Quoting for work in West Dulwich
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- How much there is to seal
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Any access equipment needed
A quote for washrooms and wet areas depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you’re working to. Ask us for a fixed quote.
Details that help us quote
A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- The postcode of the building
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
Need a figure for a tender or a budget? Send the scope and any drawings, and we will return a fixed quote you can plan around. For a chat about it beforehand, phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
Washroom sealing in West Dulwich, done properly
In a commercial washroom, sealant is normally the first thing to wear out. Basin tops, urinal backs, panel joints and shower trays put it under water, chemicals and daily cleaning, and once mould grows into it, it can’t be scrubbed out. We strip it out and lay new anti-mould sanitary silicone. If you are dealing with split or peeling sealant at shower trays and black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift, we can help, whatever the surface. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in West Dulwich tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Washrooms in London offices, hotels and gyms are used hard from morning to evening. Mouldy or split sealant at vanity tops, IPS panels and urinals is replaced with anti-mould sanitary silicone, in phases so some facilities stay open.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Looking after the joints
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Keep a record of which washrooms need attention
- Act on the first split you see at a shower tray
- Report faulty extraction promptly
- Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone
Mild cleaning products and non-abrasive cloths look after sanitary silicone best. Strong acids, solvents and scourers wear the surface over time.
Small numbers of failed joints are quick to phase in. Left until every washroom is affected, it becomes a bigger programme and more closures to manage.
Owners, agents and contractors
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. We are fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
Busy facilities in and around West Dulwich
Four care or nursing homes sit less than 2 miles from West Dulwich. In care settings, wet rooms, assisted bathrooms and en suites rely on clean, sound sealant. Rooms are done a few at a time at times agreed with the home. A London building with hundreds of occupants can’t lose every washroom for a day, which is why the work is split into phases agreed in advance.
Student showers at universities like King's College London, 2.5 miles north of West Dulwich, see more use than most, and their silicone shows it.

Units at estates like Hamilton Road Industrial Estate (less than half a mile south-west of West Dulwich) have welfare blocks whose showers and toilets see shift after shift.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
When something else is needed
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We’ll tell you if the real problem is any of the following:
- A dripping waste or valve behind a panel
- Swollen or delaminated boards behind panels or vanity tops
- Hollow tiles or loose panels behind the joint
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

From enquiry to sign-off
Site rules come first: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. With the paperwork done, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you, and each area is checked before we leave it. In West Dulwich, most buildings stay in use during the work, so zones and timings are agreed with whoever manages the building. Phased work keeps the rest of the building in use.
- Every washroom is checked joint by joint, with loose panels, leaks or damp noted for the right trade.
- A phasing plan keeps part of the building’s facilities in use at all times.
- The failed silicone is stripped and every face scraped clean of residue.
- 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.
- Rooms reopen after the product’s cure time, and we move to the next.
Preparing the site
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Point out parking and an unloading spot

Questions we are asked in West Dulwich
Can work in a care setting near West Dulwich go ahead while residents are there?
Yes, with the manager deciding the order and timing of rooms. Any site rules, from signing in to infection control, are agreed before we start.
Will our hotel in West Dulwich need to close for the work?
Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.
Do you work in West Dulwich?
Yes. West Dulwich falls within our area, and you can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form to get started.
Do you guarantee washroom sealing?
Every job carries our 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship rather than damage, leaks from plumbing or ventilation problems.
Do you use special sealant for toilets and showers?
It depends on the joint. Washrooms and showers take anti-mould sanitary silicone while kitchens may need a food-safe grade.
