About our washroom sealing in Way

In a commercial washroom, sealant is typically the first thing to wear out. Around basins, urinals, cubicles, IPS panels and shower trays it takes water, soap, cleaning chemicals and knocks every day and mould that roots into it can’t be cleaned away. The fix is to remove it completely and reseal with sanitary silicone containing anti-mould additives. We work on vanity units and basins, urinals and WCs and showers, trays and wet room floors, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are users noticing mouldy joints and panel joints letting water behind. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Way from the first photos to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.

Smaller places such as Way 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.

Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

When something else is needed

Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:

  • Panel boards already damaged by water
  • Leaks through tanking or membranes below the finishes
  • Hollow tiles or loose panels behind the joint

If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we seal

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

Keeping the joints sound

Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:

  • Report faulty extraction promptly
  • Leave signs up until the cure time is over
  • Report split joints at trays and basins early
  • Photograph and log failed joints across the estate

Where possible, have shower floors and trays squeegeed after busy periods. Standing water on a joint all day shortens its life.

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.

Sanitary sealant for Way buildings

Way lies within about 3 miles of the sea, and coastal places often have hotels, guest houses and holiday accommodation with busy seasons. Heavy seasonal use is hard on shower and basin sealant, which is why off-season resealing makes sense. The 2 miles around Way include two care or nursing homes. In care settings, wet rooms, assisted bathrooms and en suites rely on clean, sound sealant. Each room is kept out of use only as long as the sealant needs.

Staff changing rooms and patient toilets at places like Ramsgate General Hospital, 3.5 miles east of Way, need cleanable, sound silicone. For buildings on a site such as The Oaks Business Park, 0.8 miles north-west of Way, washrooms and tea points can be resealed in phases through the working week. Halls linked to places like Church of Saint Mary the Virgin host groups all week, which is hard on kitchen and toilet sealant.

Way is about 3 miles west of Ramsgate, in Kent. Commercial clients in Way can call on us for washrooms and wet areas, as part of our coverage of Kent. We work across 931 places in Kent, large and small. Sites around London have their own page, about 62 miles away.

How the job changes by surface

Changing rooms and gyms

Showers, floor edges and vanity units in changing rooms all need sound sealant and we look at them as one job.

IPS and cubicle panels

IPS panels and cubicle systems have joints at the wall, the floor and the worktop. They stop water reaching the panel boards.

How the quote is worked out

Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:

  • Whether the work must be split into stages
  • Access and working height
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • Location, for remote and island sites

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.

What to include in your enquiry

A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:

  • How the joints are reached, and at what height
  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
  • The postcode of the building
  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area

Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

From enquiry to sign-off

We follow your site rules from the start: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. With the paperwork done, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact. Jobs in and around smaller places like Way are typically planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.

  1. We agree which washrooms close and when.
  2. Leaks, loose panels or damp are pointed out first.
  3. Old sealant is stripped and the faces prepared.
  4. The right sanitary or food-safe sealant is applied.
  5. We confirm reopening times for each washroom.

Before we start on site

  • Warn occupants and staff about the work
  • Make sure the joints can be reached
  • Let us know about inductions and permits

Request a quote

Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.

Can you work in a care home near Way with residents in?

Yes. We agree rooms and times with the manager and work a few areas at a time. Tell us about any infection-control or safeguarding requirements and we’ll work to them.

Is Way off your patch?

No. Places such as Way are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

What do you charge?

Each job is quoted on its own details. For yours, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over with a description of the work.

How do I request a quote?

It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photographs and a postcode.

What about RAMS and site documents?

Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.

Do you guarantee washroom sealing?

Every job carries our 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship rather than damage, leaks from plumbing or ventilation problems.

Can you reseal washrooms in healthcare buildings?

Yes. Your infection-control rules, estates requirements and permits are followed. The work is phased around patients or residents.

Building owners, agents and FMs in Way

Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first.

If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative.
