Washroom sealing in Monkey Street
We reseal washrooms and wet areas in offices, hotels, schools, universities, gyms, healthcare buildings and care homes, along with staff kitchens and tea points. Product and method follow how hard each area is used and cleaned. Most enquiries involve sealant lifting along a tray edge and failed sealant behind washroom basins, across IPS panels and cubicles, showers, trays and wet room floors and vanity units and basins. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Monkey Street from the first photographs to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
Community buildings around smaller places like Monkey Street have kitchens and toilets used by many people. Fresh anti-mould sanitary silicone at sinks, worktops and toilets keeps them cleanable.

Your questions answered
Will all the washrooms in our Monkey Street building be closed at once?
Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. Each area is handed back once the sealant has cured enough to use.
What documents will you need to give us for a job in Monkey Street?
RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we will confirm it with the quote. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?
Surface cleaning won’t reach mould that has rooted into the bead. New anti-mould sanitary silicone is the treatment and check the ventilation isn’t the cause.
How long do sealant joints last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Is it OK to put new silicone on top of the old?
The failed bead is always removed. Fresh silicone can’t key to an old bead, so sealing over it soon peels.
How soon can a washroom be used after resealing?
Each sealant has a cure time before it should get wet. Phasing is planned with the cure time in mind so facilities are never short.
For managing agents and facilities managers
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.

When to call us in Monkey Street
We often find acrylic caulk or general-purpose sealant in joints that should have sanitary silicone. They don’t stand up to constant water, and they stain, crack or wash out.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- A new bead over an old one coming away
- Urinal joints that look unhygienic
- Split or peeling sealant at shower trays
- Kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean
For buildings on a site such as Plough Road Business Centre, 2.7 miles to the south of Monkey Street, washrooms and tea points can be resealed in phases through the working week.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, with the work itself typically taking between a morning and a week or so, set by the number of rooms and the phasing you need. If others near Monkey Street need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- We start by inspecting the fittings and joints and flagging problems sealant can’t solve.
- The phasing is agreed so there are always facilities open.
- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- We lay a sanitary silicone bead and tool it smooth so it is easy to clean.
- You get a reopening time for every room, with signage left up until then.

Advice
What affects the price in Monkey Street
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:
- Which sealant the job calls for
- The size and state of each joint
- Access and working height
- Travel to remote or island sites
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.
What we need to price the job
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Your programme or deadline
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
A handful of photos and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Upload them with the quote form, or ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings if you’d rather talk the job through.
When to bring in a specialist
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.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. 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.
Aftercare for building managers
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:
- Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently
- Keep extract fans working and vents clear
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
- Photograph and log failed joints across the estate
Keep extract fans working and vents clear. Constant damp lets mould take hold even on anti-mould grades so report fans that aren’t working to your building services team.
Mould in a joint spreads along the bead and into nearby grout, and complaints follow. Replacing it early keeps the job to a reseal.
