Common questions from Ickham clients

Is a smaller place like Ickham outside your area?

No. Places such as Ickham are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Can work at a site such as Canterbury Christ Church University fit around teaching?

Yes. Education sites normally want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?

Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, as many construction sites ask for.

Can you follow the specification on our project?

Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we will price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.

Do you take on small jobs?

We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.

How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?

The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.

How long does a typical visit take?

It depends on the scope, though a typical visit normally takes between a morning and a week or so, set by the number of rooms and the phasing you need. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.

Washroom sealing in Ickham, done properly

Our washroom work covers offices, hotels, schools and colleges, leisure centres and gyms, clinics and care homes, plus the kitchens and tea points that go with them. The products and the method are chosen for how heavily each space is used. Most enquiries involve urinal joints that look unhygienic and stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops, on vanity units and basins, kitchens and tea points and urinals and WCs. Searching for sealant specialists in Ickham? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.

Farm shops, cafés and venues in converted rural buildings around places like Ickham have busy toilets and kitchens. We plan the work around bookings and opening times.

Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

What we are called out for in Ickham

Mop buckets, trolleys and knocks from users damage joints near the floor at skirting lines, urinal bases and around pans.

Most enquiries start with something like this:

  • Washrooms that look worn because of the sealant
  • Resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed
  • Split or peeling sealant at shower trays
  • Panel joints letting water behind

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

Comparing quotes

  • Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
  • The terms of the workmanship guarantee
  • How the existing material will be dealt with
  • Can the work be phased to keep areas open?

Questions to ask before you appoint anyone

After the work

For the best life from the joints:

  • Clear standing water from shower floors where possible
  • Act on the first split you see at a shower tray
  • Brief cleaning staff to treat joints gently
  • Keep washrooms out of use until we say the sealant has cured

Ventilation is half the battle. Constant damp lets mould take hold even on anti-mould grades so report fans that aren’t working to your building services team.

A split joint at a shower tray can leak for a long time before anyone sees it. By then, other trades may be needed as well, so reseal when you first spot a split.

Sanitary sealant for Ickham buildings

Central London is about 57 miles from Ickham. Washrooms in commuter-belt offices take constant weekday traffic, which is why the work is phased.

Healthcare estates like St Martins Hospital, 3.3 miles west of Ickham, expect contractors to follow their permits and cleaning rules in every washroom. Pupil toilets at schools like Wickhambreaux Church of England Primary School take heavy daily use, and the holidays give the window to reseal.

Ickham is about 4 miles east of Canterbury, in Kent. Businesses, contractors and managing agents in Ickham can call on us for washrooms and wet areas. Across Kent, 931 places are covered, including Ickham. We also cover London, some 57 miles away.

When it isn’t the sealant

Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:

  • Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed
  • Loose panels, vanity units or tiles, which need fixing first
  • Panel boards already damaged by water

If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

What affects the price in Ickham

A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:

  • Location, for remote and island sites
  • Whether the work must be split into stages
  • The total length or number of joints
  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation

What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a quote when you are ready.

Details that help us quote

For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:

  • Specification clauses that apply
  • Access details, including height
  • The asbestos register, for older buildings
  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To start the process, ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over.

Why it’s worth doing now in Ickham

Waiting for a holiday closure can leave failing joints in place for a long time. With phasing, the work can go ahead while most facilities stay open. Around Ickham, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.

No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

What you get with us

  • Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
  • One contact handling all your sites

From enquiry to sign-off

A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. Every room is surveyed and the failed joints listed.
  2. You get a fixed quote with the phasing plan.
  3. Old sealant is removed completely and the faces cleaned.
  4. Joints are degreased and dried.
  5. A sanitary silicone bead is laid and given a smooth tooled finish.
  6. Rooms reopen after the cure time.

Getting the site ready
