About our washroom sealing in Horsted Keynes
In healthcare and care settings, sealing is part of keeping surfaces cleanable. We work to your organisation’s estates and infection-control requirements and any site permits. Any records you need are confirmed with the quote. We work on showers, trays and wet room floors, kitchens and tea points and urinals and WCs, and the failures we are asked to look at most are black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift and failed sealant behind washroom basins. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Horsted Keynes first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
In and around smaller places like Horsted Keynes, washroom work is often in halls, pubs, primary schools, care homes and holiday accommodation. Sealant that has gone black with mould normally can’t be cleaned, so it is cut out and replaced.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we are clear about what is covered before work starts.

Why act early in Horsted Keynes
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. For buildings around smaller places like Horsted Keynes, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

Doing it in-house
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Common problems we fix in Horsted Keynes
Mop buckets, trolleys and knocks from users damage joints near the floor, especially at floor edges and around urinals and WC pans.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
- Users noticing mouldy joints
- Split or peeling sealant at shower trays
- Resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed
For a hotel such as Ravenswood Hotel, which lies north of Horsted Keynes, resealing en suites a few rooms at a time keeps the rest available.
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually carry out the work
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?

Your questions answered
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Princess Royal Hospital, something you do?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Is Horsted Keynes off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
How many days will you need on site?
It depends on the scope, but the work typically takes half a day to a day per washroom, depending on the number of fittings. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
Does the weather affect the work?
Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.
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.
Quoting for work in Horsted Keynes
To price the job, we consider:
- How much existing material needs removing
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Phasing around occupants
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
Details that help us quote
Good information means a firmer quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Specification clauses that apply
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- When you need the work done
- The postcode of the building
A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
On site: what to expect
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod.
