Questions about Ridgeway

Can you work on a hospital site such as William Harvey Hospital (Ashford)?

Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.

Will the toilets in our Ridgeway building be out of use?

Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. We’ll tell you the curing time for the product before we start.

Does weather matter for sealant work?

For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.

Do you do washroom sealing in healthcare settings?

We do. Your infection-control rules, estates requirements and permits are followed. The work is phased around patients or residents.

Can washrooms stay open while you work?

Only the area we’re working in is closed. Each room reopens after the sealant’s cure time, then we move on.

Do you use special sealant for toilets and showers?

Sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives in the majority of cases. We use neutral-cure versions on stone, some metals and near mirrors.

Can one quote cover more than one building?

Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, with each site phased to suit its occupants.

Washroom sealing for commercial buildings in Ridgeway

Closing all the facilities in a building isn’t an option. Work is phased by room or by section, so there are always facilities in use. Give us your site hours and access windows and the phasing is planned around them. We work on vanity units and basins, kitchens and tea points and accessible toilets and changing rooms, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops and sealant stained black around basins and showers. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Ridgeway is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

Halls and community buildings near places like Ridgeway are used by different groups through the week, and their toilets and kitchens show it. Resealing sinks, worktops and WCs with anti-mould silicone keeps them clean and watertight.

Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Ridgeway as everywhere else we work. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Commercial washrooms in Ridgeway

Central London is about 53 miles from Ridgeway. Office toilets in the commuter belt are in use from first arrivals to last departures, so we work a block of facilities at a time.

If you manage an office at a site such as Evegate Business Park, 0.7 miles to the south of Ridgeway, the washrooms and tea points can be done a floor at a time. For a hall at a building such as Church of St Mary, resealing the kitchen and toilets can be fitted between bookings.

Ridgeway is about 4 miles east of Ashford, in Kent. Our applicators travel to Ridgeway for work on washrooms and wet areas. We work across 931 places in Kent, from busy centres to rural villages. For work in that direction, see our Brighton page, about 51 miles away.

Postcode districts covered here: TN25 for washrooms and wet areas. Just outside Ridgeway, we also work in Smeeth (1 mile east), Brabourne Lees (1 mile east), Lilyvale (1 mile east), Bircholt Forstal (1 mile north-east) and Mersham (1 mile west). Further afield, our area takes in Ashford (4 miles west), Canterbury (12 miles north-east), Dover (15 miles east), Folkestone (9 miles east), Faversham (14 miles north) and Hythe (6 miles south-east).

Leave it or put it right?

Bleaching black sealant may lighten it for a few days but the growth is inside the bead and returns. A full reseal deals with it and cleaners stop fighting a losing battle. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Ridgeway. Send photos of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.

A quote for washrooms and wet areas depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.

What you get with us

  • Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available
  • One number for every site we cover
  • CSCS-carded applicators
  • 12 months’ guarantee on every job

What we’re called out for in Ridgeway

Panels and vanity units move slightly in use, and shower trays shift under foot. If the joint wasn’t laid to take that movement, it tears or peels away.

Things that usually lead to an enquiry:

  • Stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops
  • Failed sealant behind washroom basins
  • A new bead over an old one coming away
  • Panel joints letting water behind

For a site such as William Harvey Hospital (Ashford), 2.3 miles to the north-west of Ridgeway, sanitary joints in clinical areas need sound, cleanable sealant and a careful method.

What your quote should include

  • How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
  • Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
  • Their approach to joint depth and backing
  • How they handle RAMS and site documents

How to choose a sealant contractor

What sets the cost

Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:

  • The total length or number of joints
  • Travel to remote or island sites
  • Site requirements such as inductions and permits
  • Whether old sealant has to be cut out first

What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.

What we need to price the job

A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:

  • Any dates the work must fit around
  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older
  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area

Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.

Surface by surface

Kitchens and tea points

In commercial kitchens, smooth, cleanable joints help keep the kitchen hygienic. Food-safe sealants are used where food may touch the joint.

Urinals and WC pans

Urinal backs, troughs and slab joints are resealed with sanitary silicone once the whole of the old bead has gone.

Commercial clients in Ridgeway

If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.

Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.

From enquiry to sign-off

Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint, ready for your sign-off. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. For a building around Ridgeway, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.

  1. Every washroom is checked joint by joint, with loose panels, leaks or damp noted for the right trade.
  2. The phasing is agreed so there are always facilities open.
  3. The failed silicone is stripped and every face scraped clean of residue.
  4. Joints are cleaned, degreased and dried before sealing.
  5. We lay a sanitary silicone bead and tool it smooth so it is easy to clean.
  6. Each room is handed back once the sealant has had its cure time.

Getting the site ready

  • Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
  • Warn occupants and staff about the work
  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Getting a fixed quote

Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
