FAQs for Old Ford
Do you work in hotels near Old Ford?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Do you work for landlords with property near Hackney Wick station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you provide RAMS?
We are fully insured, and we’ll go through your site’s requirements with you. We will confirm what we can supply when we quote.
Do the sealants smell?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
How do I get a quote for commercial sealant in Old Ford?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before work begins.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.
Commercial sealant in Old Ford, done properly
Student halls, care homes and supported housing have many similar bathrooms. A room-by-room programme keeps the job organised, working around residents and staff routines. We work on hotel bathrooms, rental portfolios and student & care accommodation, and people most often call us about leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas and repeated reseals that don’t last.
London blocks of flats carry pipes and cables through walls and floors in their common parts and service risers. For managing agents and building owners in Old Ford, that can mean fire-rated sealant around service openings as well as resealing in shared washrooms and kitchens.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Signs you need commercial sealant in Old Ford
Plenty of commercial bathrooms have no window at all, so if the fan is weak, steam lingers and the sealant stays damp. Mould then takes hold in the silicone.
The most common problems we see are:
- Rental bathrooms that need resealing between tenants
- Water marks on ceilings under bathrooms
- Failed joints in office kitchens and tea points
- Washrooms that need sorting before an inspection
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Mulberry UTC, sealant in washrooms, kitchens and changing areas can be renewed around term times or opening hours.

Why it’s worth doing now in Old Ford
Sealant is easy to forget until an audit or inspection is due. Booking it in good time leaves room for the cure time before the visit, without a last-minute rush. In a flat in Old Ford, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.

What happens on the day
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes as long as the scope needs, from one welfare room to a full building and we leave things clean and tidy. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Old Ford. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.
- 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 any work starts.
- In each room, the old bead comes out and the joint is cleaned and treated.
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes into wet areas, with suitable sealant elsewhere.
- Rooms are handed back in order, each with its cure time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Include the silicone on your room checklists
- Check extract fans are actually running
- Encourage users to squeegee shower walls
- Keep strong chemicals and scourers off the joints
Make it easy for staff to flag a failing joint. A small gap caught quickly is a short fix.
Rooms out of use cost a hotel or landlord money. Catching faults early means they can be put right in a short window, instead of turning into a leak that closes the room.
What affects the quote in Old Ford
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- Access and height
- Any mould that needs treating
- The number and length of the joints
- The type of sealant required
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, please include:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- A few photos by email, if you can
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The type of property
Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
