Related advice
Signs you need washroom sealing in Jack's Hatch
Cubicle panels, IPS panels and vanity units flex when people lean on them or doors are slammed and trays shift slightly with each user. A bead that can’t cope with the movement splits along one edge.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift
- Urinal joints that look unhygienic
- Sealant lifting along a tray edge
- Kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean
Toilets at colleges like Harlow College, 2.3 miles to the north-east of Jack's Hatch, take heavy use from students and staff alike.

Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- The total length or number of joints
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Whether the work must be split into stages
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.
Details that help us quote
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Any specification or named product
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- The type of building and who uses it
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with what you know.
Should maintenance staff do it?
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.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
Your questions answered
Can you work on a hospital site such as Princess Alexandra Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Is Jack's Hatch off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of 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.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Each site asks for different documents, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Do you need to see the site first?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Is old silicone taken out first?
We strip every bit of the failed bead and wipe away the residue first. It’s the difference between a joint that lasts and one that peels.
Do you work in hospitals, clinics and care homes?
Yes. Your infection-control rules, estates requirements and permits are followed, and phase the work so areas keep facilities.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Different surfaces, different methods
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
Changing rooms and accessible showers often have wet floors, so their perimeter joints get close attention.
Urinals and WC pans
Pan and urinal joints face constant cleaning and splashing. Once they discolour or split, they hold odours and make the room look neglected.
When something else is needed
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
- Vanity carcasses that have swollen
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
If you’re not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- IPS panels and cubicles
