How we handle washroom sealing in Addington

In a commercial washroom, sealant is typically the first thing to wear out. Basin tops, urinal backs, panel joints and shower trays put it under water, chemicals and daily cleaning 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. If you have sealant stained black around basins and showers and resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed, we can help. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Addington? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

Smaller places such as Addington still have commercial washrooms and kitchens: in halls, pubs, schools, care homes and farm-based businesses. Sealant that has gone black with mould typically can’t be cleaned, so it is cut out and replaced.

Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Addington as everywhere else we work. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Addington: questions and answers

Is Addington too far out for you?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Maidstone Hospital?

Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.

Is it possible to just clean mouldy silicone?

Cleaning may lighten it, but the mould returns. We replace the sealant with an anti-mould sanitary grade and point out if ventilation is part of the problem.

Is old silicone taken out first?

The failed bead is always removed. Fresh silicone can’t key to an old bead so a bead over the top fails quickly.

Do you take on multi-site work?

Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and any queries are raised before we start.

What about RAMS and site documents?

Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.

Busy facilities in and around Addington

The area within 2 miles of Addington holds a number of hotels. Each has en suites, back-of-house toilets and kitchens with sealant that moulds and splits. We work a handful of rooms at a time, so the hotel keeps letting the rest. Central London is about 25 miles from Addington. Business park offices have washrooms in daily use by staff, and resealing in phases keeps facilities available.

En suites at hotels like Bear Hotel, 1.4 miles to the south-east of Addington, are cleaned daily, which wears silicone over time. Pupil toilets at schools like Offham Primary School take heavy daily use, and the holidays give the window to reseal.

Addington is about 7 miles north-west of Maidstone, in Kent. We send applicators to Addington for washrooms and wet areas, handled exactly as we handle every other area. Addington is one of 931 places we cover in Kent for washrooms and wet areas. Our London page has more on work in that area.

From enquiry to sign-off

The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. For a building around Addington, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.

  1. We start by inspecting the fittings and joints and flagging problems sealant can’t solve.
  2. A phasing plan keeps part of the building’s facilities in use at all times.
  3. We strip out the old bead and clean off the residue left behind.
  4. Each joint is degreased and left dry, because silicone won’t bond to damp or soapy surfaces.
  5. New sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives goes in and is tooled neat.
  6. Each room is handed back once the sealant has had its cure time.

What we need from you

  • Make sure the joints can be reached
  • Let building users know which areas are affected
  • Agree which areas must stay open

Advice

When to call us in Addington

Warmth, moisture and soap residue are exactly what mould needs, and sealant joints trap all three. Anti-mould additives help, but in a poorly ventilated room mould can still take hold eventually.

Typical triggers for a call:

  • Kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean
  • Mould spotting along silicone joints
  • Complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms
  • Shower tray joints that have opened up

Halls linked to places like Church of St Margaret host groups all week, which is hard on kitchen and toilet sealant.

Comparing quotes

  • Proof of insurance
  • Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
  • The named product and why it was chosen
  • The terms of the workmanship guarantee

Choosing a commercial sealant contractor

For managing agents and facilities managers

When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.

Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.

Surface by surface

Healthcare and care settings

We phase washroom sealing so care areas are never left without facilities. Records you need can be confirmed with the quote.

Basins and vanity tops

Stone and some composite tops need a neutral-cure sealant, so the product is chosen to suit.

When it isn’t the sealant

Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:

  • Hollow tiles or loose panels behind the joint
  • Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
  • Swollen or delaminated boards behind panels or vanity tops

Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we seal

  • IPS panels and cubicles
  • Urinals and WCs
  • Showers, trays and wet room floors
  • Kitchens and tea points
  • Vanity units and basins
  • Accessible toilets and changing rooms

Maintenance after handover

Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:

  • Photograph and log failed joints across the estate
  • Report faulty extraction promptly
  • Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
  • Respect the cure time before reopening each room

Mild cleaning products and non-abrasive cloths look after sanitary silicone best. Aggressive descalers, solvents and scouring pads shorten its life over time.

Boards behind panels and vanity tops can swell when water gets past a failed joint. Once that happens, a reseal won’t fix them.
