Washroom sealing near Merstone
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Why deal with it now?
A failed joint behind a basin or along a shower tray lets water run where it shouldn’t. That can lead to swollen boards, marked ceilings below and lingering smells which costs more to fix than a reseal. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Merstone, rather than one at a time. Send photographs of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: 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.

For managing agents and facilities managers
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first.
How the job changes by surface
Changing rooms and gyms
Gym and leisure changing rooms see showers running most of the day so sealant there works very hard. Anti-mould sanitary silicone is the standard choice.
IPS and cubicle panels
IPS panels and cubicle systems have joints at the wall, the floor and the worktop. They stop water reaching the panel boards.
How the quote is worked out
These are the things that shape the price:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Any access equipment needed
- The site’s rules and procedures
Pricing washrooms and wet areas depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.
Details that help us quote
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Your programme or deadline
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- The type of building and who uses it
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a site visit.
What we are called out for in Merstone
We often find acrylic caulk or general-purpose sealant in joints that should have sanitary silicone. They aren’t made for constant wetting and they discolour and fail early.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Urinal joints that look unhygienic
- Open joints at the base of cubicle panels
- Gaps where vanity tops meet the wall
- Sealant stained black around basins and showers
Customer toilets in retail centres such as Newport Retail Park, 2.6 miles to the north-west of Merstone, rarely close, so resealing is phased.
What your quote should include
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- What site paperwork they can supply
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?

Questions we’re asked in Merstone
Is a smaller place like Merstone outside your area?
Not at all. Merstone is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Is a hospital such as Whitecroft Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Can washrooms stay open while you work?
Only the area we’re working in is closed. Rooms go back into use once the sealant has cured, then we move on.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Is colour matching possible?
In many cases, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
What sealant do you use in washrooms?
It depends on the joint. Washrooms and showers take anti-mould sanitary silicone while kitchens may need a food-safe grade.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
