Should maintenance staff do it?
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
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.
Do you need washroom sealing in Hogpits Bottom?
A lot of failed washroom sealant was laid over an old bead or a dirty surface. Silicone won’t adhere to a silicone bead, so it soon lets go.
Look out for the following:
- Complaints from staff, guests or users about tired washrooms
- Open joints along basins and vanity units
- Stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops
- Split or peeling sealant at shower trays
Office washrooms on sites such as Boughton Business Park, 2.9 miles to the south-west of Hogpits Bottom, are in use all working day, so resealing is phased to keep some open.
Before you book anyone
- How joint depth will be controlled
- Who will actually carry out the work
- How they’ll work around occupants
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
After the work
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Mention any site permits or estates rules at quote stage
- Inspect washroom sealant regularly
- Make sure washroom ventilation is running
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
Ventilation is half the battle. Constant damp lets mould take hold even on anti-mould grades, so get faulty extract looked at.
Leaks through tray and wet-floor joints can go unseen until a ceiling marks below. By then, other trades may be needed as well so failed joints are worth acting on quickly.
From enquiry to sign-off
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. Smaller jobs around Hogpits Bottom can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- We agree which washrooms close and when.
- Anything behind the joints that needs another trade is flagged.
- Failed sealant and residue are stripped out.
- The right sanitary or food-safe sealant is applied.
- We give you a reopening time for every room.
Before we start on site
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
