Monk Street: questions and answers
Is Monk Street too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Monk Street is within our area. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Will the toilets in our Monk Street building be out of use?
Rarely all at once: work is phased so some facilities are always available. Sanitary silicone needs time to cure before the area is used, and we’ll tell you how long for the product used.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
What do you charge?
Each job is quoted on its own details. To get one, phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
Do you need to remove the old sealant?
The whole of the old bead is removed and the surfaces cleaned first. That’s what makes the new joint last.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
Washroom sealing in Monk Street, done properly
Whether it’s a single toilet block in Monk Street or a programme across several buildings, the route is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. Photos and a rough count of basins, urinals, showers and cubicles help us give a quick quote and a site visit is an option. Site teams most often ask us about split or peeling sealant at shower trays and black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift, on accessible toilets and changing rooms, showers, trays and wet room floors and urinals and WCs. For commercial sealant work in Monk Street, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.
Community buildings around smaller places like Monk Street have kitchens and toilets used by many people. Fresh anti-mould sanitary silicone at sinks, worktops and toilets keeps them cleanable.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Should maintenance staff do it?
Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Leave it or put it right?
Waiting for a holiday closure can leave failing joints in place for a long time. With phasing, the work can go ahead while most facilities stay open. For buildings around smaller places like Monk Street, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Resealing early avoids that.
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Honest limits
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Leaks through tanking or membranes below the finishes
- Swollen or delaminated boards behind panels or vanity tops
- Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.

Maintenance after handover
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Share your site rules when you send details
- Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone
- Squeegee showers and trays after busy periods
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
Any failure in our workmanship within the 12-month guarantee is ours to put right. Beyond that, regular checks keep small problems small.
Leaks through tray and wet-floor joints can go unseen until a ceiling marks below. By then, other trades may be needed as well so failed joints are worth acting on quickly.
