Doing it in-house
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
How the quote is worked out
These are the things that shape the price:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- The size and state of each joint
- Any access equipment needed
- Travel to remote or island sites
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
What we need to price the job
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with what you know.
Looking after the joints
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Include joints in routine washroom inspections
- Note failing joints building by building
- Make sure washroom ventilation is running
- Respect the cure time before reopening each room
Include sealant joints in your planned maintenance checks. Look for black spotting, cracks, peeling edges and gaps at the busiest fittings and photograph anything new.
Boards behind panels and vanity tops can swell when water gets past a failed joint. Once that happens, a reseal won’t fix them.
Your questions answered
Must a hotel around Tring close while you work?
Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. Housekeeping and our team agree each day’s rooms.
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Stoke Mandeville Hospital, something you do?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Is it OK to put new silicone on top of the old?
We strip every bit of the failed bead and wipe away the residue first. It’s the difference between a joint that lasts and one that peels.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, and you deal with one contact throughout.

Central London is about 32 miles from Tring, within the office belt around the capital. Office washrooms on business parks see heavy weekday use, and resealing in phases keeps facilities available.

The work can go floor by floor, agreed with housekeeping.
Pupil toilets at schools like Bishop Wood Church of England Junior School take heavy daily use, and the holidays give the window to reseal.

Leave it or put it right?
A failed joint behind a basin or along a shower tray lets water run where it shouldn’t. That can lead to swollen boards, marked ceilings below and lingering smells, and fixing that takes far more work than resealing. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Catching it early means a reseal rather than repairs.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.

If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Tring need work too, visits can be combined. Tell us your site hours and we will plan around them.
- We agree which washrooms close and when.
- Leaks, loose panels or damp are pointed out first.
- Failed sealant and residue are stripped out.
- The right sanitary or food-safe sealant is applied.
- We confirm reopening times for each washroom.
