Washroom sealing in Wickham Common, done properly
Black spotting along a sealant bead is not a cleaning problem. The mould has rooted into the silicone itself so it returns whatever the cleaning regime. Only replacement gets rid of it for good. If you have kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean and washrooms that look worn because of the sealant, we can put it right. Most enquiries from Wickham Common start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Community buildings around smaller places like Wickham Common have kitchens and toilets used by many people. Resealing sinks, worktops and WCs with anti-mould silicone keeps them clean and watertight.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Do you need washroom sealing in Wickham Common?
Sometimes the sealant fails because something behind it is moving or wet: loose fixings, a dripping trap or damp in the wall. We check for that first and tell you if another trade is needed.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Open joints at the base of cubicle panels
- Mould spotting along silicone joints
- Urinal joints that look unhygienic
- Kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean
Where you’re responsible for a hall attached to a building such as Church of St Nicholas, its kitchen and toilets need sealant that stays cleanable.

When to bring in a specialist
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.

After the work
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Tell us about infection-control or permit rules before we quote
- Keep washrooms out of use until we say the sealant has cured
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
- Report split joints at trays and basins early
Ask your cleaning team to use gentle products and soft cloths on sealant. Strong acids, solvents and scourers wear the surface and give mould a start.
Small numbers of failed joints are quick to phase in. Left, it tends to become a building-wide job and more closures to manage.
What sets the cost
To price the job, we consider:
- Working within restricted access windows
- How much existing material needs removing
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.
Details that help us quote
Good information means a firmer quote. Helpful details to send:
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Any dates the work must fit around
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

Questions we are asked in Wickham Common
Is Wickham Common too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Must every washroom in our Wickham Common building shut while you work?
Rarely all at once: work is phased so some facilities are always available. We’ll tell you the curing time for the product before we start.
Does the weather affect the work?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Is there a guarantee on the work?
Our workmanship has a 12-month guarantee, and we carry public liability insurance.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, tell us and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Is colour matching possible?
That depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
