How we handle washroom sealing in Shere
You can’t shut every toilet in an office, school or hotel at once. We phase the work one washroom, one bank of cubicles or one changing room at a time, so staff, guests or pupils always have somewhere to go. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them. We work on urinals and WCs, IPS panels and cubicles and accessible toilets and changing rooms, and what we’re called in for most is gaps where vanity tops meet the wall and shower tray joints that have opened up. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Shere first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Community buildings around smaller places like Shere have kitchens and toilets used by many people. Resealing sinks, worktops and WCs with anti-mould silicone keeps them clean and watertight.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

How a job runs
Diagnose, treat, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. If others near Shere need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- Every washroom is checked joint by joint, with loose panels, leaks or damp noted for the right trade.
- We agree which rooms close and when, so users always have somewhere to go.
- The failed silicone is stripped and every face scraped clean of residue.
- Each joint is degreased and left dry, because silicone won’t bond to damp or soapy surfaces.
- A bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone goes in and is tooled to a smooth, cleanable profile.
- You get a reopening time for every room, with signage left up until then.
Preparing the site
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Advice
What the job involves on each surface
Healthcare and care settings
We phase washroom sealing so care areas are never left without facilities. Records you need can be confirmed with the quote.
Showers and trays
In staff, hotel and changing-room showers, the tray joint and wall corners take the hardest use. Each bead is stripped, the joint dried and new sealant laid.
Washroom sealing around Shere: what changes locally
Central London is about 25 miles from Shere, within the office belt around the capital. Washrooms in commuter-belt offices take constant weekday traffic, so we work a block of facilities at a time.
Halls linked to places like The Church of St James host groups all week, which is hard on kitchen and toilet sealant. Schools such as Shere CofE Aided Infant School have toilets, changing rooms and kitchens that are best resealed in the holidays. Staff changing rooms and patient toilets at places like St. Luke’s Hospital, 4.2 miles west of Shere, need cleanable, sound silicone.
Shere is about 5 miles east of Guildford, in Surrey. We cover Shere, and jobs here get the same fixed quote and 12-month guarantee as anywhere else. We work across 379 places in Surrey. We also cover London, around 25 miles from Shere.
We cover the GU5 postcode districts for washrooms and wet areas. If your site is on Lower Street, Orchard Road and Shere Lane or close by, we can quote for washrooms and wet areas.

Further afield, our area takes in Guildford (5 miles west), Woking (8 miles north-west), Camberley (14 miles north-west), Epsom (12 miles north-east), Horley (13 miles east) and Redhill (13 miles east).

Other services in Shere
For managing agents and facilities managers
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites. One quote can cover more than one site, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
When to bring in a specialist
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, 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.
Shere: questions and answers
Will the toilets in our Shere building be out of use?
Rarely all at once: work is phased so some facilities are always available. Sanitary silicone needs time to cure before the area is used, and we will tell you how long for the product used.
Would you work within a site like St. Luke’s 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.
Do you phase washroom resealing?
The work is phased so there are always facilities open. One washroom, one bank of cubicles or one changing room is done at a time around your site hours and access windows.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Can you reseal washrooms in healthcare buildings?
We do. Your infection-control rules, estates requirements and permits are followed, and phase the work so areas keep facilities.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
What guarantee comes with washroom resealing?
A 12-month guarantee covers the work. It covers our workmanship rather than damage, leaks from plumbing or ventilation problems.
What we can’t put right
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we are upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- A room that stays damp because ventilation isn’t working
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on

Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- How accessible the joints are
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- How much there is to seal
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
Sending details for a quote
There’s no need for a formal survey. These details are enough to start:
- The type of building and who uses it
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Clear photos of the problem areas
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
