Why it’s worth doing now in Thundersley
Sealing on top of old silicone saves nothing. Silicone won’t grip silicone, so it lifts and holds moisture underneath. Cutting out completely and cleaning back takes a little longer and lasts. In a town such as Thundersley, a lot of buildings are older and have been altered over time, so joints between old and new are often the first to go. Renewing them before water gets in protects the fabric.
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
Why clients in Thundersley choose us
- Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available
- Specification-led, product-correct work

Quoting for work in Thundersley
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- How accessible the joints are
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Working within restricted access windows
- How much there is to seal
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.
What we need to price the job
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- Any specification or named product
- The type of building and who uses it
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. The first step is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with what you know.
Our process
We follow your site rules from the start: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. With the paperwork done, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you, and each area is checked before we leave it. Town-centre premises in Thundersley may have limited parking, so tell us what’s nearby. On estates and business parks it’s normally simpler.
- Every washroom is checked joint by joint, with loose panels, leaks or damp noted for the right trade.
- We agree which rooms close and when, so users always have somewhere to go.
- The failed silicone is stripped and every face scraped clean of residue.
- Joints are cleaned, degreased and dried before sealing.
- A bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone goes in and is tooled to a smooth, cleanable profile.
- You get a reopening time for every room, with signage left up until then.
What we need from you
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Point out any areas we must not close

Busy facilities in and around Thundersley
At about 29 miles from central London, Thundersley is within reach of the capital. Office washrooms on business parks see heavy weekday use, so we phase work to keep some facilities open.
For a hall at a building such as Church of St Peter, resealing the kitchen and toilets can be fitted between bookings. At a school such as Thundersley Primary School, changing rooms and kitchens need cleanable joints as much as the toilets.

When to call us in Thundersley
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 check for that first and tell you if another trade is needed.
Look out for the following:
- Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
- Sealant stained black around basins and showers
- A new bead over an old one coming away
- Stained sealant around pans and urinals
Welfare facilities in units on estates such as Manor Trading Estate, 0.7 miles north-west of Thundersley, have showers, toilets and kitchens with sealant that works hard.

Looking after the joints
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Respect the cure time before reopening each room
- Don’t leave trays and floors sitting wet
- Keep extract fans working and vents clear
- Act on the first split you see at a shower tray
Ventilation is half the battle. Constant damp lets mould take hold even on anti-mould grades, so get faulty extract looked at.
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.
Questions we are asked in Thundersley
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Chartwell Private Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Could you schedule work at a campus like South Essex College Stephenson Road Campus for the vacation?
Yes. Education sites typically want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Who decides which product is used?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Will cleaning remove black mould from sealant?
Not for long. The mould is inside the silicone so cleaning only lightens it for a while. Replacing the bead is the lasting answer.
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, and signs stay up until then.
How long do sealant joints last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
