Different surfaces, different methods

Staff kitchens and tea points have joints at worktops, sinks and splashbacks. Sound joints keep those surfaces easy to clean.
Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Wickstreet
In a commercial washroom, sealant is usually the first thing to wear out. Around basins, urinals, cubicles, IPS panels and shower trays it takes water, soap, cleaning chemicals and knocks every day and mould that roots into it can’t be cleaned away. The fix is to remove it completely and reseal with sanitary silicone containing anti-mould additives. Most enquiries involve stained sealant around pans and urinals and complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms, across showers, trays and wet room floors, accessible toilets and changing rooms and vanity units and basins. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Wickstreet it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Smaller places such as Wickstreet still have commercial washrooms and kitchens: in halls, pubs, schools, care homes and farm-based businesses. Mould gets into sealant in any washroom that doesn’t dry out, and once it’s in, the sealant is replaced.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Keeping the joints sound
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Report split joints at trays and basins early
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
- Share your site rules when you send details
- Keep extract fans working and vents clear
Any failure in our workmanship within the 12-month guarantee is ours to put right. Beyond that, regular checks keep small problems small.
Mould in a joint spreads along the bead and into nearby grout, and complaints follow. Dealing with it while it’s just the sealant keeps it simple.

Do you need washroom sealing in Wickstreet?
Much of the failed sealant we remove was applied over old silicone or residue. Silicone won’t adhere to a silicone bead, so it soon lets go.
Look out for the following:
- Resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed
- Black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift
- Kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean
- Washrooms that look worn because of the sealant
On a healthcare site such as Hellingly Hospital Railway, 3.8 miles to the north-east of Wickstreet, washroom work starts with the infection-control team’s sign-off.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Their public liability cover
- Who will actually carry out the work
What sets the cost
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Any access equipment needed
- Which sealant the job calls for
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.
Before you send an enquiry
Good information means a firmer quote. Helpful details to send:
- What the building is and how it’s used
- When you need the work done
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
A good quote starts with a clear picture: 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.
Our process
In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed before the next one starts. Jobs in and around smaller places like Wickstreet are typically planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- We agree which washrooms close and when.
- Leaks, loose panels or damp are pointed out first.
- Old sealant is stripped and the faces prepared.
- The right sanitary or food-safe sealant is applied.
- We give you a reopening time for every room.
Getting the site ready
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Move anything stored against the joints
Getting a fixed quote
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
Advice
Honest limits
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
- A room that stays damp because ventilation isn’t working
- Loose panels, vanity units or tiles, which need fixing first
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Urinals and WCs

Common questions from Wickstreet clients
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Hellingly Hospital Railway?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Is Wickstreet too small for you to travel to?
No. Places such as Wickstreet are covered as much as the big towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form. Include photos or drawings if you have them.
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. That’s what makes the new joint last.
Will you quote for a small job?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Send details for a fixed quote.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Can you reseal washrooms in healthcare buildings?
We work in clinics, hospitals and care homes. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote before we start.
