- Silicone laid over old silicone by a previous contractor
- Leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas
- Rental bathrooms that need resealing between tenants
Do you need commercial sealant in Hawkenbury?
Commercial bathrooms get far more use than domestic ones, and they’re cleaned with strong products every day. So the silicone ages faster than it would at home.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Silicone laid over old silicone by a previous contractor
- Washrooms that need sorting before an inspection
- Too many rooms to reseal without closing the building
- Leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas
Around Hawkenbury, as everywhere, commercial sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee
- Is VAT in the price?
- Who turns up on the day
- When the joint can take water or movement
How we handle commercial sealant in Hawkenbury
Wet areas get anti-fungal sanitary silicone, and kitchens get a food-safe product where it’s needed. Products include Arbo and Everbuild sealants, chosen to suit each joint. Common call-outs are for mouldy washroom sealant that staff and guests notice and leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas, on rental portfolios, welfare facilities and hotel bathrooms.
In a village or hamlet like Hawkenbury, commercial work is more likely to be a pub, a farm shop, holiday lets or a village hall than an office block. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

How the job changes by surface
Rental portfolios
An empty property is easy to reseal, so the next tenant moves in to clean, sound joints.
Student & care accommodation
Vacant rooms make resealing quick and simple, but occupied rooms can be planned in as well.
Your questions about commercial sealant in Hawkenbury
I let a flat near Staplehurst station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Hawkenbury within the area you cover?
Yes, Hawkenbury is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
How long does commercial sealant take?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes as long as the scope needs, from one welfare room to a full building. We will give you a better idea when we quote.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Can the hotel stay open while you work?
Yes. Rooms are done a few at a time, so only a few are out of use at once. Housekeeping are told when each room can be let again.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Can you work outside opening hours?
It can be arranged. The hours are agreed before work starts.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.

What commercial sealant looks like in Hawkenbury
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

What affects the cost of commercial sealant
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The number and length of the joints
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How many areas need sealing
The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- The problem you’ve noticed

What else we do in Hawkenbury
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep strong chemicals and scourers off the joints
- Report broken fans quickly
- Put a squeegee in each shower
- Keep a record of which rooms were resealed and when
A squeegee in each shower is a simple help: walls and trays dry faster, and so does the sealant.
A room that can’t be let or used is lost income. Small sealant faults caught early can be fixed between bookings or tenancies, instead of turning into a leak that closes the room.
DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
How the visit works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a few hours for a single washroom, longer for a whole building, depending on how much there is to do. In a small place like Hawkenbury, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Tell us the rooms, hours and site rules, and we will plan the programme.
- Tell us what paperwork your site needs, and we confirm what we can supply before we start.
- Old sealant is cut out room by room and joints cleaned and treated.
- We reseal with the right product for each joint.
- Each finished area is checked with you and given a cure time.
Getting ready for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
Getting a quote
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll take it from there.
