For managing agents and facilities managers

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

Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Herstmonceux

Facilities managers, contractors and building owners have used us for washroom sealing for over 20 years. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member. We are fully insured. Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. We work on vanity units and basins, IPS panels and cubicles and kitchens and tea points, and what we are called in for most is sealant lifting along a tray edge and gaps where vanity tops meet the wall. Most enquiries from Herstmonceux start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.

Halls and community buildings near places like Herstmonceux are used by different groups through the week, and their toilets and kitchens show it. Resealing sinks, worktops and WCs with anti-mould silicone keeps them clean and watertight.

Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, wherever the site is. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Different surfaces, different methods

Kitchens and tea points

In commercial kitchens, smooth, cleanable joints help keep the kitchen hygienic. Food-safe sealants are used where food may touch the joint.

Healthcare and care settings

Clinics, hospitals and care homes need joints that can be kept clean. Your infection-control and estates rules are followed and any permits the site uses.

Quoting for work in Herstmonceux

Quotes vary with the job. Expect it to depend on:

  • Which sealant the job calls for
  • Any access equipment needed
  • Phasing around occupants
  • Joint width, depth and condition

Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Before you send an enquiry

For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:

  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
  • Your programme or deadline
  • Access details, including height
  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule

A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.

Your questions answered

Is hospital work, at somewhere like Amberstone Hospital, something you do?

Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.

Do we have to close all our washrooms in Herstmonceux for resealing?

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.

Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?

Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.

Will cleaning remove black mould from sealant?

Typically not. Mould grows into the sealant itself, so it comes back however often it’s cleaned. Replacement is the lasting fix.

What guarantee comes with washroom resealing?

There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we carry public liability insurance.

Do you phase washroom resealing?

Only the area we are working in is closed. Each room reopens after the sealant’s cure time, then we move on.

What will the job cost?

Every job gets its own fixed quote. For yours, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with a description of the work.

Looking after the joints

Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:

  • Keep extract fans working and vents clear
  • Squeegee showers and trays after busy periods
  • Inspect washroom sealant regularly
  • Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray

Squeegeeing showers and trays after heavy use helps. Joints that sit wet for hours fail sooner.

Small numbers of failed joints are quick to phase in. Left until every washroom is affected, it becomes a bigger programme with more phasing to plan.

Sanitary sealant for Herstmonceux buildings

At about 46 miles from central London, Herstmonceux is within reach of the capital, in a commuter belt where offices and business parks are common. Office toilets in the commuter belt are in use from first arrivals to last departures, and resealing in phases keeps facilities available.

Healthcare estates like Amberstone Hospital, 2 miles west of Herstmonceux, expect contractors to follow their permits and cleaning rules in every washroom. At a school such as Herstmonceux Church of England Primary School, changing rooms and kitchens need cleanable joints as much as the toilets.

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. Halls, stores and units around places like Herstmonceux may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Resealing early avoids that.

The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote.
