Washroom sealing for Hastings Old Town sites

Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Why deal with it now?

Waiting for a holiday closure can leave failing joints in place for a long time. Phasing lets it happen now, with facilities kept in use. Over time, UV, weather and movement wear any sealant out. Replacing it before it fails keeps water out.

The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Why us?

  • 12 months’ guarantee on every job
  • Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
  • Constructionline member for supplier checks
  • Public liability insurance in place

How we handle washroom sealing in Hastings Old Town

Black spotting along a sealant bead is not a cleaning problem. The mould has rooted into the silicone itself so it returns whatever the cleaning regime. Replacing the bead is the lasting treatment. If you are dealing with resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed and sealant lifting along a tray edge, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Hastings Old Town, preparation and product choice get the time they need.

Around Hastings Old Town, washroom work typically comes one building at a time. A list and photos let us quote and plan so it’s done in one visit where possible.

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

Diagnose, treat, sign off

We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. Several jobs near Hastings Old Town can be grouped on one trip. Mention the building’s opening times and we’ll work within them.

  1. We agree which washrooms close and when.
  2. Anything behind the joints that needs another trade is flagged.
  3. Old sealant is stripped and the faces prepared.
  4. We reseal with the grade suited to each area.
  5. We confirm reopening times for each washroom.

What we need from you

  • For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
  • Point out any areas we must not close
  • Move anything stored against the joints

Work for main contractors and building owners

Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.

Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.

Maintenance after handover

After handover, these steps help:

  • Inspect washroom sealant regularly
  • Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
  • Leave signs up until the cure time is over
  • Report faulty extraction promptly

We hand each area back once the silicone has had the cure time the product needs. We’ll tell you when the wet areas can be used, and it helps if signs stay up until then.

Boards behind panels and vanity tops can swell when water gets past a failed joint. Once that happens, a reseal won’t fix them.

Wet areas in Hastings Old Town’s workplaces

Hastings Old Town lies within about 1 mile of the sea, and coastal hotels, guest houses and holiday sites tend to fill up in the busy months. Washrooms used guest after guest wear their sanitary silicone faster, and the quieter months are the natural time to reseal. Hastings Old Town has eight care or nursing homes no more than 2 miles away. Assisted bathrooms and wet rooms in care settings need sanitary sealant that stays cleanable. Rooms are done a few at a time at times agreed with the home.

Hotels such as Chatsworth Hotel, 0.7 miles west of Hastings Old Town, have en suite bathrooms where tired silicone at the bath, tray and basin is replaced room by room. For a site such as Conquest Hospital, 2.2 miles to the north-west of Hastings Old Town, sanitary joints in clinical areas need sound, cleanable sealant and a careful method.

Should maintenance staff do it?

Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.

General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.

What sets the cost

Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:

  • Which sealant the job calls for
  • How much there is to seal
  • How accessible the joints are
  • The size and state of each joint

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.

What we need to price the job

A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:

  • Access details, including height
  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area
  • The postcode of the building
  • Any specification or named product

Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we will put a fixed quote together. To get it moving, call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
