- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.

Ibworth: questions and answers
Will the toilets in our Ibworth building be out of use?
Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. Each area is handed back once the sealant has cured enough to use.
Is Ibworth too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can you reseal washrooms in healthcare buildings?
Yes. Your infection-control rules, estates requirements and permits are followed. The work is phased around patients or residents.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos. Include photos or drawings if you have them.
When can showers be used after new sealant?
That varies with the sealant and the room temperature. You will get a reopening time for each area, and signs stay up until then.
Which silicone is right for commercial washrooms?
It depends on the joint. Most washroom joints take sanitary silicone while kitchens may need a food-safe grade.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Maintenance after handover
Once the work is signed off, these steps help:
- Keep washrooms out of use until we say the sealant has cured
- Keep extract fans working and vents clear
- Add sealant joints to planned maintenance checks
- Report split joints at trays and basins early
Where possible, have shower floors and trays squeegeed after busy periods. Joints that sit wet for hours fail sooner.
Water getting behind IPS panels and vanity units can swell the boards. After that, those parts need replacing rather than resealing.

What else we do in Ibworth
Honest limits
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
If you are not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Kitchens and tea points
- Urinals and WCs
- Vanity units and basins
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- IPS panels and cubicles
Why deal with it now?
A failed joint behind a basin or along a shower tray lets water run where it shouldn’t. In a commercial building that can mean damaged boards, stained ceilings on the floor below and odours, and fixing that takes far more work than resealing. Older rural buildings around Ibworth move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
Pricing washrooms and wet areas depends on quantities, condition and access, plus any specification you’re working to. Call for a quote.

General trades versus a specialist
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
