The price depends on the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you’re ready.

Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Shirburn
In healthcare and care settings, sealing is part of keeping surfaces cleanable. Your estates and infection-control requirements, and any permits the site uses, shape how we work. Tell us what records you need and we’ll confirm with the quote. Site teams most often ask us about mould spotting along silicone joints and washrooms that look worn because of the sealant, on showers, trays and wet room floors, accessible toilets and changing rooms and urinals and WCs. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Shirburn is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Halls and community buildings near places like Shirburn are used by different groups through the week, and their toilets and kitchens show it. Resealing sinks, worktops and WCs with anti-mould silicone keeps them clean and watertight.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

What happens if it’s left?
Open or mouldy joints are hard to keep hygienic, and in kitchens, clinics and schools that is a real concern. Sound, smooth joints are much easier to keep clean. For buildings around smaller places like Shirburn, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Resealing early avoids that.
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
Why us?
- Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available
- Failed material removed, not covered up

Read our cost guide or our accreditations.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Common questions from Shirburn clients
Is a smaller place like Shirburn outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
What site paperwork comes with a job in Shirburn?
Whatever your site asks for, from RAMS to CSCS details, is confirmed when we quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, and you deal with one contact throughout.
Can you quote from photos?
It depends on the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Which silicone is right for commercial washrooms?
Sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives for most washroom joints. We use neutral-cure versions on stone, some metals and near mirrors.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, tell us and we will confirm them with the quote.

Questions to ask before you book

- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
