How to look after the new joints

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Put a squeegee in each shower
  • Report broken fans quickly
  • Check the joints during routine room inspections
  • Ask cleaners to go gently on the silicone

Each room is handed back with its cure time, which is normally around 24 hours. Pass it on to housekeeping or cleaners so the new sealant isn’t wetted or scrubbed too soon.

Watch for the warning signs: black spots in the silicone, corners lifting, staining on the ceiling below or a musty smell. When you see them, it’s time to plan a reseal.

Commercial sealant for homes and businesses in Preston

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. We work on retail & leisure sites, hotel bathrooms and rental portfolios, and people most often call us about washrooms that need sorting before an inspection and worktop sealant that has shrunk and stained.

Somewhere as small as Preston, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, holiday lets, farm buildings or halls rather than offices. They all have washrooms, kitchens and service openings that need the right sealant.

All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

DIY versus a professional finish

Not every job suits DIY: 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: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

What happens on the day

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself usually takes a few hours per area, with larger sites planned over several visits, depending on how much there is to do. Somewhere like Preston needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We agree a programme with you: which rooms, in what order, at what times.
  2. Tell us what paperwork your site needs, and we confirm what we can supply before we start.
  3. Old sealant is cut out room by room and joints cleaned and treated.
  4. We reseal with the right product for each joint.
  5. Rooms are handed back in order, each with its cure time.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Preston questions

Do you work for landlords with property near Adisham station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.

Do you cover smaller places like Preston?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Can you work outside opening hours?

That can be arranged for many jobs. We will confirm the working hours with your quote.

Do you provide RAMS?

Let us know your site’s requirements. We’ll confirm what we can provide alongside the quote.

Can new sealant go over the old?

No, it won’t last. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.

Will there be a smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Opening a window helps.

Do you offer different sealant colours?

Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we agree the colour with you before we start.

Common problems we fix in Preston

Plenty of commercial bathrooms have no window at all, and where extraction is poor, damp hangs around. That’s when black mould sets into the bead.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • Washrooms that need sorting before an inspection
  • Rental bathrooms that need resealing between tenants
  • Too many rooms to reseal without closing the building
  • Split sealant around staff kitchen worktops and sinks

Managing a site like Preston Primary School? Then busy washrooms and kitchens can be resealed in phases so they stay open.

What your quote should include

  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Whether you can choose the colour

Hotel bathrooms

We can plan around check-out and check-in times.

Retail & leisure sites

Changing areas and showers at leisure sites are wet all day, so joints are sealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

Commercial buildings in Preston

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.

Community buildings like Church of St Mildred are part of the picture too: halls and community kitchens see heavy use, and their sealant shows it. For landlords with property near Adisham station, several rental properties can be resealed on one programme.

When it isn’t the sealant

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:

  • Faulty shower valves and leaking traps
  • Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
  • Fire risk assessments or certification

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.

What we seal

  • Hotel bathrooms
  • Office washrooms & kitchens
  • Student & care accommodation
  • Welfare facilities
  • Rental portfolios
  • Retail & leisure sites

What affects the cost of commercial sealant

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size of the job
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • Which sealant suits the joint

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Asking for a quote

When you contact us, these details help:

  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • Where the property is
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs

Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job and send photos if you have them.
