Surface by surface
Urinals and WC pans
Joints around urinals and WC pans take splashes, cleaning chemicals and knocks. Stained or split joints here trap smells and look unhygienic.
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
Wet floors are common in accessible showers and changing rooms so the edges are checked carefully.
Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Kingsgate
Facilities managers, contractors and building owners have used us for washroom sealing for over 20 years. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with CSCS-carded applicators. We are fully insured. Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. Site teams most often ask us about a new bead over an old one coming away and open joints at the base of cubicle panels, across kitchens and tea points, vanity units and basins and showers, trays and wet room floors. For commercial sealant work in Kingsgate, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.
Smaller places such as Kingsgate still have commercial washrooms and kitchens: in halls, pubs, schools, care homes and farm-based businesses. Mould gets into sealant in any washroom that doesn’t dry out, and once it’s in, the sealant is replaced.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

When it isn’t the sealant
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It isn’t the answer for:
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
- A room that stays damp because ventilation isn’t working
- A dripping waste or valve behind a panel
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think before you book.

From enquiry to sign-off
Site rules come first: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. Once we are cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. If others near Kingsgate need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- Every washroom is checked joint by joint, with loose panels, leaks or damp noted for the right trade.
- The phasing is agreed so there are always facilities open.
- The failed silicone is stripped and every face scraped clean of residue.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- A bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone goes in and is tooled to a smooth, cleanable profile.
- Each room is handed back once the sealant has had its cure time.
Preparing the site
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Make sure the joints can be reached

Related advice
Washroom sealing around Kingsgate: what changes locally
Kingsgate lies within about 1 mile of the sea, and coastal places often have hotels, guest houses and holiday accommodation with busy seasons. Heavy seasonal use is hard on shower and basin sealant, and the quieter months are the natural time to reseal. The area within 2 miles of Kingsgate holds a good number of hotels. Hotel en suites take daily use, and tired silicone at trays and basins is one of the first things guests notice.
For a hotel such as Botany Bay Hotel (under half a mile north-west of Kingsgate), resealing en suites a few rooms at a time keeps the rest available. Toilets at colleges like EKC Broadstairs College, 2 miles south of Kingsgate, take heavy use from students and staff alike.

FAQs: Kingsgate
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Do hotels near Kingsgate have to close for sealant work?
In the majority of cases no closure is needed: we work room by room or floor by floor. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.
How do we ask for a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email. Include photographs or drawings if you have them.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
In many cases, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
What sealant do you use in 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.
Do you cover Kingsgate?
Yes. We take on work across Kingsgate, and the same phone number covers every area.
Signs you need washroom sealing in Kingsgate
Panels and vanity units move slightly in use and trays shift slightly with each user. If the joint wasn’t laid to take that movement, it tears or peels away.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen
- Resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed
- Users noticing mouldy joints
- Panel joints letting water behind
Units at estates like Northdown Industrial Estate, 1.3 miles to the south-west of Kingsgate, have welfare blocks whose showers and toilets see shift after shift.
What your quote should include
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
General trades versus a specialist
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. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
