How we handle washroom sealing in Eddington

You can’t shut every toilet in an office, school or hotel at once. Work is phased by room or by section, so there are always facilities in use. Give us your site hours and access windows and the phasing is planned around them. If you have kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean and a new bead over an old one coming away, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Eddington it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.

Farm shops, cafés and venues in converted rural buildings around places like Eddington have busy toilets and kitchens. Tell us your opening times and quiet periods and we’ll plan around them.

Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

How the quote is worked out

What shapes the price:

  • Working within restricted access windows
  • How much existing material needs removing
  • How much there is to seal
  • Access and working height

What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.

Before you send an enquiry

For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:

  • Where the site is, with the postcode
  • The product your specification calls for
  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
  • Your programme or deadline

If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

General trades versus a specialist

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.

Keeping Eddington washrooms open while we work

Eddington has several hotels close by, all within 2 miles. En suite bathrooms, staff changing rooms and kitchens all need their sanitary silicone renewed in time. Eddington is about 61 miles from central London, within the office belt around the capital. Office washrooms on business parks see heavy weekday use, so we phase work to keep some facilities open.

Office washrooms on sites such as Charnham Business Park, less than half a mile to the west of Eddington, are in use all working day, so resealing is phased to keep some open. Pupil toilets at schools like Hungerford Primary School take heavy daily use, and the holidays give the window to reseal. For a hall at a building such as Hungerford Methodist Church, resealing the kitchen and toilets can be fitted between bookings.

Eddington is about 8 miles west of Newbury, in West Berkshire.

Keeping the joints sound

Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:

  • Report split joints at trays and basins early
  • Squeegee showers and trays after busy periods
  • Respect the cure time before reopening each room
  • Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently

Each room goes back into use only when the sealant has cured enough. We will tell you when the wet areas can be used, and it helps if signs stay up until then.

A few failed joints can be resealed with hardly any disruption. Left until every washroom is affected, it becomes a bigger programme and more closures to manage.

Common questions from Eddington clients

Will the toilets in our Eddington building be out of use?

Rarely all at once: work is phased so some facilities are always available. Each area is handed back once the sealant has cured enough to use.

Will our hotel in Eddington need to close for the work?

In most cases no closure is needed: we work room by room or floor by floor. Tell us your quiet periods and access windows and we’ll plan around them.

Can you quote from photos?

It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.

How long does a job like this take?

That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit usually takes a morning or so for a small washroom, longer where showers and changing rooms are included. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.

What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?

Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. 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. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.

Is it possible to just clean mouldy silicone?

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

Are your applicators CSCS-carded?

Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators.

What the job involves on each surface

Kitchens and tea points

In commercial kitchens, smooth, cleanable joints help keep the kitchen hygienic. Where food contact is possible, we use a hygienic, food-safe sealant.

Urinals and WC pans

Urinal backs, troughs and slab joints are resealed with sanitary silicone after the old bead and residue are removed.

When something else is needed

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

  • Vanity carcasses that have swollen
  • Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
  • Water from plumbing, not from a joint

Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will tell you honestly.

What we seal

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

How a job runs

Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint, ready for your sign-off. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. For work around Eddington, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.

  1. We agree which washrooms close and when.
  2. Leaks, loose panels or damp are pointed out first.
  3. Failed sealant and residue are stripped out.
  4. We reseal with the grade suited to each area.
  5. We give you a reopening time for every room.

Getting the site ready

  • Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
  • Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
  • Confirm the product named in the specification
