Busy facilities in and around Rake
Rake lies roughly 45 miles out from central London, within the office belt around the capital. Office toilets in the commuter belt are in use from first arrivals to last departures, so we phase work to keep some facilities open. There are a number of hotels within about 2 miles of Rake. Each has en suites, back-of-house toilets and kitchens with sealant that moulds and splits. The work can go floor by floor, agreed with housekeeping.
For a site such as Chase Community Hospital, 4.2 miles north of Rake, sanitary joints in clinical areas need sound, cleanable sealant and a careful method. Office washrooms on sites such as Ham Barn Business Park (2.3 miles north-west of Rake) are in use all working day, so resealing is phased to keep some open. Halls linked to places like Rake Mission Church host groups all week, which is hard on kitchen and toilet sealant.

Washroom sealing in Rake, done properly
When mould has spotted a silicone joint, more cleaning won’t remove it. The growth is inside the sealant so it returns whatever the cleaning regime. Replacing the bead is the lasting treatment. If you have resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed and stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops, we can put it right, on accessible toilets and changing rooms, showers, trays and wet room floors and vanity units and basins alike. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Rake 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.
Smaller places such as Rake still have commercial washrooms and kitchens: in halls, pubs, schools, care homes and farm-based businesses. Mould gets into sealant in any washroom that doesn’t dry out, and once it’s in, the sealant is replaced.
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.

Our process
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Jobs in and around smaller places like Rake are normally planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We start by inspecting the fittings and joints and flagging problems sealant can’t solve.
- The phasing is agreed so there are always facilities open.
- We strip out the old bead and clean off the residue left behind.
- Joints are cleaned, degreased and dried before sealing.
- We lay a sanitary silicone bead and tool it smooth so it is easy to clean.
- You get a reopening time for every room, with signage left up until then.
Preparing the site
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need
Ask for a quote
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we’ll put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
Advice
Owners, agents and contractors
Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites around Rake. One quote can cover more than one site, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
Whether you are a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
Doing it in-house
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Cost factors for washrooms and wet areas
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Any access equipment needed
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Sending details for a quote
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Let us know:
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- The product your specification calls for
A handful of photographs and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Send them through the quote form, or ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over if you’d rather talk the job through.
Rake: questions and answers
Is a smaller place like Rake outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Chase Community Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
How long does a typical visit take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. You will have an expected duration with the quote.
What guarantee comes with washroom resealing?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we carry public liability insurance.
Do you work in hospitals, clinics and care homes?
Yes, healthcare and care settings are part of our work. Tell us what records you need and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Is old silicone taken out first?
The failed bead is always removed. New silicone won’t stick to the old, so sealing over it soon peels.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Different surfaces, different methods
Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints
Sealant at a wet-room floor edge is not a substitute for the waterproofing underneath, and we will say if the trouble looks to be beneath the floor.
Healthcare and care settings
Clinics, hospitals and care homes need joints that can be kept clean. Your infection-control and estates rules are followed as well as site permits.
Maintenance after handover
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Photograph and log failed joints across the estate
- Keep extract fans working and vents clear
- Add sealant joints to planned maintenance checks
- Respect the cure time before reopening each room
Each room goes back into use only when the sealant has cured enough. You’ll be told when showers and basins can be used again, and it helps if signs stay up until then.
Leaks through tray and wet-floor joints can go unseen until a ceiling marks below. At that stage, boards or ceilings may need repair, so reseal when you first spot a split.
