Our process
Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. Jobs in and around smaller places like Boughton Monchelsea are normally planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- First, the phasing is agreed so facilities stay open.
- Anything behind the joints that needs another trade is flagged.
- Old sealant is stripped and the faces prepared.
- The right sanitary or food-safe sealant is applied.
- We give you a reopening time for every room.
What we need from you
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Flag any permit to work we will need
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

Advice
How we handle washroom sealing in Boughton Monchelsea
For clinics, hospitals and care homes, sealed joints matter for infection control as much as appearance. Your estates and infection-control requirements, and any permits the site uses, shape how we work. Any records you need are confirmed with the quote. We work on kitchens and tea points, urinals and WCs and accessible toilets and changing rooms, and the failures we are asked to look at most are users noticing mouldy joints and failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Boughton Monchelsea first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
In and around smaller places like Boughton Monchelsea, washroom work is often in halls, pubs, primary schools, care homes and holiday accommodation. Sealant that has gone black with mould typically can’t be cleaned, so it is cut out and replaced.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

Boughton Monchelsea: questions and answers
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Oakwood Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Can you work in a care home near Boughton Monchelsea with residents in?
Yes. We work around residents’ routines, a room or two at a time. Tell us about any infection-control or safeguarding requirements and we’ll work to them.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
Do you cover Boughton Monchelsea?
Yes. We cover Boughton Monchelsea and the rest of Kent. To discuss a job, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, with one point of contact across South East England, Greater London and Scotland.
Can you quote from photographs?
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.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over. Include photographs or drawings if you have them.
When something else is needed
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Panel boards already damaged by water
- Condensation from failed extract fans
- Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
If you are not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Kitchens and tea points
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Vanity units and basins
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Urinals and WCs
What the job involves on each surface
IPS and cubicle panels
Cubicle and IPS panels move when leaned on or knocked so the bead needs to cope with it. Loose panels are flagged before any sealant goes on.
Healthcare and care settings
Assisted bathrooms and accessible toilets get heavy use so their sealant tends to fail sooner.

Why it’s worth doing now in Boughton Monchelsea
Water gets behind panels and under floors through a failed joint. That can lead to swollen boards, marked ceilings below and lingering smells, and fixing that takes far more work than resealing. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Boughton Monchelsea, rather than one at a time. Send photos of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Looking after the joints
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Clear standing water from shower floors where possible
- Share your site rules when you send details
- Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
Ventilation is half the battle. 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.
