About our washroom sealing in Woodford Wells
When mould has spotted a silicone joint, more cleaning won’t remove it. The growth is inside the sealant so it returns whatever the cleaning regime. Only replacement gets rid of it for good. Most enquiries involve sealant lifting along a tray edge and complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms, across accessible toilets and changing rooms, IPS panels and cubicles and showers, trays and wet room floors. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Woodford Wells? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Washrooms in London offices, hotels and gyms are used hard from morning to evening. Mouldy or split sealant at vanity tops, IPS panels and urinals is replaced with anti-mould sanitary silicone, in phases so some facilities stay open.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

On site: what to expect
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. We sign and contain the area we are in, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Planning a London job such as one in Woodford Wells starts with access. Give us the hours we can be on site and we will schedule to suit.
- We agree which washrooms close and when.
- Anything behind the joints that needs another trade is flagged.
- Old sealant is stripped and the faces prepared.
- We reseal with the grade suited to each area.
- We give you a reopening time for every room.
What we need from you
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
Request a quote
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
Advice
Building owners, agents and FMs in Woodford Wells
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, clear figures and clear communication matter. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.
What we can’t put right
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
- Loose panels, vanity units or tiles, which need fixing first
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think.
Where we work in Woodford Wells
- Kitchens and tea points
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Vanity units and basins
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Urinals and WCs
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
Keeping the joints sound
After handover, these steps help:
- Inspect washroom sealant regularly
- Note failing joints building by building
- Clear standing water from shower floors where possible
- Report split joints at trays and basins early
Ventilation is half the battle. A room that stays damp will grow mould on almost anything, so get faulty extract looked at.
Boards behind panels and vanity tops can swell when water gets past a failed joint. Once that happens, a reseal won’t fix them.
Common questions from Woodford Wells clients
Would you work within a site like The Holly Private Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University of Portsmouth Walthamstow Campus?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we will confirm them alongside the quote.
Is it OK to put new silicone on top of the old?
The failed bead is always removed. New silicone won’t stick to the old so a bead over the top fails quickly.
Which sealant will you use?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
What do you charge?
Each job is quoted on its own details. For yours, ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with a description of the work.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
In many cases, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Will all the toilets be closed at once?
We phase it so users always have somewhere to go. We work through the building a room or section at a time. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
Different surfaces, different methods
IPS and cubicle panels
A panel that has already swollen won’t be fixed by sealant, and any we come across will be pointed out.
Healthcare and care settings
Accessible and assisted washrooms are used and cleaned intensively so their sealant tends to fail sooner.
Toilets, showers and kitchens around Woodford Wells

The work can go floor by floor, agreed with housekeeping. Woodford Wells has 10 care or nursing homes no more than 2 miles away. In a care setting, a mouldy or lifting joint in a wet room is a hygiene issue as much as a cosmetic one. Rooms are done a few at a time at times agreed with the home.
Customer toilets in retail centres such as Cork Tree Retail Park, 2.8 miles to the west of Woodford Wells, rarely close, so resealing is phased.
