When to call us in Cold Christmas

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

Typical triggers for a call:

  • Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
  • Users noticing mouldy joints
  • Resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed
  • Kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean

For a hotel such as The Feathers Hotel, 1 mile to the north-west of Cold Christmas, resealing en suites a few rooms at a time keeps the rest available.

Before you book anyone

  • Proof of insurance
  • Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
  • How they handle RAMS and site documents
  • Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?

For managing agents and facilities managers

Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.

Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients book us directly too. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.

When to bring in a specialist

What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.

Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.

How the quote is worked out

A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:

  • Location, for remote and island sites
  • The size and state of each joint
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • How much existing material needs removing

Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote.

Sending details for a quote

It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:

  • Any dates the work must fit around
  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
  • How the joints are reached, and at what height
  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule

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, photos and a description will do.

How a job runs

Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. If others near Cold Christmas need work, visits can be combined. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.

  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. A bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone goes in and is tooled to a smooth, cleanable profile.
  6. You get a reopening time for every room, with signage left up until then.

Before we start on site

  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot

Quotes

Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

Advice

Why deal with it now?

Open or mouldy joints are hard to keep hygienic, and in kitchens, clinics and schools that is a real concern. Sound, smooth joints are much easier to keep clean. Halls, stores and units around places like Cold Christmas may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Resealing early avoids that.

A quote for washrooms and wet areas depends on quantities, condition and access, plus any specification you’re working to. Call for a quote.

Busy facilities in and around Cold Christmas

A 2-mile radius around Cold Christmas takes in 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. At about 23 miles from central London, Cold Christmas is within reach of the capital, within the office belt around the capital. Business park offices have washrooms in daily use by staff, and resealing in phases keeps facilities available.

Church halls and community buildings, such as those at Parish Church of St Mary, have kitchens and toilets used by many groups, and their sanitary sealant works hard. Office washrooms on sites such as Thundridge Business Park (1 mile west of Cold Christmas) are in use all working day, so resealing is phased to keep some open.

Your questions answered

Is Cold Christmas off your patch?

No. Places such as Cold Christmas are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Can work at a site such as Hertford College: Ware Campus fit around teaching?

Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we’ll plan the work around them. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.

Can washrooms stay open while you work?

Only the area we’re working in is closed. Rooms go back into use once the sealant has cured, then we move on.

Is there a guarantee on the work?

A 12-month guarantee covers the work. It applies to our workmanship, not to plumbing leaks or damp from poor ventilation.

What’s the quickest route to a quote?

It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. The first step only needs photos and a postcode.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.

Is it possible to just clean mouldy silicone?

Not for long. The mould is inside the silicone so cleaning only lightens it for a while. Replacement is the lasting fix.
