Washroom sealing for businesses in Felpham

Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.

How the quote is worked out

A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:

  • The total length or number of joints
  • Site requirements such as inductions and permits
  • Removal of failed or old sealant
  • Joint width, depth and condition

Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote and we will explain how it’s made up.

Sending details for a quote

The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:

  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area
  • Your programme or deadline
  • The type of building and who uses it
  • Access details, including height

Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To start the process, phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over.

Washroom sealing in Felpham

We reseal washrooms and wet areas in offices, hotels, schools, universities, gyms, healthcare buildings and care homes, plus the kitchens and tea points that go with them. Product and method follow how hard each area is used and cleaned. The enquiries we see most involve discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans and shower tray joints that have opened up, on kitchens and tea points, vanity units and basins and showers, trays and wet room floors. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Felpham, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.

In a smaller place such as Felpham, commercial washrooms tend to be in schools, pubs, cafés, surgeries, care homes and sports clubs. However small, each needs the old sealant removed completely and anti-mould sanitary silicone applied to clean, dry joints.

The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Why deal with it now?

Open or mouldy joints are hard to keep hygienic which matters most in healthcare, food and education settings. A smooth, sealed joint can be cleaned properly. Small buildings around Felpham suffer from failed joints as much as large ones. Catching it early means a reseal rather than repairs.

There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote.

Why appoint us

  • CSCS-carded applicators
  • Work to your specification and the manufacturer’s guidance
  • Colours confirmed for the specified product
  • Health and safety: CHAS accredited

Read what affects the cost or our accreditations and insurance.

Do you need washroom sealing in Felpham?

Cubicle panels, IPS panels and vanity units flex when people lean on them or doors are slammed, and shower trays shift under foot. If the joint wasn’t laid to take that movement, it tears or peels away.

Look out for the following:

  • Panel joints letting water behind
  • Failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen
  • Failed sealant behind washroom basins
  • Mould spotting along silicone joints

Where you are responsible for a hall attached to a building such as Church of St Mary, its kitchen and toilets need sealant that stays cleanable.

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually carry out the work
  • Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
  • Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
  • Will RAMS and insurance details be available?

Choosing a commercial sealant contractor

FAQs: Felpham

Is Felpham too far out for you?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital?

Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.

How long before the toilets can reopen?

Cure times vary by product and temperature. You will get a reopening time for each area before we leave it.

Who decides which product is used?

Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.

Will all the toilets be closed at once?

The work is phased so users always have somewhere to go. One washroom, one bank of cubicles or one changing room is done at a time. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.

Do you hold CHAS accreditation?

Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.

What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?

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 work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.

Work for main contractors and building owners

Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.

We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Felpham can form part of a wider programme.

Wet areas in Felpham’s workplaces

The sea is no more than about 1 mile from Felpham, and coastal hotels, guest houses and holiday sites tend to fill up in the busy months. Bathrooms turned round daily in the busy months need sound, cleanable joints, so resealing in the quieter months keeps rooms ready. Felpham is about 55 miles from central London. Office toilets in the commuter belt are in use from first arrivals to last departures, and resealing in phases keeps facilities available.

Clinical washrooms at sites like Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital (0.9 miles west of Felpham) are scheduled with the ward so the room is out of use for as little time as possible. Hotels such as Ocean Hotel, under half a mile to the south-west of Felpham, have en suite bathrooms where tired silicone at the bath, tray and basin is replaced room by room.

Felpham is about 1 mile east of Bognor Regis, in West Sussex. Felpham sits inside our coverage and the rest of West Sussex, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. We work across 373 places in West Sussex. There’s a separate page for Portsmouth, about 19 miles away.

Postcode districts covered here: PO22 and PO21. If your site is on Sea Road, Ley Road and Limmer Lane or close by, send details and we will quote for washrooms and wet areas. Nearby places we also cover include South Bersted (1 mile west), Flansham (1 mile north-east), Bognor Regis (1 mile west), Middleton-on-Sea (2 miles east) and Shripney (2 miles north-west). Nearby towns on our patch include Worthing (11 miles east), Chichester (6 miles north-west), Selsey (7 miles south-west), Littlehampton (6 miles east), Lancing (15 miles east) and Rustington (7 miles east).

Should maintenance staff do it?

For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.

Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.

Our process

On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself normally taking a morning or so for a small washroom, longer where showers and changing rooms are included. For a job in Felpham, the main thing is a clear picture of the work. A fixed quote follows.

  1. Every washroom is checked joint by joint, with loose panels, leaks or damp noted for the right trade.
  2. A phasing plan keeps part of the building’s facilities in use at all times.
  3. Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
  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. Rooms reopen after the product’s cure time, and we move to the next.

What we need from you

  • Point out parking and an unloading spot
  • Point out any areas we must not close
  • Make sure the joints can be reached
