Washroom sealing in Nine Ashes, done properly
Closing all the facilities in a building isn’t an option. Work is phased by room or by section, so staff, guests or pupils always have somewhere to go. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them. We work on kitchens and tea points, vanity units and basins and accessible toilets and changing rooms, and what we’re called in for most is shower tray joints that have opened up and mould spotting along silicone joints. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Nine Ashes is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Farm shops, cafés and venues in converted rural buildings around places like Nine Ashes have busy toilets and kitchens. Tell us your opening times and quiet periods and we’ll plan around them.
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.

What sets the cost
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- How much there is to seal
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- The product specified
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
Pricing washrooms and wet areas depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.
Details that help us quote
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- The product your specification calls for
- Any dates the work must fit around
- The postcode of the building
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we’ll put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
When it isn’t the sealant
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
- Swollen or delaminated boards behind panels or vanity tops
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll tell you honestly.

Why act early in Nine Ashes
A tired washroom says a lot about how a building is run. Visitors notice black sealant even when the room is otherwise spotless. Fresh sanitary silicone lifts a room with very little disruption. Around Nine Ashes, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Send photographs of each area and we will 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. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Related advice
General trades versus a specialist
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Different surfaces, different methods
Changing rooms and gyms
Changing rooms in gyms and leisure centres stay wet and warm, so mould is a constant battle. We use anti-mould sanitary silicone throughout.
Showers and trays
Shower joints in hotels, gyms and workplaces work hard. Every joint is stripped, degreased, dried and given a new bead.
Questions about Nine Ashes
Can you work on a hospital site such as Brentwood Community Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Is Nine Ashes off your patch?
Not at all. Nine Ashes is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Will you come and look before quoting?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?
Not for long. The mould is inside the silicone so cleaning only lightens it for a while. Replacing the bead is the lasting answer.
How long do sealant joints last?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.
Can washrooms stay open while you work?
We phase it so there are always facilities open. One washroom, one bank of cubicles or one changing room is done at a time around your site hours and access windows.
