Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.

Common questions from Tudeley clients

Will our hotel in Tudeley need to close for the work?

Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.

Is hospital work, at somewhere like Tonbridge Cottage Hospital, something you do?

Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.

Will you quote for a small job?

Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Photos and a description are enough to start.

What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?

Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.

How many days will you need on site?

We plan the time on site around your programme and access. You will have an expected duration with the quote.

Do you use special sealant for toilets and showers?

It depends on the joint. Most washroom joints take sanitary silicone, and food areas take a hygienic, food-safe sealant where food contact is possible.

How we handle washroom sealing in Tudeley

Whether it’s a single toilet block in Tudeley or a programme across several buildings, the route is the same: details first, then a fixed quote, then the work, then the 12-month guarantee. A few photographs and a count of fittings are enough for a quick quote, or we can arrange a visit. Most enquiries involve stained or open joints at kitchen sinks and worktops and sealant lifting along a tray edge, across kitchens and tea points, vanity units and basins and accessible toilets and changing rooms. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Tudeley, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.

Halls and community buildings near places like Tudeley 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.

Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Toilets, showers and kitchens around Tudeley

Tudeley lies roughly 28 miles out from central London, in a commuter belt where offices and business parks are common. Business park offices have washrooms in daily use by staff, so we phase work to keep some facilities open. Tudeley has several hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Behind every hotel door there’s a bathroom whose sealant will need renewing sooner or later. The work can go floor by floor, agreed with housekeeping.

Staff changing rooms and patient toilets at places like Tonbridge Cottage Hospital (to the west of Tudeley) need cleanable, sound silicone. Church halls and community buildings, such as those at Church of All Saints, have kitchens and toilets used by many groups, and their sanitary sealant works hard. At a college such as West Kent College, 2.2 miles west of Tudeley, washroom and kitchen sealant is best renewed in the holidays or in phases during term.

Tudeley is about 2 miles south-east of Tonbridge, in Kent. We cover commercial sites throughout Tudeley, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. We work across 931 places in Kent. For work in that direction, see our London page (28 miles or so).

Work on washrooms and wet areas is covered throughout TN11, for business premises of every kind. If your building is just outside Tudeley, we cover Tudeley Hale (1 mile north-east), Crockhurst Street (1 mile south-east), Capel (1 mile south-east), Five Oak Green (2 miles east) and Colt's Hill (2 miles south-east). Bigger towns within reach include Maidstone (11 miles north-east), Sevenoaks (9 miles north-west), Royal Tunbridge Wells (4 miles south-west), Kings Hill (7 miles north-east), Foley Park (11 miles north-east) and Paddock Wood (3 miles east).

When to bring in a specialist

The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.

Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

What sets the cost

A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:

  • The size and state of each joint
  • Whether the work must be split into stages
  • The site’s rules and procedures
  • Any access equipment needed

Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.

Sending details for a quote

It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:

  • Specification clauses that apply
  • Whether an asbestos survey exists
  • What the building is and how it’s used
  • Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available

For a fixed quote, phone 01277 525 020 or email us with the site address and an outline of the work. Our quote form is another easy route.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. If others near Tudeley need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. Every room is surveyed and the failed joints listed.
  2. The fixed quote sets out the rooms, the products and the phasing.
  3. Old sealant is removed completely and the faces cleaned.
  4. Each joint is cleaned and left dry.
  5. A sanitary silicone bead is laid and given a smooth tooled finish.
  6. Each area is handed back when ready.

What we need from you

  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use
  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot

Get a fixed quote

Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.

What the job involves on each surface

Showers and trays

Shower trays move under foot and are wet all day. Tray joints are where many washroom leaks start.

Urinals and WC pans

Urinal backs, troughs and slab joints are resealed with sanitary silicone after the old bead and residue are removed.

Aftercare for building managers

Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:

  • Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
  • Mention any site permits or estates rules at quote stage
  • Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone
  • Keep extract fans working and vents clear

We hand each area back once the silicone has had the cure time the product needs. You’ll be told when showers and basins can be used again, and it helps if signs stay up until then.

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.

What we can’t put right

We check first that sealant really is the fix. It won’t put right:

  • Water from plumbing, not from a joint
  • Condensation from failed extract fans
  • Fittings that move too much to hold a bead

If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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