Your questions answered
Will our hotel in Paulsgrove need to close for the work?
Almost never. The work is phased so most rooms stay available. Housekeeping and our team agree each day’s rooms.
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as University of Portsmouth - North Zone?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, tell us and we will confirm them with the quote.
How do you choose the sealant?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
What will the job cost?
That depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a quote and we will price it properly.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Can washrooms stay open while you work?
Only the area we’re working in is closed. Rooms go back into use once the sealant has cured and we start the next.
About our washroom sealing in Paulsgrove
Accessible WCs, showers and changing areas have their own pinch points: shower trays, wet-room floor edges, basins and floor-to-wall junctions. An open joint there lets water track under flooring or behind wall panels so they get particular attention. Site teams most often ask us about discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans and panel joints letting water behind, across vanity units and basins, showers, trays and wet room floors and IPS panels and cubicles. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Paulsgrove is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
A place of Paulsgrove’s size will typically have a few buildings with commercial washrooms: a school, a surgery, a pub or café, perhaps a care home. They don’t need a big crew, but they do need old sealant fully cut out before anti-mould silicone goes on.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Washroom sealing in Paulsgrove: the local picture
With the shore within about 1 mile, Paulsgrove counts as a coastal location, and places by the sea often rely on visitors, so their hotels and holiday lets see heavy seasonal use. Heavy seasonal use is hard on shower and basin sealant, and the quieter months are the natural time to reseal. Paulsgrove is about 62 miles from central London. Business park offices have washrooms in daily use by staff, so we phase work to keep some facilities open.
At a university such as University of Portsmouth - North Zone, 3.5 miles south of Paulsgrove, summer is the usual window for resealing residence bathrooms. On an industrial estate such as Oak Park Industrial Estate, which lies south-east of Paulsgrove, staff toilets, showers and canteens are where sanitary sealant takes the most wear.
Paulsgrove is about 3 miles north of Portsmouth, in Portsmouth. We send applicators to Paulsgrove for washrooms and wet areas. Paulsgrove is one of 19 places in Portsmouth on our list for washrooms and wet areas.
Commercial sites across PO6 are covered. Buildings on Bourne Road, Ludlow Road and Farmlea Road are within our area for washrooms and wet areas. Main routes into Paulsgrove include the M27 and A27, which helps when planning parking and deliveries for the job.

What sealant work can’t fix
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
- A dripping waste or valve behind a panel
- Vanity carcasses that have swollen
If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How the job changes by surface
Healthcare and care settings
Clinics, hospitals and care homes need joints that can be kept clean. Your infection-control and estates rules are followed and any permits the site uses.
Urinals and WC pans
Floor joints around WC pans are often forgotten. They are checked with everything else.
Keeping the joints sound
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone
- Keep a record of which washrooms need attention
- Tell us about infection-control or permit rules before we quote
- Respect the cure time before reopening each room
Ask your cleaning team to use gentle products and soft cloths on sealant. Aggressive descalers, solvents and scouring pads shorten its life over time.
A few failed joints can be resealed with hardly any disruption. Left, it tends to become a building-wide job with more phasing to plan.
What happens if it’s left?
Waiting for a holiday closure can leave failing joints in place for a long time. Phasing lets it happen now, with facilities kept in use. Small buildings around Paulsgrove suffer from failed joints as much as large ones. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.

Related advice
When to call us in Paulsgrove
Sometimes the sealant fails because something behind it is moving or wet: loose fixings, a dripping trap or damp in the wall. We check for that first and tell you if another trade is needed.
Things that normally lead to an enquiry:
- Panel joints letting water behind
- Washrooms that look worn because of the sealant
- Sealant stained black around basins and showers
- Open joints along basins and vanity units
Staff changing rooms and patient toilets at places like Queen Alexandra Hospital (to the east of Paulsgrove) need cleanable, sound silicone.
