West Cliffe: questions and answers
Can you work on a hospital site such as Royal Victoria Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as East Kent College?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Can you reseal washrooms in healthcare buildings?
Yes. We work to your estates and infection-control requirements and any site permits, and phase the work so areas keep facilities.
What guarantee comes with washroom resealing?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we carry public liability insurance.
Will cleaning remove black mould from sealant?
Usually not. Mould grows into the sealant itself, so it comes back however often it’s cleaned. Replacing the bead is the lasting answer.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.
How we handle washroom sealing in West Cliffe
Closing all the facilities in a building isn’t an option. Work is phased by room or by section, so staff, guests or pupils always have somewhere to go. Give us your site hours and access windows and the phasing is planned around them. If you are dealing with a new bead over an old one coming away and mould spotting along silicone joints, we can help, whatever the surface. Whoever orders the work in West Cliffe, the brief is usually the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
In and around smaller places like West Cliffe, washroom work is often in halls, pubs, primary schools, care homes and holiday accommodation. Mould gets into sealant in any washroom that doesn’t dry out, and once it’s in, the sealant is replaced.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Busy facilities in and around West Cliffe
West Cliffe lies within about 1 mile of the sea, and coastal places often have hotels, guest houses and holiday accommodation with busy seasons. Showers and en suites in constant use are where silicone moulds and splits first, so we plan the work for quieter weeks where possible. A 2-mile radius around West Cliffe takes in a number of hotels. 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.
Church halls and community buildings, such as those at Church of St Peter, have kitchens and toilets used by many groups, and their sanitary sealant works hard. Hotels such as St. Margaret's Bay Hotel, less than half a mile to the south-east of West Cliffe, have en suite bathrooms where tired silicone at the bath, tray and basin is replaced room by room.

What the job involves on each surface
Basins and vanity tops
Vanity tops and basins are splashed all day, so the wall joint and bowl surrounds tend to fail before anything else. We remove the old bead and lay a fresh one of sanitary silicone.
Showers and trays
If a tray moves too much or is cracked, it needs attention first and we flag that beforehand.
Owners, agents and contractors
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative.
Leave it or put it right?
Gaps and mould in joints give dirt and bacteria somewhere to sit which matters most in healthcare, food and education settings. A smooth, sealed joint can be cleaned properly. For buildings around smaller places like West Cliffe, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
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 we’ll put a fixed figure on it.

The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Phasing around occupants
- Any access equipment needed
A quote for washrooms and wet areas depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you are working to. Call for a quote.
What we need to price the job
To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Any specification or named product
- The postcode of the building
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.

When to call us in West Cliffe
Daily commercial cleaning wears sealant faster than people expect. Harsh products, abrasive pads and pressure washing break down a joint’s surface and edges, and dirt and mould then get a foothold.
Look out for the following:
- Stained sealant around pans and urinals
- Gaps where vanity tops meet the wall
- Failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen
- Mould spotting along silicone joints
Clinical washrooms at sites like Royal Victoria Hospital (2.8 miles south-west of West Cliffe) are scheduled with the ward so the room is out of use for as little time as possible.
Questions to ask before you book
- Their public liability cover
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
Diagnose, treat, sign off
On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Everything around the joints gets protected 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. Jobs in and around smaller places like West Cliffe 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.
- We agree which washrooms close and when.
- Leaks, loose panels or damp are pointed out first.
- Failed sealant and residue are stripped out.
- The right sanitary or food-safe sealant is applied.
- We confirm reopening times for each washroom.
What we need from you
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Make sure the joints can be reached
