About our washroom sealing in Shepherd's Bush
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. The fix is to remove it completely and reseal with sanitary silicone containing anti-mould additives. If you have complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms and sealant lifting along a tray edge, we can put it right. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Shepherd's Bush, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Restaurants, cafés and hotel kitchens across London have joints at worktops, sinks and wall cladding that need to stay smooth and cleanable. Hygienic and anti-mould sanitary sealants are used where they suit, with food-safe products where food contact is possible.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

What happens if it’s left?
When a washroom looks worn, a refit isn’t the only answer. If the finishes are in good order, replacing the sealant may do much of what’s needed for now. Access in London is hard enough to arrange once, so it makes sense to deal with every failing joint while access is in place.
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

What we are called out for in Shepherd's Bush
Commercial cleaning is harder on sealant than everyday use. Strong chemicals, scourers and jet washing roughen, discolour or lift a bead so grime sticks to the damaged surface.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Panel joints letting water behind
- Complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms
- Black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift
- Sealant lifting along a tray edge
Customer toilets in retail centres such as Kensington Arcade (to the east of Shepherd's Bush) rarely close, so resealing is phased.
Questions to ask before you book
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- How they’ll work around occupants
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
Wet areas in Shepherd's Bush’s workplaces
Shepherd's Bush has a good number of hotels close by, all within 2 miles. En suite bathrooms, staff changing rooms and kitchens all need their sanitary silicone renewed in time. The work can go floor by floor, agreed with housekeeping. In London buildings, toilets and showers generally need to stay partly open, so we take one block of facilities out of use at a time.
Office washrooms on sites such as Berghem Mews Business Village (less than half a mile south of Shepherd's Bush) are in use all working day, so resealing is phased to keep some open. At a college such as St Charles Catholic Sixth Form College, which lies north of Shepherd's Bush, washroom and kitchen sealant is best renewed in the holidays or in phases during term.

How a job runs
On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, and the work typically takes half a day to a day per washroom, depending on the number of fittings. Most London premises stay occupied while we are on site, so zones and timings are agreed with whoever manages the building. Areas are handed back as each section is finished.

- You get a fixed quote with the phasing plan.
- The whole of the old bead is removed.
- Joints are degreased and dried.
- New anti-mould sealant goes in and is tooled neat.
- Each area is handed back when ready.

Looking after the joints
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Make sure washroom ventilation is running
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
- Include joints in routine washroom inspections
- Keep a record of which washrooms need attention
Any failure in our workmanship within the 12-month guarantee is ours to put right. After that, a routine look catches failing joints early.
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.
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchens and tea points
Kitchen joints need to be smooth and sealed so they can be cleaned properly. Food-safe sealants are used where food may touch the joint.
Changing rooms and gyms
Showers, floor edges and vanity units in changing rooms all need sound sealant and we look at them as one job.

Your questions answered
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Queen Charlotte's & Chelsea Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as BPP University?
Yes. Education sites typically want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Can you clean the mould off instead of resealing?
Cleaning may lighten it, but the mould returns. We replace the sealant with an anti-mould sanitary grade and check the ventilation isn’t the cause.
How long will the new sealant last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
How much does the work cost?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. Send photos or drawings and we’ll price it at a fixed figure.
Can washrooms stay open while you work?
Just the room being resealed is out of use. Each room reopens after the sealant’s cure time, then we move on.
Is there a guarantee on the work?
Our workmanship has a 12-month guarantee, and we carry public liability insurance.
