What we are called out for in Scaynes Hill
Washrooms are warm, damp and full of organic residue, and sealant joints trap all three. Even anti-mould grades can be colonised over time where extraction is poor.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Shower tray joints that have opened up
- Discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans
- Sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling
- Failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen
At a college such as Haywards Heath College, 2.7 miles to the north-west of Scaynes Hill, washroom and kitchen sealant is best renewed in the holidays or in phases during term.
What your quote should include
- Proof of insurance
- What site paperwork they can supply
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- How joint depth will be controlled
Our process
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself normally takes between a morning and a week or so, set by the number of rooms and the phasing you need, and we clear our waste as we work. For work around Scaynes Hill, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We start by inspecting the fittings and joints and flagging problems sealant can’t solve.
- We agree which rooms close and when, so users always have somewhere to go.
- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
- Joints are cleaned, degreased and dried before sealing.
- A bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone goes in and is tooled to a smooth, cleanable profile.
- Rooms reopen after the product’s cure time, and we move to the next.
Preparing the site
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Advice
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
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.

FAQs: Scaynes Hill
Could you schedule work at a campus like University of Sussex for the vacation?
Yes. Education sites usually want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Can you work on a hospital site such as Princess Royal Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Is it possible to just clean mouldy silicone?
Not for long. Mould grows into the sealant itself so cleaning only lightens it for a while. Replacement is the lasting fix.
How long does a job like this take?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work typically takes between a morning and a week or so, set by the number of rooms and the phasing you need. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
Which silicone is right for commercial washrooms?
It depends on the joint. Most washroom joints take sanitary silicone, and food areas take a hygienic, food-safe sealant where food contact is possible.
Do you work in Scaynes Hill?
Yes. We cover Scaynes Hill, and the simplest way to start is to call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
Why deal with it now?
Running fresh silicone along a failed bead hides the problem briefly. Silicone won’t grip silicone, so it lifts and holds moisture underneath. Cutting out completely and cleaning back takes a little longer and lasts. Halls, stores and units around places like Scaynes Hill may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
Why us?
- Over 20 years of commercial sealing
- Fully insured
- Colours confirmed for the specified product
- CSCS-carded applicators
When something else is needed
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be any of the following:
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
- Panel boards already damaged by water
If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
