Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Temple Mills

In a busy washroom, the sealant normally gives up long before the tiles or fittings. Around basins, urinals, cubicles, IPS panels and shower trays it takes water, soap, cleaning chemicals and knocks every day and mould that roots into it can’t be cleaned away. We strip it out and lay new anti-mould sanitary silicone. If you have panel joints letting water behind and a new bead over an old one coming away, we can put it right. Searching for sealant specialists in Temple Mills? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.

Building managers in Temple Mills typically need some facilities open throughout. We work through washrooms floor by floor or core by core, at times agreed with you, so staff and visitors can always find an open washroom.

The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

On site: what to expect

Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them. While we’re working, the area stays contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. Planning a London job such as one in Temple Mills starts with access: booked loading, goods lifts, the building’s permit system and a spot to keep materials. Give us the hours we can be on site and we will schedule to suit.

  1. We inspect each washroom and record the joints to be resealed.
  2. You get a fixed quote with the phasing plan.
  3. The whole of the old bead is removed.
  4. Joints are degreased and dried.
  5. A sanitary silicone bead is laid and given a smooth tooled finish.
  6. Rooms reopen after the cure time.

Preparing the site

  • For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
  • Arrange parking or a loading space
  • Move anything stored against the joints

Request a quote

Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.

Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas

Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:

  • The total length or number of joints
  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation
  • How much existing material needs removing
  • Travel to remote or island sites

What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.

What we need to price the job

The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:

  • Anything awkward about access or site hours
  • The type of building and who uses it
  • The asbestos register, for older buildings
  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule

Common questions from Temple Mills clients

Could you schedule work at a campus like Loughborough University London for the vacation?

Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we will plan the work around them. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we will confirm them alongside the quote.

Do you work in occupied care homes around Temple Mills?

Yes. We work around residents’ routines, a room or two at a time. Any site rules, from signing in to infection control, are agreed before we start.

How long does a job like this take?

The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.

How long will the new sealant last?

Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.

Can you follow the specification on our project?

Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.

What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?

Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.

Can you reseal washrooms in healthcare buildings?

Yes. We work to your estates and infection-control requirements and any site permits, and phase the work so areas keep facilities.

Surface by surface

Kitchens and tea points

In commercial kitchens, smooth, cleanable joints help keep the kitchen hygienic. Where food contact is possible, we use a hygienic, food-safe sealant.

Healthcare and care settings

In healthcare, sealed joints are part of infection control. Your infection-control and estates rules are followed as well as site permits.

When it isn’t the sealant

Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:

  • Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
  • Hollow tiles or loose panels behind the joint
  • Vanity carcasses that have swollen

Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Accessible toilets and changing rooms
  • IPS panels and cubicles
  • Vanity units and basins
  • Urinals and WCs
  • Kitchens and tea points
  • Showers, trays and wet room floors

Common problems we fix in Temple Mills

Daily commercial cleaning wears sealant faster than people expect. Strong chemicals, scourers and jet washing roughen, discolour or lift a bead, and dirt and mould then get a foothold.

Common reasons buildings call us in:

  • Stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops
  • Stained sealant around pans and urinals
  • Sealant stained black around basins and showers
  • Washrooms that look worn because of the sealant

Toilets at colleges like International College of Musical Theatre (to the south-west of Temple Mills) take heavy use from students and staff alike.

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually carry out the work
  • The named product and why it was chosen
  • Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
  • How joint depth will be controlled

How to choose a sealant contractor

Looking after the joints

Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:

  • Photograph and log failed joints across the estate
  • Mention any site permits or estates rules at quote stage
  • Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently
  • Include joints in routine washroom inspections

Add washroom sealant to routine inspections. Look for black spotting, cracks, peeling edges and gaps at the busiest fittings and photograph anything new.

A few failed joints can be resealed with hardly any disruption. Left until every washroom is affected, it becomes a bigger programme and more closures to manage.
