Tell us what records you need and we’ll confirm with the quote.

Leave it or put it right?

Water gets behind panels and under floors through a failed joint. That can lead to swollen boards, marked ceilings below and lingering smells which costs more to fix than a reseal. Converted and older buildings near places like Great Braxted tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.

The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

Questions about Great Braxted

Will the toilets in our Great Braxted building be out of use?

Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. We will tell you the curing time for the product before we start.

What documents will you need to give us for a job in Great Braxted?

RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we will confirm it with the quote. We hold £5m public liability insurance, are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and our applicators are CSCS-carded.

Do you offer coloured sealant?

It depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we will confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.

What do you charge?

It depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a quote and we’ll price it properly.

Can washrooms stay open while you work?

We phase it 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.

How long do sealant joints last?

There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.

When can showers be used after new sealant?

The silicone needs time to cure before water reaches it. Phasing is planned with the cure time in mind so facilities are never short.

After the work

To get the most from the new sealant:

  • Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
  • Add sealant joints to planned maintenance checks
  • Clean sealant with gentle products and a soft cloth
  • Tell us about infection-control or permit rules before we quote

Include sealant joints in your planned maintenance checks. Look for black spotting, cracks, peeling edges and gaps at the busiest fittings and photograph anything new.

Leaks through tray and wet-floor joints can go unseen until a ceiling marks below. At that stage, boards or ceilings may need repair, so reseal when you first spot a split.

When something else is needed

Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:

  • Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
  • Leaking pipes, traps, wastes or cisterns, which need a plumber
  • Hollow tiles or loose panels behind the joint

Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.

Where we work in Great Braxted

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

Different surfaces, different methods

Changing rooms and gyms

Gym and leisure changing rooms see showers running most of the day, so mould is a constant battle. Anti-mould sanitary silicone is the standard choice.

Urinals and WC pans

Urinal backs, troughs and slab joints are resealed with sanitary silicone once the whole of the old bead has gone.

General trades versus a specialist

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.

Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. For work around Great Braxted, we aim to finish in one visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.

  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.

What we need from you

  • Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
  • Share the asbestos register for older buildings
  • Send any specification or drawings in advance
