About our washroom sealing in Ulting

Facilities managers, contractors and building owners have used us for washroom sealing for over 20 years. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member. There is public liability insurance behind every job. Every resealed washroom carries our 12-month guarantee. Site teams most often ask us about panel joints letting water behind and a new bead over an old one coming away, on accessible toilets and changing rooms, kitchens and tea points and urinals and WCs. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Ulting it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

Smaller places such as Ulting still have commercial washrooms and kitchens: in halls, pubs, schools, care homes and farm-based businesses. Mould gets into sealant in any washroom that doesn’t dry out, and once it’s in, the sealant is replaced.

Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll arrange a return visit.

Aftercare for building managers

Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:

  • Keep a record of which washrooms need attention
  • Tell us about infection-control or permit rules before we quote
  • Keep washrooms out of use until we say the sealant has cured
  • Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone

Ventilation is half the battle. A room that stays damp will grow mould on almost anything so report fans that aren’t working to your building services team.

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.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, with the work itself typically taking a morning or so for a small washroom, longer where showers and changing rooms are included. Rural sites near Ulting may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we’ll build it into the plan.

  1. We inspect each washroom and record the joints to be resealed.
  2. You get a fixed quote with the phasing plan.
  3. The whole of the old bead is removed.
  4. Joints are degreased and dried.
  5. New anti-mould sealant goes in and is tooled neat.
  6. Each area is handed back when ready.

Getting the site ready

  • Send any specification or drawings in advance
  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
  • Make sure the joints can be reached

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

Advice

How the job changes by surface

Changing rooms and gyms

Changing rooms can be phased so one stays open. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.

Wet-room floors and floor-to-wall joints

Wet floors are common in accessible showers and changing rooms so the edges are checked carefully.

What we’re called out for in Ulting

Occasionally a joint keeps failing because of a problem behind it: loose fixings, a dripping trap or damp in the wall. We check for that first and say if it needs a plumber or another trade.

Look out for the following:

  • Kitchen worktop joints that can’t be kept clean
  • Split or peeling sealant at shower trays
  • Gaps where vanity tops meet the wall
  • A new bead over an old one coming away

Halls linked to places like Church of All Saints host groups all week, which is hard on kitchen and toilet sealant.

What to look for in a quote

  • Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
  • How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
  • Proof of insurance
  • Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?

Choosing a commercial sealant contractor

When something else is needed

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

  • Leaks through tanking or membranes below the finishes
  • Condensation from failed extract fans
  • Vanity carcasses that have swollen

If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we seal

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

Work for main contractors and building owners

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, plus a 12-month guarantee.

Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.

FAQs: Ulting

Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Priory Hospital?

Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.

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

Not all at once. We take one block of facilities at a time. Each area is handed back once the sealant has cured enough to use.

Can you follow the specification on our project?

Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it.

Do you have public liability insurance?

Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.

Is there a guarantee on the work?

Every job carries our 12-month guarantee. It applies to our workmanship, not to plumbing leaks or damp from poor ventilation.

Is old silicone taken out first?

We always remove it. Fresh silicone can’t key to an old bead so a bead over the top fails quickly.

How long do sealant joints last?

It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
