Washroom sealing in Shurlock Row, done properly
In a busy washroom, the sealant usually gives up long before the tiles or fittings. 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’re dealing with resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed and mould spotting along silicone joints, we can put it right. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Shurlock Row from the first photos to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
In and around smaller places like Shurlock Row, washroom work is often in halls, pubs, primary schools, care homes and holiday accommodation. Sealant that has gone black with mould normally can’t be cleaned, so it is cut out and replaced.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application.

Our process
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. If others near Shurlock Row need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- 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.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- New sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives goes in and is tooled neat.
- Each room is handed back once the sealant has had its cure time.
Getting the site ready
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Send any specification or drawings in advance

Advice
Leave it or put it right?
Bleaching black sealant may lighten it for a few days, but the mould is rooted in the silicone and comes back. Replacement deals with the cause in the joint and cleaners stop fighting a losing battle. Older rural buildings around Shurlock Row move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

What we are called out for in Shurlock Row
We often find acrylic caulk or general-purpose sealant in joints that should have sanitary silicone. They don’t stand up to constant water and they discolour and fail early.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean
- Shower tray joints that have opened up
- A new bead over an old one coming away
- Stained sealant around pans and urinals
At a school such as Waltham St Lawrence Primary School, changing rooms and kitchens need cleanable joints as much as the toilets.
What your quote should include
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?

Shurlock Row: questions and answers
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Wokingham Hospital, something you do?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like Newbold College of Higher Education?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Do you need to see the site first?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit before quoting.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited, we are a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
Can you send site paperwork?
Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.
Is any job too small?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Which sealant will you use?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
When it isn’t the sealant
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Vanity carcasses that have swollen
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
- Hollow tiles or loose panels behind the joint
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Kitchens and tea points
- Vanity units and basins
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Urinals and WCs
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
What the job involves on each surface
Showers and trays
A tray that rocks or has cracked won’t be fixed by sealant and we flag that beforehand.
Changing rooms and gyms
Gym and leisure changing rooms see showers running most of the day, so mould is a constant battle. We use anti-mould sanitary silicone throughout.

What else we do in Shurlock Row
Keeping the joints sound
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:
- Respect the cure time before reopening each room
- Add sealant joints to planned maintenance checks
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
- Squeegee showers and trays after busy periods
Keep extract fans working and vents clear. Constant damp lets mould take hold even on anti-mould grades, so get faulty extract looked at.
Boards behind panels and vanity tops can swell when water gets past a failed joint. Once that happens, a reseal won’t fix them.
