About our washroom sealing in Ram Lane
In a busy washroom, the sealant normally gives up long before the tiles or fittings. Basin tops, urinal backs, panel joints and shower trays put it under water, chemicals and daily cleaning and mould that roots into it can’t be cleaned away. We strip it out and lay new anti-mould sanitary silicone. We work on kitchens and tea points, vanity units and basins and urinals and WCs, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are failed sealant behind washroom basins and a new bead over an old one coming away. Searching for sealant specialists in Ram Lane? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Rural businesses near smaller places such as Ram Lane, from cafés to event venues, rely on washrooms and kitchens that stay clean. Tell us your opening times and quiet periods and we’ll plan around them.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

Advice
Ram Lane: questions and answers
Will the toilets in our Ram Lane building be out of use?
Usually only some of them, for a short time. We work in phases so other facilities stay open. We’ll tell you the curing time for the product before we start.
Can you work on a hospital site such as William Harvey Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.
Can washrooms stay open while you work?
We phase it so there are always facilities open. We work through the building a room or section at a time. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photos and a postcode.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.
Can you quote from photos?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photographs and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Doing it in-house
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Keeping the joints sound
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Clean sealant with gentle products and a soft cloth
- Act on the first split you see at a shower tray
- Include joints in routine washroom inspections
- Clear standing water from shower floors where possible
Ask your cleaning team to use gentle products and soft cloths on sealant. Aggressive descalers, solvents and scouring pads shorten its life and give mould a start.
Mould in a joint spreads along the bead and into nearby grout and users notice. Dealing with it while it’s just the sealant keeps it simple.

Busy facilities in and around Ram Lane
Ram Lane lies roughly 45 miles out from central London, within the office belt around the capital. Office toilets in the commuter belt are in use from first arrivals to last departures, which is why the work is phased.
Clinical washrooms at sites like William Harvey Hospital, 5.4 miles south-east of Ram Lane, are scheduled with the ward so the room is out of use for as little time as possible. If you manage an office at a site such as Eurogate Business Park (2.9 miles south-east of Ram Lane), the washrooms and tea points can be done a floor at a time.

Quoting for work in Ram Lane
What shapes the price:
- Access and working height
- Working within restricted access windows
- The size and state of each joint
- How much there is to seal
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
What we need to price the job
We can often quote from photographs and a few details. Please tell us:
- Specification clauses that apply
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
Common problems we fix in Ram Lane
Much of the failed sealant we remove was applied over old silicone or residue. New silicone won’t grip the old so it peels away quickly.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Shower tray joints that have opened up
- Sealant stained black around basins and showers
- Panel joints letting water behind
- Complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms
Pupil toilets at schools like The Hayesbrook School take heavy daily use, and the holidays give the window to reseal.

- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
What we can’t put right
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Leaks through tanking or membranes below the finishes
- Hollow tiles or loose panels behind the joint
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
