How we handle washroom sealing in St Mary Cray
When mould has spotted a silicone joint, more cleaning won’t remove it. The growth is inside the sealant, which is why it comes back however often it is treated. Only replacement gets rid of it for good. We work on vanity units and basins, showers, trays and wet room floors and kitchens and tea points, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling and shower tray joints that have opened up. For commercial sealant work in St Mary Cray, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.
Building managers in St Mary Cray normally need some facilities open throughout. Washrooms are done core by core or floor by floor, with signage and a plan agreed beforehand, so staff and visitors can always find an open washroom.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

FAQs: St Mary Cray
Can you work in a London building with booked loading and goods-lift slots?
Yes, most London buildings have access rules of some kind, and we plan around them. Share the building’s contractor rules and we will work to them. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for
Can you work on a hospital site such as Queen Mary's Hospital?
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.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
Can washrooms stay open while you work?
Only the area we are working in is closed. Each room reopens after the sealant’s cure time and we start the next.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
What do you charge?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. For yours, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
Will cleaning remove black mould from sealant?
Usually not. The mould is inside the silicone, so it comes back however often it’s cleaned. Replacement is the lasting fix.

Commercial washrooms in St Mary Cray
St Mary Cray has several hotels close by, all within 2 miles. En suite bathrooms, staff changing rooms and kitchens all need their sanitary silicone renewed in time. We work a handful of rooms at a time, so the hotel keeps letting the rest. A London building with hundreds of occupants can’t lose every washroom for a day, so we take one block of facilities out of use at a time.
Office washrooms on sites such as Halo Business Park (less than half a mile east of St Mary Cray) are in use all working day, so resealing is phased to keep some open. For a hotel such as TLK Apartments & Hotel (less than half a mile north-east of St Mary Cray), resealing en suites a few rooms at a time keeps the rest available.

After the work
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:
- Tell us about infection-control or permit rules before we quote
- Report faulty extraction promptly
- Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone
- Note failing joints building by building
Keep extract fans working and vents clear. Constant damp lets mould take hold even on anti-mould grades, so get faulty extract looked at.
Small numbers of failed joints are quick to phase in. Left, it tends to become a building-wide job and more closures to manage.
How the quote is worked out
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Working within restricted access windows
- Access and working height
- The size and state of each joint
- Travel to remote or island sites
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
Before you send an enquiry
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- When you need the work done
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
For a fixed quote, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with the site address and an outline of the work. You can also send details through our quote form.
When to bring in a specialist
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Work for main contractors and building owners
CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we’re straightforward to vet for your supplier list. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules.
