Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
How we handle washroom sealing in West Malling
Washroom joints need the right sealant, not whatever is to hand. Sanitary grades carry anti-mould additives, and neutral-cure versions avoid the damage acetoxy types can do to some metals, stone and mirror backings. In food areas, hygienic or food-safe sealants are used where food contact is possible. If you’re dealing with kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean and shower tray joints that have opened up, we can put it right. For commercial sealant work in West Malling, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.
Pub and restaurant kitchens around smaller places like West Malling work hard on their joints. Sealed joints at sinks, worktops and splashbacks help keep the kitchen cleanable.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

Doing it in-house
Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
Quoting for work in West Malling
Before we quote, we look at:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- How much there is to seal
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you are ready.
What to include in your enquiry
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- Specification clauses that apply
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Access details, including height
- The type of building and who uses it
Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
Keeping West Malling washrooms open while we work
The area within 2 miles of West Malling holds a number of hotels. Each has en suites, back-of-house toilets and kitchens with sealant that moulds and splits. Rooms are done in turn so most stay available. At about 26 miles from central London, West Malling is within reach of the capital, within the office belt around the capital. Business park offices have washrooms in daily use by staff, which is why the work is phased.

Well-known places in the area include Coldrum Long Barrow (2.3 miles north-west) and Leybourne Castle (1.1 miles north-east). Green spaces nearby include Burham Down and Blue Bell Hill.
After the work
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently
- Include joints in routine washroom inspections
- Share your site rules when you send details
- Respect the cure time before reopening each room
Mild cleaning products and non-abrasive cloths look after sanitary silicone best. Aggressive descalers, solvents and scouring pads shorten its life over time.
A few failed joints can be resealed with hardly any disruption. Left, it tends to become a building-wide job with more phasing to plan.
FAQs: West Malling
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University for the Creative Arts - Maidstone?
Yes. Education sites usually want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Is West Malling too far out for you?
No. Places such as West Malling are covered as much as the big towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we will confirm it when we quote.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
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.
Do you take on small jobs?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
How much does the work cost?
That depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a quote and we will price it properly.

What the job involves on each surface
IPS and cubicle panels
A panel that has already swollen won’t be fixed by sealant and we will point out any we see.
Urinals and WC pans
The joint between a pan and the floor is easy to overlook. They are checked with everything else.
When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Vanity carcasses that have swollen
- Hollow tiles or loose panels behind the joint
- A room that stays damp because ventilation isn’t working
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
