Washroom sealing in Tilbury
Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Looking after the joints
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Share your site rules when you send details
- Clear standing water from shower floors where possible
- Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone
- Report faulty extraction promptly
We hand each area back once the silicone has had the cure time the product needs. You’ll be told when showers and basins can be used again, and it helps if signs stay up until then.
Boards behind panels and vanity tops can swell when water gets past a failed joint. Once that happens, a reseal won’t fix them.

Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we look at:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Distance, for remote addresses
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
What to include in your enquiry
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- Your programme or deadline
- Access details, including height
- Any specification or named product
- The site address and postcode
A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.
On site: what to expect
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Work in places the size of Tilbury is planned as a single visit where we can. Photos with rough sizes let us arrive with everything needed.
- We inspect each washroom and record the joints to be resealed.
- You get a fixed quote with the phasing plan.
- Old sealant is removed completely and the faces cleaned.
- Joints are degreased and dried.
- A sanitary silicone bead is laid and given a smooth tooled finish.
- Rooms reopen after the cure time.
Before we start on site
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To start the process, call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

Tilbury: questions and answers
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Gravesham Community Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Could you schedule work at a campus like University of Greenwich for the vacation?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Do you guarantee washroom sealing?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we carry public liability insurance.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, drawings or a joint schedule. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit.
Do you work in hospitals, clinics and care homes?
Yes, healthcare and care settings are part of our work. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote before we start.
How soon can a washroom be used after resealing?
The silicone needs time to cure before water reaches it. We plan the phasing around that so there are always rooms open.
How do you choose the sealant?
The specification comes first, if there is one. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.

When to call us in Tilbury
A lot of failed washroom sealant was laid over an old bead or a dirty surface. Silicone won’t adhere to a silicone bead, so it soon lets go.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Urinal joints that look unhygienic
- Sealant lifting along a tray edge
- Resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed
- Black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift
In a centre such as Imperial Retail Park, 1.4 miles south of Tilbury, public washrooms are resealed a block of facilities at a time.
Questions to ask before you book
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
