Washroom sealing in Sissinghurst, done properly
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 will plan around them. We work on accessible toilets and changing rooms, kitchens and tea points and vanity units and basins, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are open joints along basins and vanity units and stained sealant around pans and urinals. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Sissinghurst from the first photographs to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Farm shops, cafés and venues in converted rural buildings around places like Sissinghurst have busy toilets and kitchens. We plan the work around bookings and opening times.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Signs you need washroom sealing in Sissinghurst
Washrooms are warm, damp and full of organic residue, and sealant joints trap all three. Even anti-mould grades can be colonised over time where extraction is poor.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Stained sealant around pans and urinals
- Failed sealant behind washroom basins
- Users noticing mouldy joints
- Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
For a hall at a building such as Church of the Holy Trinity, resealing the kitchen and toilets can be fitted between bookings.
What your quote should include
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- How the existing material will be dealt with
How the quote is worked out
To price the job, we consider:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- The site’s rules and procedures
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Sending details for a quote
The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- The postcode of the building
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.
Common questions from Sissinghurst clients
Will our hotel in Sissinghurst need to close for the work?
In the majority of cases no closure is needed: we work room by room or floor by floor. The plan is built around your bookings.
Is Sissinghurst too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Do you work in hospitals, clinics and care homes?
We work in clinics, hospitals and care homes. Any records you need are confirmed with the quote.
Will cleaning remove black mould from sealant?
Surface cleaning won’t reach mould that has rooted into the bead. New anti-mould sanitary silicone is the treatment and point out if ventilation is part of the problem.
What do you charge?
That depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll price it properly.
Can washrooms stay open while you work?
Only the area we’re working in is closed. Each room reopens after the sealant’s cure time and we start the next.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.

What else we do in Sissinghurst
When it isn’t the sealant
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It isn’t the answer for:
- Loose panels, vanity units or tiles, which need fixing first
- A dripping waste or valve behind a panel
- Leaks through tanking or membranes below the finishes
Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Kitchens and tea points
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Vanity units and basins
- Urinals and WCs
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
What happens if it’s left?
Sealing on top of old silicone saves nothing. Silicone won’t grip silicone, so it lifts and holds moisture underneath. Full removal and proper cleaning is what makes the new joint last. Halls, stores and units around places like Sissinghurst may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
