Washroom sealing for Merle Common sites
Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, 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.
About our washroom sealing in Merle Common
Closing all the facilities in a building isn’t an option. We phase the work one washroom, one bank of cubicles or one changing room at a time, so staff, guests or pupils always have somewhere to go. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. We work on kitchens and tea points, urinals and WCs and accessible toilets and changing rooms, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are a new bead over an old one coming away and failed sealant behind washroom basins. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Merle Common, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Community buildings around smaller places like Merle Common have kitchens and toilets used by many people. Fresh anti-mould sanitary silicone at sinks, worktops and toilets keeps them cleanable.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

When something else is needed
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Condensation from failed extract fans
- Loose panels, vanity units or tiles, which need fixing first
- Swollen or delaminated boards behind panels or vanity tops
If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Where we work in Merle Common
- Kitchens and tea points
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Urinals and WCs
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Vanity units and basins
Aftercare for building managers
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:
- Inspect washroom sealant regularly
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
- Keep extract fans working and vents clear
- Act on the first split you see at a shower tray
Add washroom sealant to routine inspections. Check for mould spots, splits, lifting edges and open joints at trays, basins and urinals and log what you find.
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 affects the price in Merle Common
To price the job, we consider:
- Access and working height
- The total length or number of joints

FAQs: Merle Common
Is Merle Common too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Will the toilets in our Merle Common building be out of use?
Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. Sanitary silicone needs time to cure before the area is used, and we’ll tell you how long for the product used.
Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?
Usually not. The mould is inside the silicone so cleaning only lightens it for a while. Replacing the bead is the lasting answer.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we will price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Do you phase washroom resealing?
We phase it so there are always facilities open. We work through the building a room or section at a time around your site hours and access windows.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
