Honest limits
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Condensation from failed extract fans
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Vanity units and basins
- Kitchens and tea points
- Urinals and WCs
- IPS panels and cubicles
Washroom sealing in Lambeth, done properly
When mould has spotted a silicone joint, more cleaning won’t remove it. The growth is inside the sealant so it returns whatever the cleaning regime. Only replacement gets rid of it for good. The enquiries we see most involve a new bead over an old one coming away and failed sealant behind washroom basins, across showers, trays and wet room floors, IPS panels and cubicles and vanity units and basins. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Lambeth from the first photographs to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
In a London area such as Lambeth, commercial washrooms in offices, hotels and leisure buildings see constant use. Mouldy or split sealant at vanity tops, IPS panels and urinals is replaced with anti-mould sanitary silicone, in phases so some facilities stay open.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

Common problems we fix in Lambeth
Occasionally a joint keeps failing because of a problem behind it: a loose panel, a leaking waste or water coming through the wall. We check for that first and tell you if another trade is needed.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Users noticing mouldy joints
- Shower tray joints that have opened up
- Failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen
- Discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans
At a university such as London South Bank University, 0.9 miles north-east of Lambeth, summer is the usual window for resealing residence bathrooms.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- Who will actually carry out the work
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
Our process
Inspect, seal, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, and parking near a job is rarely simple. Let us know about any on-site parking or loading arrangements when you send the job details.
- Every room is surveyed and the failed joints listed.
- You get a fixed quote with the phasing plan.
- Old sealant is removed completely and the faces cleaned.
- Joints are degreased and dried.
- New anti-mould sealant goes in and is tooled neat.
- Each area is handed back when ready.
What we need from you
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Confirm the product named in the specification

Common questions from Lambeth clients
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as London South Bank University?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Can you work in a London building with booked loading and goods-lift slots?
Yes. Inductions, permits and timed loading are routine for us in London. Say when the building is occupied and when it’s quiet, and we’ll plan accordingly.
Do you need to remove the old sealant?
We strip every bit of the failed bead and wipe away the residue before resealing. That’s what makes the new joint last.
How long does a typical visit take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Can you quote from photographs?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas
Before we quote, we look at:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Access and working height
- The size and state of each joint
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Let us know:
- What the building is and how it’s used
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- Any dates the work must fit around
A good quote starts with a clear picture: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
Keeping Lambeth washrooms open while we work
There are plenty of hotels within about 2 miles of Lambeth. Behind every hotel door there’s a bathroom whose sealant will need renewing sooner or later. We work a handful of rooms at a time, so the hotel keeps letting the rest. There are two care or nursing homes within about 2 miles of Lambeth. Care home wet rooms and en suites are used every day and cleaned hard, which tells on the silicone. Work is agreed with the manager, around residents’ routines.
If you manage an office at a site such as Handel Business Centre, 0.5 miles south-west of Lambeth, the washrooms and tea points can be done a floor at a time. Toilets at colleges like Chelsea College of Art & Design (less than half a mile west of Lambeth) take heavy use from students and staff alike.
Lambeth is about 1 mile south-west of London, in Greater London. Our applicators travel to Lambeth for work on washrooms and wet areas, handled exactly as we handle every other area. Lambeth is one of 764 places we cover in Greater London for washrooms and wet areas.
We cover the SE11, SW1P and SW8 postcode districts for washrooms and wet areas. Among the streets we cover are Gibson Road, Langley Lane and Randall Road. Lambeth sits on or close to the A3203 and A3204, useful when we plan access and materials. Sites close to Lambeth are covered too, including Vauxhall (1 mile north), Kennington (1 mile south), Oval (1 mile south), Newington Butts (1 mile east) and St George's Fields (1 mile north-east). A short drive away, we cover Kensington (4 miles west), Shoreditch (3 miles north-east), Walthamstow (8 miles north-east), Hoxton (3 miles north-east), Whitechapel (3 miles north-east) and Hampstead (5 miles north-west).
Local landmarks in Lambeth
Recent enquiries here include premises near The Jolly Gardeners pub, Old Paradise Gardens and Lambeth Palace Library and the streets around them. Also close by are Lambeth School of Art (under half a mile south) and Lilian Baylis Technology School (under half a mile south). There’s a railway station in Lambeth itself: Vauxhall station. Nearby you’ll also find Newport Street Gallery (under half a mile north-east) and Evelina London Children's Hospital (0.5 miles north). The countryside around Lambeth includes Bellenden Road Nature Garden and Ludgate Hill.
Should maintenance staff do it?
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Commercial clients in Lambeth
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Lambeth can form part of a wider programme.
