About our commercial sealant in Staple Tye

Student halls, care homes and supported housing have many similar bathrooms. A room-by-room programme keeps the job organised, fitting around residents and staff. We work on retail & leisure sites, student & care accommodation and rental portfolios, and the jobs we see most are too many rooms to reseal without closing the building and leaking joints in shower rooms and changing areas.

If you run a pub, café, guest house or shop in or near Staple Tye, the washrooms and kitchen need the same attention as a big site.

Every job is covered by a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

What happens if it’s left?

Before an inspection, audit or busy season, sealant is easy to overlook. Planning the work ahead means rooms are finished and cured in time. Homes in smaller places like Staple Tye can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.

What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can be quoted together.

What we’re called out for in Staple Tye

Wet rooms and accessible showers are designed for the whole floor to get wet, so the joints at floor level are under water often. Any split there can let water through quickly.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • Washrooms that need sorting before an inspection
  • Mouldy washroom sealant that staff and guests notice
  • Large numbers of bathrooms needing the same work
  • Failed floor-level joints in accessible wet rooms

For landlords with property near Harlow Town station, we can quote for one property or a whole portfolio of rentals.

What your quote should include

  • What guarantee comes with the work
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not
  • What product goes in the joint

10 questions to ask before you book

The process

There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes a morning for a small washroom, and a planned programme for bigger sites, including the tidy-up. Parking around Staple Tye is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. We start with a site walk to agree the rooms and the timing.
  2. Every area is sheeted and the old silicone stripped out.
  3. Joints are cleaned, treated for mould and dried.
  4. Anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes into wet areas, with suitable sealants elsewhere.
  5. We check every room and give its cure time for housekeeping.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Leaking pipework, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Fire risk assessments or certification
  • Extraction that isn’t working, which needs an electrician or ventilation contractor

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Can I do it myself?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Workplaces and buildings in Staple Tye

Staple Tye is part of Harlow, one of the post-war new towns. Like the other new towns, Harlow was planned with its own areas for industry and business, so workplaces sit close to the homes. Their washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints need the same upkeep as anywhere. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

Community buildings like St James with St Luke are part of the picture too: any kitchen and washrooms need the same sealant care as any other building. Managing a site like Stewards Academy - Science Specialist? Then washroom and kitchen sealant can be programmed around term times or opening hours.

Looking after it afterwards

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Log resealing so you know what’s due
  • Include the silicone on your room checklists
  • Encourage users to squeegee shower walls
  • Pass on the cure time to whoever cleans the rooms

Make it easy for staff to flag a failing joint. A small gap caught quickly is a short fix, and if anything looks wrong, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

A room that can’t be let or used is lost income. Small sealant faults caught early can be fixed between bookings or tenancies, before they become leaks that take the room out of use.
