Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Newnham Murren

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. There is public liability insurance behind every job. Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. If you’re dealing with failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen and urinal joints that look unhygienic, we can put it right, on showers, trays and wet room floors, kitchens and tea points and accessible toilets and changing rooms alike. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Newnham Murren tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.

Halls and community buildings near places like Newnham Murren are used by different groups through the week, and their toilets and kitchens show it. Fresh anti-mould sanitary silicone at sinks, worktops and toilets keeps them cleanable.

What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

How the quote is worked out

We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:

  • Any access equipment needed
  • Which sealant the job calls for
  • Phasing around occupants
  • Removal of failed or old sealant

The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.

Before you send an enquiry

Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Let us know:

  • The postcode of the building
  • Any dates the work must fit around
  • Any specification or named product
  • Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available

Pricing a project or setting a maintenance budget? Send the scope and any drawings, and we’ll return a fixed quote you can plan around. If you have questions first, phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.

From enquiry to sign-off

We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. If others near Newnham Murren need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  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. Joints are degreased and dried.
  5. A sanitary silicone bead is laid and given a smooth tooled finish.
  6. Each area is handed back when ready.

Getting the site ready

  • Share the asbestos register for older buildings
  • Warn occupants and staff about the work
  • Confirm the product named in the specification

A good quote starts with a clear picture: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

Newnham Murren: questions and answers

Is Newnham Murren too small for you to travel to?

No. Places such as Newnham Murren are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Will our hotel in Newnham Murren need to close for the work?

Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. The plan is built around your bookings.

How long before the toilets can reopen?

That varies with the sealant and the room temperature. Each room gets its own reopening time from us before we leave it.

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?

Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators.

Can washrooms stay open while you work?

The work is phased so there are always facilities open. We work through the building a room or section at a time around your site hours and access windows.

How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?

Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.

What site paperwork can you supply?

Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.

After the work

Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:

  • Keep washrooms out of use until we say the sealant has cured
  • Include joints in routine washroom inspections
  • Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
  • 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.

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 reseal when you first spot a split.

Do you need washroom sealing in Newnham Murren?

Sometimes the sealant fails because something behind it is moving or wet: a loose panel, a leaking waste or water coming through the wall. We look for it before resealing and say if it needs a plumber or another trade.

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

  • Open joints at the base of cubicle panels
  • Stained sealant around pans and urinals
  • Failed sealant behind washroom basins
  • A new bead over an old one coming away

Units at estates like Hithercroft Industrial Estate, 1 mile west of Newnham Murren, have welfare blocks whose showers and toilets see shift after shift.

Work for main contractors and building owners

Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.

As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. We’re fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.

Why act early in Newnham Murren

Water gets behind panels and under floors through a failed joint. In a commercial building that can mean damaged boards, stained ceilings on the floor below and odours, and fixing that takes far more work than resealing. Older rural buildings around Newnham Murren move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.

What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.
