About our washroom sealing in Witney
When mould has spotted a silicone joint, more cleaning won’t remove it. The mould has rooted into the silicone itself so it returns whatever the cleaning regime. Replacing the bead is the lasting treatment. We work on IPS panels and cubicles, kitchens and tea points and accessible toilets and changing rooms, and what we are called in for most is washrooms that look worn because of the sealant and open joints at the base of cubicle panels. Most enquiries from Witney start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
For schools in a town such as Witney, term dates decide when the toilets and changing rooms can be resealed, while offices and care homes need phased work. Give us the dates and times that suit and we’ll plan the work to fit.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Surface by surface
Urinals and WC pans
Pan and urinal joints face constant cleaning and splashing. Stained or split joints here trap smells and look unhygienic.
IPS and cubicle panels
Panels flex slightly in use so the bead needs to cope with it. We check fixings before sealing.
Maintenance after handover
Once the work is signed off, these steps help:
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
- Mention any site permits or estates rules at quote stage
- Clean sealant with gentle products and a soft cloth
- Act on the first split you see at a shower tray
Keep extract fans working and vents clear. A room that stays damp will grow mould on almost anything so report fans that aren’t working to your building services team.
Inspectors look at whether kitchen surfaces can be kept clean. Failed sealant around sinks and worktops is easy to put right in good time.
Leave it or put it right?
Running fresh silicone along a failed bead hides the problem briefly. It doesn’t bond, so it peels and traps dirt behind it. Cutting out completely and cleaning back takes a little longer and lasts. In a town such as Witney, a lot of buildings are older and have been altered over time, so joints between old and new are often the first to go. Renewing them before water gets in protects the fabric.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.

Witney: questions and answers
Will you work in a care home in Witney without moving residents out?
Yes. We work around residents’ routines, a room or two at a time. Any site rules, from signing in to infection control, are agreed before we start.
Will our hotel in Witney need to close for the work?
Almost never. The work is phased so most rooms stay available. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, which many sites require.
Do you take on small jobs?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
How long do sealant joints last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
Will cleaning remove black mould from sealant?
Surface cleaning won’t reach mould that has rooted into the bead. We replace the sealant with an anti-mould sanitary grade and check the ventilation isn’t the cause.
Wet areas in Witney’s workplaces
Witney is about 63 miles from central London, within the office belt around the capital. Business park offices have washrooms in daily use by staff, so we phase work to keep some facilities open. Witney has two care or nursing homes no more than 2 miles away. Care home wet rooms and en suites are used every day and cleaned hard, which tells on the silicone. Rooms are done a few at a time at times agreed with the home.
En suites at hotels like Red Lion Hotel (less than half a mile south-east of Witney) are cleaned daily, which wears silicone over time. At a college such as Abingdon & Witney College: Witney Campus, under half a mile south-east of Witney, washroom and kitchen sealant is best renewed in the holidays or in phases during term. On a healthcare site such as Witney Community Hospital, under half a mile east of Witney, washroom work starts with the infection-control team’s sign-off.
