Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Mid Lavant

In a commercial washroom, sealant is typically the first thing to wear out. Basin tops, urinal backs, panel joints and shower trays put it under water, chemicals and daily cleaning, and once mould grows into it, it can’t be scrubbed out. We strip it out and lay new anti-mould sanitary silicone. Site teams most often ask us about kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean and shower tray joints that have opened up, on kitchens and tea points, accessible toilets and changing rooms and vanity units and basins. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Mid Lavant? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.

Community buildings around smaller places like Mid Lavant have kitchens and toilets used by many people. Fresh anti-mould sanitary silicone at sinks, worktops and toilets keeps them cleanable.

We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

For managing agents and facilities managers

Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients book us directly too. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.

If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.

How the quote is worked out

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

  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • Quantities, in metres or numbers
  • Which sealant the job calls for
  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation

Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.

What we need to price the job

A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. It helps to include:

  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older
  • The type of building and who uses it
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • Any dates the work must fit around

Send us photographs, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.

When something else is needed

Honesty saves time and money. New sealant won’t cure:

  • Loose panels, vanity units or tiles, which need fixing first
  • Swollen or delaminated boards behind panels or vanity tops
  • Condensation from failed extract fans

If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think.

What we seal

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

Common problems we fix in Mid Lavant

Sometimes the sealant fails because something behind it is moving or wet: loose fixings, a dripping trap or damp in the wall. We look for it before resealing and tell you if another trade is needed.

Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:

  • Stained sealant around pans and urinals
  • Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
  • Sealant laid over old silicone and now peeling
  • Sealant stained black around basins and showers

Colleges such as West Dean College of Arts and Conservation, 2.4 miles to the north of Mid Lavant, have toilets, changing rooms and catering kitchens that can be resealed around term dates.

Questions to ask before you appoint anyone

Mid Lavant: questions and answers

Is Mid Lavant off your patch?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Would you work within a site like Nuffield Health Chichester Hospital?

Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.

Will cleaning remove black mould from sealant?

Surface cleaning won’t reach mould that has rooted into the bead. New anti-mould sanitary silicone is the treatment and point out if ventilation is part of the problem.

How many days will you need on site?

That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit normally takes a morning or so for a small washroom, longer where showers and changing rooms are included. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.

What do you charge?

Each job is quoted on its own details. To get one, call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.

Is any job too small?

Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Send details for a fixed quote.

Will you come and look before quoting?

That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.

How a job runs

When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, and the work usually takes a few hours for one toilet block, with bigger buildings phased across a number of visits. Rural sites near Mid Lavant may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we’ll build it into the plan.

  1. We inspect each washroom and record the joints to be resealed.
  2. The fixed quote sets out the rooms, the products and the phasing.
  3. Old sealant is removed completely and the faces cleaned.
  4. Each joint is cleaned and left dry.
  5. A sanitary silicone bead is laid and given a smooth tooled finish.
  6. Rooms reopen after the cure time.

Before we start on site

  • Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
  • Agree which areas must stay open
  • Confirm the product named in the specification

Related advice

Looking after the joints

For the best life from the joints:

  • Note failing joints building by building
  • Respect the cure time before reopening each room
  • Act on the first split you see at a shower tray
  • Inspect washroom sealant regularly

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.

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.
