Washroom sealing in Nursling, done properly
Washroom joints need the right sealant, not whatever is to hand. Sanitary grades carry anti-mould additives, and neutral-cure versions avoid the damage acetoxy types can do to some metals, stone and mirror backings. Where food contact is possible, we use a hygienic, food-safe grade. Site teams most often ask us about failed sealant behind washroom basins and split or peeling sealant at shower trays, across accessible toilets and changing rooms, vanity units and basins and showers, trays and wet room floors. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Nursling? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
A place of Nursling’s size will typically have a few buildings with commercial washrooms: a school, a surgery, a pub or café, perhaps a care home. However small, each needs the old sealant removed completely and anti-mould sanitary silicone applied to clean, dry joints.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. Should something we installed fail, call the office on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will come back to it.

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. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

Our process
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work typically takes a morning or so for a small washroom, longer where showers and changing rooms are included, and we clear our waste as we work. What matters most for a job in Nursling is a clear list of what needs doing. A fixed quote follows.
- 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.
- The failed silicone is stripped and every face scraped clean of residue.
- 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.
What we need from you
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Move anything stored against the joints

When something else is needed
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Loose panels, vanity units or tiles, which need fixing first
- Panel boards already damaged by water
- Condensation from failed extract fans
Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Vanity units and basins
- Urinals and WCs
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Kitchens and tea points
Leave it or put it right?
A tired washroom says a lot about how a building is run. 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. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Replacing it before it fails keeps water out.
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

What we are called out for in Nursling
Sometimes the sealant fails because something behind it is moving or wet: loose fixings, a dripping trap or damp in the wall. We look for it before resealing and say if it needs a plumber or another trade.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Mould spotting along silicone joints
- Kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean
- Panel joints letting water behind
- Open joints along basins and vanity units
Student showers at universities like University of Southampton, 3.1 miles to the east of Nursling, see more use than most, and their silicone shows it.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- How joint depth will be controlled
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
Aftercare for building managers
For the best life from the joints:
- Respect the cure time before reopening each room
- Mention any site permits or estates rules at quote stage
- Keep a record of which washrooms need attention
- Make sure washroom ventilation is running
Where possible, have shower floors and trays squeegeed after busy periods. Joints that sit wet for hours fail sooner.
A few failed joints can be resealed with hardly any disruption. Left, it tends to become a building-wide job and more closures to manage.
Questions about Nursling
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University of Southampton?
Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we will plan the work around them. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Can work in a care setting near Nursling go ahead while residents are there?
Yes. We agree rooms and times with the manager and work a few areas at a time. We follow the home’s own procedures throughout.
Will you quote for a small job?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Send details for a fixed quote.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit normally takes a morning or so for a small washroom, longer where showers and changing rooms are included. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.
How much does the work cost?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. To get one, phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with a description of the work.
Washroom sealing around Nursling: points for this area
Nursling lies within about 2 miles of the sea, and coastal hotels, guest houses and holiday sites tend to fill up in the busy months. Showers and en suites in constant use are where silicone moulds and splits first, so resealing in the quieter months keeps rooms ready. There are three care or nursing homes within about 2 miles of Nursling. Care home wet rooms and en suites are used every day and cleaned hard, which tells on the silicone. Work is agreed with the manager, around residents’ routines.
For a site such as Princess Anne Hospital, 1.5 miles east of Nursling, sanitary joints in clinical areas need sound, cleanable sealant and a careful method.
