Leave it or put it right?
Gaps and mould in joints give dirt and bacteria somewhere to sit, and in kitchens, clinics and schools that is a real concern. A smooth, sealed joint can be cleaned properly. Older rural buildings around Stanmore 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.

Washroom sealing in Stanmore
Whether it’s a single toilet block in Stanmore or a programme across several buildings, we work the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. Photos and a rough count of basins, urinals, showers and cubicles help us give a quick quote and a site visit is an option. We work on vanity units and basins, showers, trays and wet room floors and urinals and WCs, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are split or peeling sealant at shower trays and open joints at the base of cubicle panels. Most enquiries from Stanmore start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Farm shops, cafés and venues in converted rural buildings around places like Stanmore have busy toilets and kitchens. Tell us your opening times and quiet periods and we will plan around them.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

Questions about Stanmore
Must every washroom in our Stanmore building shut while you work?
Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. We will tell you the curing time for the product before we start.
What site paperwork comes with a job in Stanmore?
RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we will confirm it with the quote. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
How long before the toilets can reopen?
That varies with the sealant and the room temperature. You will get a reopening time for each area before we leave it.
Is it possible to just clean mouldy silicone?
Surface cleaning won’t reach mould that has rooted into the bead. We replace the sealant with an anti-mould sanitary grade and check the ventilation isn’t the cause.
Do you use special sealant for toilets and showers?
It depends on the joint. Most washroom joints take sanitary silicone, and food areas take a hygienic, food-safe sealant where food contact is possible.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and any queries are raised before we start.
Is it OK to put new silicone on top of the old?
The whole of the old bead is removed and the surfaces cleaned before resealing. That’s what makes the new joint last.
How a job runs
Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. For work around Stanmore, we aim to finish in one visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.

Signs you need washroom sealing in Stanmore
Panels and vanity units move slightly in use and trays shift slightly with each user. If the joint wasn’t laid to take that movement, it tears or peels away.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Open joints along basins and vanity units
- Black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift
- Panel joints letting water behind
- Resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed
For a hall at a building such as Church of St Nicholas, resealing the kitchen and toilets can be fitted between bookings.
What your quote should include
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?

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 easy to get wrong without experience.
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
