How we handle commercial sealant in Bockhanger
With over 20 years in sealant work, we’re a fully insured, ARBOMaster approved team. Tell us what paperwork your site needs, such as RAMS or insurance details, and we’ll confirm what we can provide. Common call-outs are for worktop sealant that has shrunk and stained and split sealant where wet room floors meet walls, across office washrooms & kitchens, hotel bathrooms and retail & leisure sites.
For a pub, café, guest house or shop in or near Bockhanger, the washrooms and kitchen need the same attention as a big site, and fire-rated sealant around service openings should be restored after new pipes or cables go through.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

What happens if it’s left?
Guests and staff judge a building by its bathrooms. Mouldy silicone looks unhygienic, however hard housekeeping work, and cleaning rarely puts it right. Replacing it does. In an older home around Bockhanger, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Questions from Bockhanger
Do you take on hotel work around Bockhanger?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Is Bockhanger within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Let us know what needs doing and where, with pictures by email if possible. We will ask anything else we need to know.
When can guests or staff use the shower again?
Generally after around 24 hours. We give a cure time for each area.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. More than one area can be quoted together.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Commercial buildings in Bockhanger
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings. Bockhanger has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. For hotels, a room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
For buildings such as Church of St Mary, halls and community kitchens see heavy use, and their sealant shows it. Schools such as Phoenix Community Primary School are buildings too, and washroom and kitchen sealant can be programmed around term times or opening hours.

What happens on the day
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take as long as the scope needs, from one welfare room to a full building.

- The first visit is a look round the site to agree the scope.
- Working hours are agreed, including early starts or out-of-hours work where it can be arranged.
- Areas are protected and the failed sealant removed.
- Once dry, every joint is resealed and tooled.
- Housekeeping or site staff are told when each area can be used.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Common problems we fix in Bockhanger
Internal washrooms and en suites without a window rely entirely on extraction, and where extraction is poor, damp hangs around. That’s when black mould sets into the bead.
Look out for these signs:
- Failed joints in office kitchens and tea points
- Mouldy washroom sealant that staff and guests notice
- Too many rooms to reseal without closing the building
- Repeated reseals that do not last
If you let a flat or house near Ashford International station, we can quote for one property or a whole portfolio of rentals.
What your quote should include
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- What the cure time is
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Note the date each area was done
- Pass on the cure time to whoever cleans the rooms
- Leave squeegees in busy showers
- Ask cleaners to go gently on the silicone
Extract fans need to work. In internal bathrooms, a weak or broken fan lets moisture linger, and mould comes back faster without it.
Water from a failed shower seal can travel: through floors, into ceilings and across into corridors. Dealing with the joint early stops that spread.
What the job involves on each surface
Retail & leisure sites
Shops, gyms, leisure centres and restaurants all have joints that need sealing. We can plan around opening hours.
Rental portfolios
An empty property is easy to reseal, so the next tenant moves in to clean, sound joints.
