Common questions in Fratton
Will you come out to Fratton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you work in hotels near Fratton?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Is it messy?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
How soon can a room be used after resealing?
Follow the cure time we give you, which is usually around 24 hours. Planning the order of rooms keeps that downtime manageable.
What does commercial sealant cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing and where.
Where do you work from?
We’re based in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we’ll agree it with you first.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.

Why deal with it now?
Guests and staff judge a building by its bathrooms. Mouldy silicone looks unhygienic, however hard housekeeping work, and cleaning rarely puts it right. New sealant does. Around Fratton, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.
Why us?
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- We never seal over old sealant
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- 12-month guarantee on every job
Other services in Fratton
DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What we are called out for in Fratton
Wet rooms and accessible showers are designed for the whole floor to get wet, so floor-to-wall joints take standing water. A failed joint there can soon let water into the floor or walls.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Tired sealant ahead of a health and safety audit
- Mouldy bathrooms flagged at a tenancy check
- Too many rooms to reseal without closing the building
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and stained
For buildings such as St Mary's Church, halls and community kitchens see heavy use, and their sealant shows it.
What your quote should include
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- Whether VAT is included
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
How the job changes by surface
Retail & leisure sites
Gym and leisure changing rooms take heavy use and plenty of water, so joints are sealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Welfare facilities
Shower rooms in welfare blocks get heavy use and need sound joints. Anti-fungal sanitary silicone is used throughout, including accessible wet rooms.
When something else is needed
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Water damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler or builder
- Certifying fire stopping or building compliance
- A shower tray, bath or basin that is cracked or broken
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before you book.

How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of rooms and we leave things clean and tidy. A visit to Fratton is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start by looking at the rooms and agreeing what’s needed.
- Working hours are agreed, including early starts or out-of-hours work where it can be arranged.
- Each area is protected and stripped of old sealant.
- Once dry, every joint is resealed and tooled.
- We let your team know the cure time for every area.
How to prepare
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any tricky access

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Report broken fans quickly
- Keep strong chemicals and scourers off the joints
- Log resealing so you know what’s due
- Add sealant to your planned maintenance checks
We give a cure time for every area we finish, usually around 24 hours. Make sure housekeeping or cleaning staff know it so nobody showers or cleans the joint too early.
Planned resealing is easier to manage than emergency repairs. Rooms can be scheduled around occupancy and staff, rather than closed at short notice.
