How we handle washroom sealing in New Barn
Black spotting along a sealant bead is not a cleaning problem. The mould has rooted into the silicone itself, which is why it comes back however often it is treated. Only replacement gets rid of it for good. Most enquiries involve mould spotting along silicone joints and discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans, across accessible toilets and changing rooms, kitchens and tea points and IPS panels and cubicles. A single leaking joint is often how a building in New Barn first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
In a smaller place such as New Barn, commercial washrooms tend to be in schools, pubs, cafés, surgeries, care homes and sports clubs. They don’t need a big crew, but they do need old sealant fully cut out before anti-mould silicone goes on.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

FAQs: New Barn
Is New Barn too far out for you?
Not at all. New Barn is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Gravesham Community Hospital, something you do?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
How soon can a washroom be used after resealing?
That varies with the sealant and the room temperature. You’ll get a reopening time for each area, and signs stay up until then.
Is any job too small?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Send details for a fixed quote.
Do you phase washroom resealing?
Only the area we are working in is closed. Rooms go back into use once the sealant has cured and we start the next.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
How do we ask for a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.

What else we do in New Barn
Should maintenance staff do it?
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
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.
Aftercare for building managers
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Inspect washroom sealant regularly
- Respect the cure time before reopening each room
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
Each room goes back into use only when the sealant has cured enough. You’ll be told when showers and basins can be used again and signage stays in place until that time.
Small numbers of failed joints are quick to phase in. Left, it tends to become a building-wide job with more phasing to plan.

Why deal with it now?
Washrooms shape how visitors judge a building. Guests, clients, pupils and patients notice stained joints even when the room is otherwise spotless. Resealing is a modest task with a very visible payoff. Over time, UV, weather and movement wear any sealant out. Replacing it before it fails keeps water out.
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.
