Washroom sealing in Sholing

Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.

Your questions answered

Can work at a site such as Solent University fit around teaching?

Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.

Is a smaller place like Sholing outside your area?

No. Places such as Sholing are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Can you reseal washrooms in healthcare buildings?

We do. We work to your estates and infection-control requirements and any site permits. The work is phased around patients or residents.

What do you charge?

We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. Send photographs or drawings and we will price it at a fixed figure.

Do you hold CHAS accreditation?

Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.

Is it possible to just clean mouldy silicone?

Usually not. The mould is inside the silicone, so it comes back however often it’s cleaned. Replacing the bead is the lasting answer.

Is any job too small?

Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.

Washroom sealing around Sholing: points for this area

Sholing sits close to the coast, within about 2 miles, and seaside hospitality normally has a peak season that works washrooms hard. Washrooms used guest after guest wear their sanitary silicone faster, and the quieter months are the natural time to reseal. Sholing has a good number of hotels close by, all within 2 miles. En suite bathrooms, staff changing rooms and kitchens all need their sanitary silicone renewed in time. The work can go floor by floor, agreed with housekeeping.

Clinical washrooms at sites like Royal South Hants Hospital, 2 miles to the north-west of Sholing, are scheduled with the ward so the room is out of use for as little time as possible. If you manage an office at a site such as Bitterne Business Centre, 1.6 miles to the north-west of Sholing, the washrooms and tea points can be done a floor at a time. At a college such as Itchen College, 0.6 miles to the north of Sholing, washroom and kitchen sealant is best renewed in the holidays or in phases during term.

Sholing is about 2 miles south-east of Southampton, in Southampton. Commercial clients in Sholing can call on us for washrooms and wet areas. 30 places across Southampton fall within our area, Sholing among them.

Keeping the joints sound

A few simple habits keep the new joints working:

  • Keep a record of which washrooms need attention
  • Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
  • Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone
  • Leave signs up until the cure time is over

Ask your cleaning team to use gentle products and soft cloths on sealant. Aggressive descalers, solvents and scouring pads shorten its life and give mould a start.

A few failed joints can be resealed with hardly any disruption. Left, it tends to become a building-wide job with more phasing to plan.

Our process

The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Sholing need work too, visits can be combined. Mention the building’s opening times and we will work within them.

  1. We survey each room, count the joints and note anything behind them that needs another trade.
  2. We agree which rooms close and when, so users always have somewhere to go.
  3. Failed silicone is removed completely and the surfaces cleaned of every trace.
  4. Joints are cleaned, degreased and dried before sealing.
  5. New sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives goes in and is tooled neat.
  6. Rooms reopen after the product’s cure time, and we move to the next.

Preparing the site

  • Confirm the product named in the specification
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot
  • Share your working hours and any access restrictions

Ask for a quote

If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.

Advice

What happens if it’s left?

Leaving the job until a shutdown often means living with it for months. Phasing lets it happen now, with facilities kept in use. In a smaller place such as Sholing, getting a contractor back for a second visit takes time, so it’s worth dealing with every failing joint at once.

Pricing washrooms and wet areas depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.

When something else is needed

Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:

  • Fittings that move too much to hold a bead
  • Water from plumbing, not from a joint
  • Mould caused by poor ventilation, which will return until the extract is fixed

Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.

What we seal

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

How the job changes by surface

IPS and cubicle panels

Panels flex slightly in use so the bead needs to cope with it. Loose panels are flagged before any sealant goes on.

Urinals and WC pans

Floor joints around WC pans are often forgotten. They are checked with everything else.
