If you manage an office at a site such as North Downs Business Park, 1.5 miles to the east of Knockholt Pound, the washrooms and tea points can be done a floor at a time.

About our washroom sealing in Knockholt Pound

In a busy washroom, the sealant usually gives up long before the tiles or fittings. Basin tops, urinal backs, panel joints and shower trays put it under water, chemicals and daily cleaning and mould that roots into it can’t be cleaned away. We strip it out and lay new anti-mould sanitary silicone. The enquiries we see most involve mould spotting along silicone joints and split or peeling sealant at shower trays, on kitchens and tea points, showers, trays and wet room floors and accessible toilets and changing rooms. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Knockholt Pound tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.

In and around smaller places like Knockholt Pound, washroom work is often in halls, pubs, primary schools, care homes and holiday accommodation. Sealant that has gone black with mould typically can’t be cleaned, so it is cut out and replaced.

Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, in Knockholt Pound as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Our process

Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work typically takes a morning or so for a small washroom, longer where showers and changing rooms are included, and we clear our waste as we work. If others near Knockholt Pound need work, visits can be combined. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.

  1. Every washroom is checked joint by joint, with loose panels, leaks or damp noted for the right trade.
  2. A phasing plan keeps part of the building’s facilities in use at all times.
  3. Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
  4. Joints are cleaned, degreased and dried before sealing.
  5. A bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone goes in and is tooled to a smooth, cleanable profile.
  6. Rooms reopen after the product’s cure time, and we move to the next.

Getting the site ready

  • Make sure the joints can be reached
  • For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
  • Share your working hours and any access restrictions

Different surfaces, different methods

Kitchens and tea points

Changing rooms and gyms

Showers, floor edges and vanity units in changing rooms all need sound sealant and we look at them as one job.

FAQs: Knockholt Pound

Is Knockholt Pound too small for you to travel to?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Do we have to close all our washrooms in Knockholt Pound for resealing?

Normally only some of them, for a short time. We work in phases so other facilities stay open. Each area is handed back once the sealant has cured enough to use.

How long will the new sealant last?

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.

How do I request a quote?

The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call the office on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.

Do you have public liability insurance?

Yes. We are fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.

Can you handle several sites?

Yes. A group of buildings can go on one quote, and you deal with one contact throughout across South East England, Greater London and Scotland.

When to call us in Knockholt Pound

Warmth, moisture and soap residue are exactly what mould needs, and sealant joints trap all three. Anti-mould additives help, but in a poorly ventilated room mould can still take hold eventually.

Most enquiries start with something like this:

  • Discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans
  • Open joints along basins and vanity units
  • Complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms
  • Shower tray joints that have opened up

Healthcare washrooms on sites such as Chelsfield Park Hospital (to the north of Knockholt Pound) are resealed area by area, under the site’s own infection-control rules.

Our contractor checklist

Honest limits

Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:

  • Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
  • Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
  • Panel boards already damaged by water

Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will tell you honestly.

What we seal

  • Kitchens and tea points
  • Accessible toilets and changing rooms
  • IPS panels and cubicles
  • Vanity units and basins
  • Showers, trays and wet room floors
  • Urinals and WCs

Looking after the joints

Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:

  • Include joints in routine washroom inspections
  • Leave signs up until the cure time is over
  • Note failing joints building by building
  • Share your site rules when you send details

Ask your cleaning team to use gentle products and soft cloths on sealant. Strong acids, solvents and scourers wear the surface over time.

Boards behind panels and vanity tops can swell when water gets past a failed joint. After that, those parts need replacing rather than resealing.

What sets the cost

Before we quote, we look at:

  • Location, for remote and island sites
  • The total length or number of joints
  • Phasing around occupants
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants

Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.

Details that help us quote

The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:

  • The asbestos register, for older buildings
  • The site address and postcode
  • Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
  • When you need the work done
