When to bring in a specialist
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
About our washroom sealing in High Cross
Washroom joints need the right sealant, not whatever is to hand. 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. We work on IPS panels and cubicles, urinals and WCs and kitchens and tea points, and what we’re called in for most is open joints along basins and vanity units and discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans. Most enquiries from High Cross start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Halls and community buildings near places like High Cross are used by different groups through the week, and their toilets and kitchens show it. Resealing sinks, worktops and WCs with anti-mould silicone keeps them clean and watertight.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

What sealant work can’t fix
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
- A dripping waste or valve behind a panel
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Kitchens and tea points
- Vanity units and basins
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Urinals and WCs
Questions we’re asked in High Cross
Would you work within a site like The Dene Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Will all the washrooms in our High Cross building be closed at once?
Rarely all at once: work is phased so some facilities are always available. We’ll tell you the curing time for the product before we start.
Is it possible to just clean mouldy silicone?
Not for long. The mould is inside the silicone so cleaning only lightens it for a while. Replacing the bead is the lasting answer.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Which silicone is right for commercial washrooms?
Sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives in the majority of cases. Neutral-cure grades are used where acetoxy types could mark metals, stone or mirror backings.
How long do sealant joints last?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, but the work usually takes half a day to a day per washroom, depending on the number of fittings. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
After the work
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Keep washrooms out of use until we say the sealant has cured
- Add sealant joints to planned maintenance checks
- Make sure washroom ventilation is running
- Report split joints at trays and basins early
Ventilation is half the battle. A room that stays damp will grow mould on almost anything so report fans that aren’t working to your building services team.
Leaks through tray and wet-floor joints can go unseen until a ceiling marks below. By then, other trades may be needed as well, so reseal when you first spot a split.
Surface by surface
Urinals and WC pans
Floor joints around WC pans are often forgotten. We include them in the survey.
Kitchens and tea points
Kitchen work can be phased around service. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Our process
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work typically takes a few hours for one toilet block, with bigger buildings phased across a number of visits, and we clear our waste as we work. If others near High Cross need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- We inspect each washroom and record the joints to be resealed.
- You get a fixed quote with the phasing plan.
- The whole of the old bead is removed.
- Each joint is cleaned and left dry.
- A sanitary silicone bead is laid and given a smooth tooled finish.
- Rooms reopen after the cure time.
What we need from you
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
Getting a fixed quote
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.
