use, so the sealant has to take that movement. We check fixings before sealing.

Urinals and WC pans

Joints around urinals and WC pans take splashes, cleaning chemicals and knocks. Stained or split joints here trap smells and look unhygienic.

When to bring in a specialist

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. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.

General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.

Washroom sealing around Headington Hill: points for this area

Headington Hill lies roughly 52 miles out from central London. Office washrooms on business parks see heavy weekday use, which is why the work is phased. The 2 miles around Headington Hill include eight care or nursing homes. In a care setting, a mouldy or lifting joint in a wet room is a hygiene issue as much as a cosmetic one. Rooms are done a few at a time at times agreed with the home.

For an occupier at a site such as Shotover Trading Estate, 1.3 miles to the east of Headington Hill, the canteen and welfare facilities need cleanable joints as much as any office. In a centre such as Clarendon Shopping Centre, which lies west of Headington Hill, public washrooms are resealed a block of facilities at a time.

Common problems we fix in Headington Hill

Much of the failed sealant we remove was applied over old silicone or residue. New silicone won’t grip the old so it peels away quickly.

If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:

  • Stained sealant around pans and urinals
  • Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
  • Split or peeling sealant at shower trays
  • Failed sealant behind washroom basins

For a college such as Oxford Sixth Form College, 1.3 miles to the west of Headington Hill, half-term and summer give the windows for washroom work.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Proof of insurance
  • Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
  • How joint depth will be controlled
  • Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
