Why act early in Troy Town
Gaps and mould in joints give dirt and bacteria somewhere to sit which matters most in healthcare, food and education settings. Sound, smooth joints are much easier to keep clean. For buildings around smaller places like Troy Town, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
A quote for washrooms and wet areas depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Call for a quote.

How we handle washroom sealing in Troy Town
Closing all the facilities in a building isn’t an option. Work is phased by room or by section, so there are always facilities in use. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. The enquiries we see most involve failed sealant behind washroom basins and sealant lifting along a tray edge, across accessible toilets and changing rooms, showers, trays and wet room floors and vanity units and basins. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Troy Town, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Smaller places such as Troy Town still have commercial washrooms and kitchens: in halls, pubs, schools, care homes and farm-based businesses. Sealant that has gone black with mould usually can’t be cleaned, so it is cut out and replaced.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

Honest limits
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:
- Condensation from failed extract fans
- Vanity carcasses that have swollen
- Hollow tiles or loose panels behind the joint
Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.

Different surfaces, different methods
Healthcare and care settings
Assisted bathrooms and accessible toilets get heavy use so their sealant tends to fail sooner.
Basins and vanity tops
Basin joints get wet every time someone washes their hands, so the wall joint and bowl surrounds tend to fail before anything else. They are resealed with anti-mould sanitary silicone.
Keeping Troy Town washrooms open while we work
Troy Town lies roughly 21 miles out from central London. Office toilets in the commuter belt are in use from first arrivals to last departures, so we work a block of facilities at a time.
En suites at hotels like The Albion Hotel, 0.8 miles to the east of Troy Town, are cleaned daily, which wears silicone over time. For a site such as Edenbridge and District War Memorial Hospital, which lies south-east of Troy Town, sanitary joints in clinical areas need sound, cleanable sealant and a careful method.
Troy Town is about 6 miles north of East Grinstead, in Kent. Troy Town sits inside our coverage and the rest of Kent, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else.

Questions we’re asked in Troy Town
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Edenbridge and District War Memorial Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Do we have to close all our washrooms in Troy Town for resealing?
Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. We’ll tell you the curing time for the product before we start.
What will the job cost?
Each job is quoted on its own details. For yours, call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
How long does a job like this take?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work normally takes half a day to a day per washroom, depending on the number of fittings. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
Is it possible to just clean mouldy silicone?
Cleaning may lighten it, but the mould returns. We replace the sealant with an anti-mould sanitary grade and point out if ventilation is part of the problem.
Is it OK to put new silicone on top of the old?
The whole of the old bead is removed and the surfaces cleaned first. It’s the difference between a joint that lasts and one that peels.
Does the weather affect the work?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.
From enquiry to sign-off
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, with the work itself usually taking a morning or so for a small washroom, longer where showers and changing rooms are included. Smaller jobs around Troy Town can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- We survey each room, count the joints and note anything behind them that needs another trade.
- We agree which rooms close and when, so users always have somewhere to go.
- We strip out the old bead and clean off the residue left behind.
- Each joint is degreased and left dry, because silicone won’t bond to damp or soapy surfaces.
- We lay a sanitary silicone bead and tool it smooth so it is easy to clean.
- Each room is handed back once the sealant has had its cure time.

How the quote is worked out
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we look at:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Any access equipment needed
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- The postcode of the building
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
When to bring in a specialist
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
