Washroom sealing in Picketts Lock, done properly
When mould has spotted a silicone joint, more cleaning won’t remove it. The growth is inside the sealant, which is why it comes back however often it is treated. Only replacement gets rid of it for good. We work on kitchens and tea points, showers, trays and wet room floors and accessible toilets and changing rooms, and what we’re called in for most is sealant lifting along a tray edge and complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Picketts Lock it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Many London buildings can’t close every toilet at once. Washrooms are done core by core or floor by floor, with signage and a plan agreed beforehand, so staff and visitors can always find an open washroom.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Looking after the joints
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
- Clean sealant with gentle products and a soft cloth
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
- Inspect washroom sealant regularly
Add washroom sealant to routine inspections. Check for mould spots, splits, lifting edges and open joints at trays, basins and urinals and photograph anything new.
In food areas, cleanability is something environmental health officers look at. Failed sealant around sinks and worktops is easy to put right in good time.

Should maintenance staff do it?
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
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. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
How a job runs
We follow your site rules from the start: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. With the paperwork done, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. For a job in Picketts Lock, access comes first: booked loading, goods lifts, the building’s permit system and a spot to keep materials. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry.
- First, the phasing is agreed so facilities stay open.
- Anything behind the joints that needs another trade is flagged.
- Old sealant is stripped and the faces prepared.
- The right sanitary or food-safe sealant is applied.
- We confirm reopening times for each washroom.
What we need from you
