When to call us in Shalford
Occasionally a joint keeps failing because of a problem behind it: a loose panel, a leaking waste or water coming through the wall. We check for that first and tell you if another trade is needed.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Black mould inside silicone joints that cleaning can’t shift
- Failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen
- Discoloured joints around urinals and WC pans
- Open joints along basins and vanity units
At a hospital like Mount Alvernia Hospital, 1.6 miles to the north of Shalford, patient and staff washrooms are best done in short phases agreed with the ward.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?

Maintenance after handover
Regular inspection catches problems early. In particular:
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
- Keep extract fans working and vents clear
- Respect the cure time before reopening each room
Add washroom sealant to routine inspections. Check for mould spots, splits, lifting edges and open joints at trays, basins and urinals and photograph anything new.
Small numbers of failed joints are quick to phase in. Left until every washroom is affected, it becomes a bigger programme with more phasing to plan.

What the job involves on each surface
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.
Urinals and WC pans
Floor joints around WC pans are often forgotten. They are checked with everything else.
FAQs: Shalford
Will our hotel in Shalford need to close for the work?
Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. Housekeeping and our team agree each day’s rooms.
Can you work in a care home near Shalford with residents in?
Yes. Care settings are planned area by area, at times agreed with the home. Noise and disruption are kept to a minimum.
Do you work in hospitals, clinics and care homes?
Yes, healthcare and care settings are part of our work. Any records you need are confirmed with the quote before we start.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
It depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
How do you choose the sealant?
The specification comes first, if there is one. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Does the weather affect the work?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Internal work is rarely affected.
What sets the cost
Each job is priced on its own details. The things that drive the figure:
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- How much existing material needs removing
- Travel to remote or island sites
- How accessible the joints are
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
Sending details for a quote
However big the job, the same details help:
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Specification clauses that apply
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- The postcode of the building
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
