Washroom sealing in Slaugham
Since 2005 we have resealed commercial washrooms for facilities teams, contractors and building owners. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with CSCS-carded applicators. We are fully insured. Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. We work on IPS panels and cubicles, vanity units and basins and kitchens and tea points, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels and sealant stained black around basins and showers. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Slaugham tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
In and around smaller places like Slaugham, washroom work is often in halls, pubs, primary schools, care homes and holiday accommodation. Mould gets into sealant in any washroom that doesn’t dry out, and once it’s in, the sealant is replaced.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

What we can’t put right
Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Loose panels, vanity units or tiles, which need fixing first
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
- Swollen or delaminated boards behind panels or vanity tops
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Vanity units and basins
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Urinals and WCs
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Kitchens and tea points
From enquiry to sign-off
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. For work around Slaugham, 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.
- We agree which rooms close and when, so users always have somewhere to go.
- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
- Joints are cleaned, degreased and dried before sealing.
- A bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone goes in and is tooled to a smooth, cleanable profile.
- Each room is handed back once the sealant has had its cure time.
Before we start on site
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in

Advice
After the work
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Mention any site permits or estates rules at quote stage
- Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently
- Note failing joints building by building
- Report faulty extraction promptly
Where possible, have shower floors and trays squeegeed after busy periods. Standing water on a joint all day shortens its life.
Water getting behind IPS panels and vanity units can swell the boards. Once that happens, a reseal won’t fix them.
Washroom sealing around Slaugham: points for this area
Slaugham lies roughly 32 miles out from central London, in a commuter belt where offices and business parks are common. Office washrooms on business parks see heavy weekday use, which is why the work is phased.
Halls linked to places like St Mary's Church host groups all week, which is hard on kitchen and toilet sealant. Healthcare washrooms on sites such as Crawley Hospital (to the north of Slaugham) are resealed area by area, under the site’s own infection-control rules. At a school such as Warninglid Primary School, changing rooms and kitchens need cleanable joints as much as the toilets.

How the job changes by surface
IPS and cubicle panels
IPS panels and cubicle systems have joints at the wall, the floor and the worktop. Those joints protect the boards behind from water.
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.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Slaugham: questions and answers
Can you work on a hospital site such as Crawley Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Must every washroom in our Slaugham building shut while you work?
Normally only some of them, for a short time. We work in phases so other facilities stay open. Sanitary silicone needs time to cure before the area is used, and we will tell you how long for the product used.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
It depends on the product. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited, we are a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
How much does the work cost?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. To get one, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with a description of the work.
What sealant do you use in washrooms?
It depends on the joint. Washrooms and showers take anti-mould sanitary silicone while kitchens may need a food-safe grade.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
Why it’s worth doing now in Slaugham
A tired washroom says a lot about how a building is run. Visitors notice black sealant even when the room is otherwise spotless. Resealing is a modest task with a very visible payoff. Older rural buildings around Slaugham move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
