Where you’re responsible for a hall attached to a building such as Church of St Andrew, its kitchen and toilets need sealant that stays cleanable. On a healthcare site such as Essex County Hospital, 5.3 miles to the east of Marks Tey, washroom work starts with the infection-control team’s sign-off.

General trades versus a specialist
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Your questions answered
Is Marks Tey too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Will all the washrooms in our Marks Tey building be closed at once?
Rarely all at once: work is phased so some facilities are always available. We will tell you the curing time for the product before we start.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so we will ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
How soon can a washroom be used after resealing?
That varies with the sealant and the room temperature. Each room gets its own reopening time from us, and signs stay up until then.
What we can’t put right
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Condensation from failed extract fans
- Panel boards already damaged by water
- Leaks through tanking or membranes below the finishes
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Vanity units and basins
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Urinals and WCs
- Kitchens and tea points
From enquiry to sign-off
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 usually takes a morning or so for a small washroom, longer where showers and changing rooms are included, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Jobs in and around smaller places like Marks Tey are normally planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- 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.
- Joints are degreased and dried.
- New anti-mould sealant goes in and is tooled neat.
- Each area is handed back when ready.
Before we start on site
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Surface by surface
Showers and trays
A tray that rocks or has cracked won’t be fixed by sealant, and we will say so before resealing.
Changing rooms and gyms
Changing rooms can be phased so one stays open. Phasing follows your site hours and access windows.
Maintenance after handover
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Mention any site permits or estates rules at quote stage
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
- Report faulty extraction promptly
- Keep a record of which washrooms need attention
If a joint we sealed fails within 12 months, tell us and we’ll look at it. After that, a routine look catches failing joints early.
A split joint at a shower tray can leak for a long time before anyone sees it. At that stage, boards or ceilings may need repair, so reseal when you first spot a split.
