Surface by surface
Urinals and WC pans
Urinal backs, troughs and slab joints are resealed with sanitary silicone once the whole of the old bead has gone.
IPS and cubicle panels
Cubicle and IPS panels move when leaned on or knocked, so the sealant has to take that movement. We check fixings before sealing.
Washroom sealing in Sidlesham
Accessible toilets, shower rooms and changing rooms have joints that work harder than most: shower trays, wet-room floor edges, basins and floor-to-wall junctions. An open joint there lets water track under flooring or behind wall panels, so we look at them closely. If you have stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops and sealant lifting along a tray edge, we can help, whatever the surface. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Sidlesham, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Smaller places such as Sidlesham still have commercial washrooms and kitchens: in halls, pubs, schools, care homes and farm-based businesses. Sealant that has gone black with mould typically can’t be cleaned, so it is cut out and replaced.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

How a job runs
Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked with your site contact. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. For work around Sidlesham, we aim to finish in one visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We survey each room, count the joints and note anything behind them that needs another trade.
- A phasing plan keeps part of the building’s facilities in use at all times.
- We strip out the old bead and clean off the residue left behind.
- 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.
- Rooms reopen after the product’s cure time, and we move to the next.
What we need from you
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in

Looking after the joints
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone
- Keep washrooms out of use until we say the sealant has cured
- Keep extract fans working and vents clear
- Share your site rules when you send details
Mild cleaning products and non-abrasive cloths look after sanitary silicone best. Strong acids, solvents and scourers wear the surface over time.
Boards behind panels and vanity tops can swell when water gets past a failed joint. After that, those parts need replacing rather than resealing.
Leave it or put it right?
When a washroom looks worn, a refit isn’t the only answer. Where tiles, panels and fittings are sound, new sealant may be enough to put it right while bigger works are planned. Halls, stores and units around places like Sidlesham may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
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.

Commercial washrooms in Sidlesham
Sidlesham lies within about 1 mile of the sea, and coastal hotels, guest houses and holiday sites tend to fill up in the busy months. Showers and en suites in constant use are where silicone moulds and splits first, which is why off-season resealing makes sense. At about 58 miles from central London, Sidlesham is within reach of the capital. Business park offices have washrooms in daily use by staff, so we phase work to keep some facilities open.
For a site such as St Richard's Hospital, which lies north of Sidlesham, sanitary joints in clinical areas need sound, cleanable sealant and a careful method. At a college such as West Sussex Alternative Provision College, which lies north of Sidlesham, washroom and kitchen sealant is best renewed in the holidays or in phases during term. Office washrooms on sites such as Enborne Business Park (to the south of Sidlesham) are in use all working day, so resealing is phased to keep some open.
Sidlesham is about 3 miles north of Selsey, in West Sussex. We send applicators to Sidlesham for washrooms and wet areas, handled exactly as we handle every other area. Across West Sussex, 373 places are covered, including Sidlesham. We also cover Portsmouth, some 13 miles away.

Questions about Sidlesham
Can work at a site such as University of Chichester fit around teaching?
Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we will plan the work around them. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Is a smaller place like Sidlesham outside your area?
Not at all. Sidlesham is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Is colour matching possible?
In many cases, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Is old silicone taken out first?
The failed bead is always removed. New silicone won’t stick to the old so a bead over the top fails quickly.
How do you choose the sealant?
The specification comes first, if there is one. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, let us know and we will send them with the quote.
Should maintenance staff do it?
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
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. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
What sealant work can’t fix
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Condensation from failed extract fans
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think.
