Let us know about stairs, lifts or shared entrances too.
- We start with a site walk to agree the rooms and the timing.
- Each area is protected and the old sealant cut out completely.
- The joints are degreased, treated and left to dry.

Advice
Commercial sealant in Maidstone
Commercial work is planned around the building, not the other way round. We can work room by room, floor by floor or in batches, and early starts or out-of-hours working can be arranged. If you have leaks from showers into rooms or ceilings below and whole floors of tired en suites, we can help, on hotel bathrooms, office washrooms & kitchens and rental portfolios alike.
A place the size of Maidstone has offices, shops, hotels and schools, each with its own washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints to look after. We cover both day-to-day sealant and fire-rated sealant, installed to the manufacturer’s tested details.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.
Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Don’t leave a failed joint until the next refurbishment
- Ask cleaners to go gently on the silicone
- Report broken fans quickly
- Note the date each area was done
Daily cleaning with harsh chemicals shortens the life of any sealant. A mild cleaner and a soft cloth is enough for the joints.
Black sealant in a staff washroom or guest bathroom draws complaints. The longer it’s left, the deeper it grows into the silicone, so the fix is replacement.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Maidstone
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
When something else is needed
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before any work starts. Sealant will not put right:
- A shower tray, bath or basin that is cracked or broken
- A broken extractor fan behind the mould problem
- Faulty shower valves and leaking traps
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What else we do in Maidstone
DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
What commercial sealant looks like in Maidstone
Maidstone has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you let a flat or house near Maidstone West station, we can quote for one property or a whole portfolio of rentals. Schools such as South Borough Primary School are buildings too, and washroom and kitchen sealant can be programmed around term times or opening hours.

Signs you need commercial sealant in Maidstone
Heavy use means more movement: different weights, constant use and daily cleaning all work at the joint. If a tray flexes, the sealant around it splits.
The most common problems we see are:
- Joints that need doing before an inspection or audit
- Large numbers of bathrooms needing the same work
- Split sealant around staff kitchen worktops and sinks
- Washroom sealant that looks dirty however often it’s cleaned
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Philip's Church, its kitchen and washroom sealant needs looking after like anywhere else.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- How long to leave it before use
- Whether VAT is included
Your questions about commercial sealant in Maidstone
Is Maidstone in your area for commercial sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Maidstone is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Maidstone?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
What information do you need?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few photos.
Can you supply method statements and risk assessments?
Let us know which documents your site needs, such as method statements, risk assessments or insurance details, and we will confirm what we can provide when we quote.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we’re fully insured.
Can you match the sealant colour?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The product needed can limit the range.
Why deal with it now?
Sealing over the old bead can seem the fastest option, but it won’t bond, and it lifts again soon. Doing it properly once is less disruptive than doing it badly twice. For landlords in Maidstone, failed sealant soon turns into tenant complaints about mould, damp or draughts. It’s simpler to sort between tenants than in the middle of a let.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
