Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Wood Street Village
Not every silicone belongs in a washroom. Sanitary silicone contains additives that resist mould, and neutral-cure types are used where acetoxy silicone could attack some metals, stone or mirror backings. In food areas, hygienic or food-safe sealants are used where food contact is possible. We work on IPS panels and cubicles, urinals and WCs and showers, trays and wet room floors, and what we’re called in for most is open joints along basins and vanity units and sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Wood Street Village tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Community buildings around smaller places like Wood Street Village have kitchens and toilets used by many people. Resealing sinks, worktops and WCs with anti-mould silicone keeps them clean and watertight.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

When to bring in a specialist
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Keeping the joints sound
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
- Inspect washroom sealant regularly
- Share your site rules when you send details
- Keep washrooms out of use until we say the sealant has cured
Mild cleaning products and non-abrasive cloths look after sanitary silicone best. Strong acids, solvents and scourers wear the surface over time.
A split joint at a shower tray can leak for a long time before anyone sees it. At that stage, boards or ceilings may need repair, so reseal when you first spot a split.
Why deal with it now?
Open or mouldy joints are hard to keep hygienic which matters most in healthcare, food and education settings. Sound, smooth joints are much easier to keep clean. Older rural buildings around Wood Street Village move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote when you are ready.

What the job involves on each surface
Basins and vanity tops
Vanity tops and basins are splashed all day, so the joint to the wall and around each bowl fails early. They are resealed with anti-mould sanitary silicone.
Urinals and WC pans
Joints around urinals and WC pans take splashes, cleaning chemicals and knocks. Once they discolour or split, they hold odours and look unhygienic.
Questions about Wood Street Village
Can you work on a hospital site such as Royal Surrey County Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University of Surrey - Manor Park Campus?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Do you cover Wood Street Village?
Yes. Wood Street Village is in our area, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. To discuss a job, phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
Will you come and look before quoting?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photos, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Is it OK to put new silicone on top of the old?
The failed bead is always removed. Fresh silicone can’t key to an old bead, so sealing over it soon peels.
Will all the toilets be closed at once?
Only the area we’re working in is closed. Each room reopens after the sealant’s cure time and we start the next.
What will the job cost?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
What sealant work can’t fix
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We will tell you if the real problem is one of these:
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
- Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
If you are not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will give you a straight answer.

Our process
On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself typically taking half a day to a day per washroom, depending on the number of fittings. Jobs in and around smaller places like Wood Street Village are typically planned as a single visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- 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.
- Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
- We clean and dry every surface so the new sealant can grip.
- New sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives goes in and is tooled neat.
- Rooms reopen after the product’s cure time, and we move to the next.
Before we start on site
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
