About our washroom sealing in Kippington
Accessible toilets, shower rooms and changing rooms have joints that work harder than most: wet-floor edges, tray perimeters, basin tops and the line where flooring meets the wall. Gaps in those places let water get under the floor or behind panels so they get particular attention. Most enquiries involve complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms and resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed, across vanity units and basins, IPS panels and cubicles and kitchens and tea points. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Kippington first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
Jobs in a smaller place such as Kippington are often one building: a school’s toilets, a café kitchen, a surgery’s washrooms. A list and photographs let us quote and plan so it’s done in one visit where possible.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Sanitary sealant for Kippington buildings
Kippington has several hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Hotel en suites take daily use, and tired silicone at trays and basins is one of the first things guests notice. Rooms are done in turn so most stay available. At about 20 miles from central London, Kippington 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, which is why the work is phased.
Office washrooms on sites such as Salters Heath Business Centre, 0.8 miles to the west of Kippington, are in use all working day, so resealing is phased to keep some open. Where you are responsible for a hall attached to a building such as Church of St Mary, its kitchen and toilets need sealant that stays cleanable. For a school such as St Thomas' Catholic Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant can be renewed around term dates.
Kippington is about 1 mile south of Sevenoaks, in Kent. Kippington sits inside our coverage, and jobs here get the same fixed quote and 12-month guarantee as anywhere else. Kippington is one of 931 places in Kent on our list. There’s a separate page for London, roughly 20 miles from Kippington.

Why deal with it now?
Water gets behind panels and under floors through a failed joint. That can lead to swollen boards, marked ceilings below and lingering smells which costs more to fix than a reseal. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Renewing it in good time keeps the building weathertight.
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked with your site contact. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. For a job in Kippington, the main thing is a clear picture of the work, so send photos of each area. You’ll then get a fixed price for the work.
- We inspect each washroom and record the joints to be resealed.
- You get a fixed quote with the phasing plan.
- Old sealant is removed completely and the faces cleaned.
- Each joint is cleaned and left dry.
- New anti-mould sealant goes in and is tooled neat.
- Rooms reopen after the cure time.
Before we start on site

Aftercare for building managers
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Keep washrooms out of use until we say the sealant has cured
- Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently
- Mention any site permits or estates rules at quote stage
- Squeegee showers and trays after busy periods
Each room goes back into use only when the sealant has cured enough. We will tell you when the wet areas can be used, and it helps if signs stay up until then.
A split joint at a shower tray can leak for a long time before anyone sees it. By then, other trades may be needed as well so failed joints are worth acting on quickly.
When it isn’t the sealant
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We will tell you if the real problem is one of these:
- Leaks through tanking or membranes below the finishes
- A room that stays damp because ventilation isn’t working
- Swollen or delaminated boards behind panels or vanity tops
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Vanity units and basins
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Urinals and WCs
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Kitchens and tea points
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
Should maintenance staff do it?
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Common questions from Kippington clients
Will our hotel in Kippington need to close for the work?
Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. Tell us your quiet periods and access windows and we will plan around them.
Is Kippington off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, with one point of contact across South East England, Greater London and Scotland.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, tell us and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
Often, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
What do you charge?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. Send photographs or drawings and we will price it at a fixed figure.
What affects the price in Kippington
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- How accessible the joints are
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Removal of failed or old sealant
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.
Before you send an enquiry
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- Any dates the work must fit around
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
