Quoting for work in Chiddingstone Hoath
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Which sealant the job calls for
- The site’s rules and procedures
- The size and state of each joint
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
Sending details for a quote
To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Your programme or deadline
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
The quickest route to a quote is a few photos and the site postcode. Send them through the quote form, or speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form to discuss it first.
How we handle washroom sealing in Chiddingstone Hoath
Accessible WCs, showers and changing areas have their own pinch points: shower trays, wet-room floor edges, basins and floor-to-wall junctions. An open joint there lets water track under flooring or behind wall panels, so we look at them closely. The enquiries we see most involve resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed and kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean, across urinals and WCs, kitchens and tea points and IPS panels and cubicles. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Chiddingstone Hoath it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Rural businesses near smaller places such as Chiddingstone Hoath, from cafés to event venues, rely on washrooms and kitchens that stay clean. We plan the work around bookings and opening times.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

How the job changes by surface
Changing rooms and gyms
Showers, floor edges and vanity units in changing rooms all need sound sealant and we look at them as one job.
Healthcare and care settings
Accessible and assisted washrooms are used and cleaned intensively so their sealant tends to fail sooner.
Common problems we fix in Chiddingstone Hoath
Much of the failed sealant we remove was applied over old silicone or residue. New silicone won’t grip the old so it peels away quickly.
Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:
- Open joints along basins and vanity units
- Discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans
- Resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed
- Complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms
Staff changing rooms and patient toilets at places like Kent and Sussex Hospital (to the east of Chiddingstone Hoath) need cleanable, sound silicone.

Maintenance after handover
After handover, these steps help:
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
- Share your site rules when you send details
- Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone
- Note failing joints building by building
Squeegeeing showers and trays after heavy use helps. Standing water on a joint all day shortens its life.
A split joint at a shower tray can leak for a long time before anyone sees it. By then, other trades may be needed as well so failed joints are worth acting on quickly.

Your questions answered
Is Chiddingstone Hoath too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Could you schedule work at a campus like Canterbury Christ Church University - Salomons for the vacation?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
How long does a typical visit take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. You will have an expected duration with the quote.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
Can weather delay the job?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Internal work is rarely affected.
Is old silicone taken out first?
We strip every bit of the failed bead and wipe away the residue before resealing. That’s what makes the new joint last.
What sealant work can’t fix
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Loose panels, vanity units or tiles, which need fixing first
- Failed tanking beneath a wet-room floor or behind tiles
- Panel boards already damaged by water
If you’re not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer.
