How we handle washroom sealing in Staplers
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. Give us your site hours and access windows and the phasing is planned around them. We work on IPS panels and cubicles, showers, trays and wet room floors and urinals and WCs, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are open joints at the base of cubicle panels and gaps where vanity tops meet the wall. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Staplers it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
A place of Staplers’s size will typically have a few buildings with commercial washrooms: a school, a surgery, a pub or café, perhaps a care home. They don’t need a big crew, but they do need old sealant fully cut out before anti-mould silicone goes on.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Questions we are asked in Staplers
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as HTP Apprenticeship College?
Yes. Education sites normally want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Is Staplers too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.
Which sealant will you use?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Can you reseal washrooms in healthcare buildings?
We do. We work to your estates and infection-control requirements and any site permits, and phase the work so areas keep facilities.
How soon can a washroom be used after resealing?
Cure times vary by product and temperature. You will get a reopening time for each area before we leave it.
Can washrooms stay open while you work?
Just the room being resealed is out of use. Rooms go back into use once the sealant has cured, then we move on.
Our process
Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on 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 a site in Staplers, we plan so the whole job is done in one go where possible. Photos with rough sizes let us arrive with everything needed.
- We inspect each washroom and record the joints to be resealed.
- The fixed quote sets out the rooms, the products and the phasing.
- The whole of the old bead is removed.
- Joints are degreased and dried.
- New anti-mould sealant goes in and is tooled neat.
- Each area is handed back when ready.
Before we start on site
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs

Advice
Nearby places to Staplers
Also in Staplers
What we’re called out for in Staplers
Decorators’ caulk and general sealants sometimes end up where sanitary silicone belongs. They aren’t made for constant wetting, and they stain, crack or wash out.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean
- Washrooms that look worn because of the sealant
- Panel joints letting water behind
- Failed sealant behind washroom basins
Hotels such as Newport Quay Hotel, 0.7 miles to the west of Staplers, have en suite bathrooms where tired silicone at the bath, tray and basin is replaced room by room.
Before you book anyone
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
- How joint depth will be controlled
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- The named product and why it was chosen
After the work
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
- Keep extract fans working and vents clear
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
- Note failing joints building by building
If a joint we sealed fails within 12 months, tell us and we will look at it. Beyond that, regular checks keep small problems small.
A few failed joints can be resealed with hardly any disruption. Left, it tends to become a building-wide job and more closures to manage.
Different surfaces, different methods
Showers and trays
A tray flexes every time it’s used and is constantly wet. Tray perimeters are a frequent source of leaks.
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
Wet-room floors and the joints where flooring turns up the wall need to stay sound. Floor perimeters and sealant joints near drains are resealed.
Busy facilities in and around Staplers
The 2 miles around Staplers include five care or nursing homes. Care home wet rooms and en suites are used every day and cleaned hard, which tells on the silicone. Work is agreed with the manager, around residents’ routines. A number of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Staplers. Hotel en suites take daily use, and tired silicone at trays and basins is one of the first things guests notice.
At a hospital like Orchard Private Hospital, which lies north of Staplers, patient and staff washrooms are best done in short phases agreed with the ward. Toilets at colleges like HTP Apprenticeship College, 0.9 miles west of Staplers, take heavy use from students and staff alike.

Why act early in Staplers
Leaving the job until a shutdown often means living with it for months. Phasing lets it happen now, with facilities kept in use. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Renewing it in good time keeps the building weathertight.
