When to call us in Digswell

Sometimes the sealant fails because something behind it is moving or wet: a loose panel, a leaking waste or water coming through the wall. We look for it before resealing and tell you if another trade is needed.

Most enquiries start with something like this:

  • Panel joints letting water behind
  • Washrooms that look worn because of the sealant
  • Gaps where vanity tops meet the wall
  • Sealant stained black around basins and showers

At a university such as University of Hertfordshire (4 miles south of Digswell), summer is the usual window for resealing residence bathrooms.

What to look for in a quote

  • What site paperwork they can supply
  • Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
  • Who will actually carry out the work
  • How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?

Choosing a commercial sealant contractor

Diagnose, treat, sign off

When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, with the work itself usually taking half a day to a day per washroom, depending on the number of fittings. Work in places the size of Digswell is planned as a single visit where we can. Photos with rough sizes let us arrive with everything needed.

  1. We agree which washrooms close and when.
  2. Anything behind the joints that needs another trade is flagged.
  3. Failed sealant and residue are stripped out.
  4. The right sanitary or food-safe sealant is applied.
  5. We give you a reopening time for every room.

Preparing the site

  • Warn occupants and staff about the work
  • Let us know about inductions and permits
  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Should maintenance staff do it?

Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.

There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

Toilets, showers and kitchens around Digswell

Digswell has a number of hotels close by, all within 2 miles. En suite bathrooms, staff changing rooms and kitchens all need their sanitary silicone renewed in time. We work a handful of rooms at a time, so the hotel keeps letting the rest. Digswell has two care or nursing homes no more than 2 miles away. Assisted bathrooms and wet rooms in care settings need sanitary sealant that stays cleanable. Each room is kept out of use only as long as the sealant needs.

Toilets at places like Howard Centre (to the south of Digswell) are cleaned constantly, so silicone needs to be sound and smooth. On an industrial estate such as Little Ridge Industrial Estate (1.6 miles south-east of Digswell), staff toilets, showers and canteens are where sanitary sealant takes the most wear.

Digswell is about 1 mile north of Welwyn Garden City, in Hertfordshire.

Digswell: questions and answers

Can you work around term dates at a campus such as University of Hertfordshire?

Yes. Education sites usually want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.

Does a hotel in Digswell need to shut while its sealant is renewed?

In most cases no closure is needed: we work room by room or floor by floor. Housekeeping and our team agree each day’s rooms.

What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?

Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.

Can you send site paperwork?

Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm them with the quote.

Do you take on small jobs?

Whatever the size, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.

Is Digswell in your area?

Yes. Sites across Digswell are covered, and the same phone number covers every area.

Can you handle several sites?

Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, with each site phased to suit its occupants.

What sets the cost

Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:

  • Which sealant the job calls for
  • The total length or number of joints
  • How much existing material needs removing
  • Distance, for remote addresses

The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Details that help us quote

We can often quote from photos and a few details. Please tell us:

  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
  • Whether an asbestos survey exists
  • Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
  • Anything awkward about access or site hours

Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. The first step is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us with what you know.

Why act early in Digswell

Washrooms shape how visitors judge a building. Visitors notice black sealant even when the room is otherwise spotless. Fresh sanitary silicone lifts a room with very little disruption. Over time, UV, weather and movement wear any sealant out. Replacing it before it fails keeps water out.

No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Why appoint us

  • Fully insured, including public liability cover
  • A Constructionline member, so easy to vet
  • Matching to RAL references, product permitting
  • Colours confirmed for the specified product

Read what affects the cost and how we’re accredited.

Honest limits

Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It isn’t the answer for:

  • Leaks through tanking or membranes below the finishes
  • Water from plumbing, not from a joint
  • Fittings that move too much to hold a bead

If you are not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we seal

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