Washroom sealing for businesses in Selsdon
Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. Planning a London job such as one in Selsdon starts with access: 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.
- We reseal with the grade suited to each area.
- We give you a reopening time for every room.
Getting the site ready
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Make sure the joints can be reached
Quotes
Every quote starts with the facts: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

About our washroom sealing in Selsdon
In a commercial washroom, sealant is typically the first thing to wear out. Around basins, urinals, cubicles, IPS panels and shower trays it takes water, soap, cleaning chemicals and knocks every day, and once mould grows into it, it can’t be scrubbed out. We strip it out and lay new anti-mould sanitary silicone. Most enquiries involve failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen and users noticing mouldy joints, across accessible toilets and changing rooms, IPS panels and cubicles and kitchens and tea points. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Selsdon tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
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.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Questions about Selsdon
Can you work on a hospital site such as Shirley Oaks Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Can you cope with the access rules in a London building?
Yes, we plan every London job around the building’s own access rules. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and our planning allows for it
Do you cover Selsdon?
Yes. We cover Selsdon, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. For a quote, ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
Is it possible to just clean mouldy silicone?
Normally not. Mould grows into the sealant itself, so it comes back however often it’s cleaned. Replacing the bead is the lasting answer.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
In many cases, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.

Washroom sealing in Selsdon: the local picture
A London building with hundreds of occupants can’t lose every washroom for a day, which is why the work is split into phases agreed in advance. A number of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Selsdon. En suite bathrooms, staff changing rooms and kitchens all need their sanitary silicone renewed in time. We work a handful of rooms at a time, so the hotel keeps letting the rest.
At a hospital like Shirley Oaks Hospital, 2.6 miles to the north of Selsdon, patient and staff washrooms are best done in short phases agreed with the ward. At a college such as John Ruskin College (0.6 miles north-east of Selsdon), washroom and kitchen sealant is best renewed in the holidays or in phases during term. Office toilets at parks like Capital Business Centre (to the west of Selsdon) take steady weekday use, and mouldy silicone soon shows.

Maintenance after handover
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Include joints in routine washroom inspections
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
- Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently
- Act on the first split you see at a shower tray
Include sealant joints in your planned maintenance checks. Look for black spotting, cracks, peeling edges and gaps at the busiest fittings and log what you find.
Water getting behind IPS panels and vanity units can swell the boards. Once that happens, a reseal won’t fix them.
Honest limits
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Panel boards already damaged by water
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Vanity units and basins
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Kitchens and tea points
- Urinals and WCs
Why it’s worth doing now in Selsdon
A failed joint behind a basin or along a shower tray lets water run where it shouldn’t. That can lead to swollen boards, marked ceilings below and lingering smells which costs more to fix than a reseal. In a London building, a failed joint rarely affects only one party. Putting it right early is less disruptive than dealing with the consequences.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.
