Building owners, agents and FMs in Little Horkesley
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Little Horkesley can form part of a wider programme across Essex.
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
Washroom sealing in Little Horkesley, done properly
Closing all the facilities in a building isn’t an option. We phase the work one washroom, one bank of cubicles or one changing room at a time, so staff, guests or pupils always have somewhere to go. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. If you’re dealing with washrooms that look worn because of the sealant and resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed, we can put it right, whatever the surface. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Little Horkesley first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Community buildings around smaller places like Little Horkesley have kitchens and toilets used by many people. Fresh anti-mould sanitary silicone at sinks, worktops and toilets keeps them cleanable.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

After the work
For the best life from the joints:
- Include joints in routine washroom inspections
- Keep extract fans working and vents clear
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
- Squeegee showers and trays after busy periods
Keep extract fans working and vents clear. A room that stays damp will grow mould on almost anything, so get faulty extract looked at.
In food areas, cleanability is something environmental health officers look at. Resealing sinks, worktops and splashbacks before an inspection is a simple step.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
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.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.

Advice
What we’re called out for in Little Horkesley
A lot of failed washroom sealant was laid over an old bead or a dirty surface. New silicone won’t grip the old, so it soon lets go.
Most enquiries start with something like this:
- A new bead over an old one coming away
- Split or peeling sealant at shower trays
- Open joints along basins and vanity units
- Washrooms that look worn because of the sealant
Where you are responsible for a hall attached to a building such as Church of St Peter and St Paul, its kitchen and toilets need sealant that stays cleanable.
