How we handle washroom sealing in Sheering
Since 2005 we have resealed commercial washrooms for facilities teams, contractors and building owners. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with CSCS-carded applicators. We are fully insured. Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. The enquiries we see most involve shower tray joints that have opened up and stained sealant around pans and urinals, across showers, trays and wet room floors, vanity units and basins and accessible toilets and changing rooms. Most enquiries from Sheering start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
In and around smaller places like Sheering, washroom work is often in halls, pubs, primary schools, care homes and holiday accommodation. Mould gets into sealant in any washroom that doesn’t dry out, and once it’s in, the sealant is replaced.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we are clear about what is covered before work starts.

What sets the cost
These are the things that shape the price:
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- The total length or number of joints
- Access and working height
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
What to include in your enquiry
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Specification clauses that apply
- The postcode of the building
A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.
Honest limits
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Should maintenance staff do it?
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.
Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Toilets, showers and kitchens around Sheering
Central London is about 24 miles from Sheering, within the office belt around the capital. Washrooms in commuter-belt offices take constant weekday traffic, which is why the work is phased. A 2-mile radius around Sheering takes in a number of hotels. Each has en suites, back-of-house toilets and kitchens with sealant that moulds and splits. The work can go floor by floor, agreed with housekeeping.
For a hall at a building such as Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin, resealing the kitchen and toilets can be fitted between bookings. At a school such as Hatfield Heath Primary School, changing rooms and kitchens need cleanable joints as much as the toilets. For buildings on a site such as Allen House Business Centre, 1.1 miles to the north-west of Sheering, washrooms and tea points can be resealed in phases through the working week.

Green spaces nearby include Portingbury Hills and Sawbridgeworth Marsh.
Why deal with it now?
Waiting for a holiday closure can leave failing joints in place for a long time. With phasing, the work can go ahead while most facilities stay open. For buildings around smaller places like Sheering, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

How the job changes by surface
Kitchens and tea points
Worktop, sink and splashback joints in tea points take water and food. Sound joints keep those surfaces easy to clean.
Basins and vanity tops
Stone and some composite tops need a neutral-cure sealant and we choose a neutral-cure grade for them.
Our process
Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them. While we’re working, the area stays contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. Jobs in and around smaller places like Sheering are usually planned as a single visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- Every washroom is checked joint by joint, with loose panels, leaks or damp noted for the right trade.
- The phasing is agreed so there are always facilities open.
- The failed silicone is stripped and every face scraped clean of residue.
- Joints are cleaned, degreased and dried before sealing.
- We lay a sanitary silicone bead and tool it smooth so it is easy to clean.
- You get a reopening time for every room, with signage left up until then.
Getting the site ready
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Point out any areas we must not close

Advice
FAQs: Sheering
Can you work on a hospital site such as Rivers Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Does a hotel in Sheering need to shut while its sealant is renewed?
Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. The plan is built around your bookings.
Can washrooms stay open while you work?
We phase it so there are always facilities open. One washroom, one bank of cubicles or one changing room is done at a time. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, let us know and we will send them with the quote.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. A group of buildings can go on one quote, and you deal with one contact throughout across South East England, Greater London and Scotland.
