How we handle commercial sealant in Selsted
Guest bathrooms are cleaned every day and used by different people every night, so sealant there has a hard life. We work through rooms in batches, keeping most rooms available, with a cure time for each room so housekeeping know when to release it. Typical jobs include repeated reseals that don’t last and split sealant around staff kitchen worktops and sinks, across welfare facilities, retail & leisure sites and hotel bathrooms.
In a village or hamlet like Selsted, 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.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Selsted: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Shepherds Well station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Will you come out to Selsted?
Yes. Selsted is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Can you reseal every bathroom in a hotel?
Yes. With more than 20 years’ experience and over 2,847 projects behind us, we plan big jobs so the building keeps running.
Does commercial work come with a guarantee?
Yes. We’re fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and give a one-year guarantee on every job.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
When can guests or staff use the shower again?
Most areas can be used after around 24 hours. Each room is handed back with the cure time for the product used.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we’ll quote it together.
For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
How it works
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours for a single washroom, longer for a whole building for a typical job. In a small place like Selsted, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We agree a programme with you: which rooms, in what order, at what times.
- 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.
- Rooms are handed back in order, each with its cure time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

What the job involves on each surface
Student & care accommodation
Halls and care homes often have many near-identical bathrooms. A room-by-room programme keeps the job efficient.
Hotel bathrooms
Guest bathrooms are resealed room by room or in batches, keeping most of the hotel open. Housekeeping get a cure time for each room.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re 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 fails, we can still redo it.
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.

What affects the cost of commercial sealant
You’ll get a clear quote before we start. It takes into account:
- The number and length of the joints
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How many areas need sealing
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- A few photos by email, if you can
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- If someone has resealed it before
- The type of property
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Book larger programmes for quieter times of year
- Encourage users to squeegee shower walls
- Add sealant to your planned maintenance checks
- Tell cleaning staff when each room can be used
Include sealant in routine room inspections. Checking joints alongside other room checks catches failures before they leak.
Signs to look for: 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.
