About our washroom sealing in Holborough
In a busy washroom, the sealant usually gives up long before the tiles or fittings. Basin tops, urinal backs, panel joints and shower trays put it under water, chemicals and daily cleaning, and once mould grows into it, it can’t be scrubbed out. We strip it out and lay new anti-mould sanitary silicone. We work on IPS panels and cubicles, showers, trays and wet room floors and vanity units and basins, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are urinal joints that look unhygienic and sealant stained black around basins and showers. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Holborough is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
A place of Holborough’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.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Toilets, showers and kitchens around Holborough
At about 26 miles from central London, Holborough is within reach of the capital, within the office belt around the capital. Office toilets in the commuter belt are in use from first arrivals to last departures, so we phase work to keep some facilities open.
Clinical washrooms at sites like St. Catherine's Hospital (4.2 miles north-east of Holborough) are scheduled with the ward so the room is out of use for as little time as possible. Office toilets at parks like New Hythe Business Park (to the south of Holborough) take steady weekday use, and mouldy silicone soon shows.
Holborough is about 4 miles west of Chatham, in Kent. Holborough sits inside our coverage and the rest of Kent, and jobs here get the same fixed quote and 12-month guarantee as anywhere else. 931 places across Kent fall within our area, including Holborough.

What the job involves on each surface
Showers and trays
A tray that rocks or has cracked won’t be fixed by sealant, and we’ll say so before resealing.
Changing rooms and gyms
We phase work so not every changing area is closed at once. Phasing follows your site hours and access windows.
Your questions answered
Could you schedule work at a campus like University for the Creative Arts - Rochester for the vacation?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Is Holborough too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Holborough is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
It depends on the product. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so we will confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Internal work is rarely affected.
Will cleaning remove black mould from sealant?
Cleaning may lighten it, but the mould returns. We replace the sealant with an anti-mould sanitary grade and check the ventilation isn’t the cause.
Is old silicone taken out first?
The whole of the old bead is removed and the surfaces cleaned first. That’s what makes the new joint last.
Can you reseal washrooms in healthcare buildings?
Yes, healthcare and care settings are part of our work. Tell us what records you need and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Doing it in-house
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
For managing agents and facilities managers
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we’re straightforward to vet for your supplier list. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.
Signs you need washroom sealing in Holborough
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 discolour and fail early.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Split or peeling sealant at shower trays
- Open joints along basins and vanity units
- Sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling
- Black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift
Toilets at places like Horsted Retail Park, 2.9 miles to the east of Holborough, are cleaned constantly, so silicone needs to be sound and smooth.
What your quote should include
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
What sealant work can’t fix
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- A dripping waste or valve behind a panel
- Loose panels, vanity units or tiles, which need fixing first
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will say what we think.
What we seal
- Vanity units and basins

Diagnose, treat, sign off
When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, and the work usually takes a few hours for one toilet block, with bigger buildings phased across a number of visits. For a job in Holborough, the main thing is a clear picture of the work, so send photos of each area. A fixed quote follows.
- We start by inspecting the fittings and joints and flagging problems sealant can’t solve.
- A phasing plan keeps part of the building’s facilities in use at all times.
- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- New sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives goes in and is tooled neat.
- Rooms reopen after the product’s cure time, and we move to the next.
Before we start on site
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
