Landlords, agents and businesses in Start Hill

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

How it works

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. It usually takes a few hours per area, with larger sites planned over several visits. In a small place like Start Hill, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We agree a programme with you: which rooms, in what order, at what times.
  2. We go through your site’s paperwork needs, such as RAMS, before work begins.
  3. Old sealant is cut out room by room and joints cleaned and treated.
  4. Anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes into wet areas, with suitable sealant elsewhere.
  5. Each finished area is checked with you and given a cure time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice

What the job involves on each surface

Office washrooms & kitchens

In staff kitchens, we degrease joints before resealing, with a food-safe product beside sinks where needed.

Retail & leisure sites

Customer washrooms are part of the impression a business makes, and fresh sealant makes them look well kept.

Should I try it myself first?

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.

Leave it or put it right?

Patching the worst rooms as complaints come in is hard to manage. A planned programme deals with every room in order, with less disruption and one clear quote. In a small place like Start Hill, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

Aftercare tips

A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:

  • Don’t leave a failed joint until the next refurbishment
  • Log resealing so you know what’s due
  • Encourage users to squeegee shower walls
  • Plan resealing around quiet periods

Extract fans need to work. In internal bathrooms, a weak or broken fan lets moisture linger, and that is what keeps mould away.

Planned resealing is easier to manage than emergency repairs. Rooms can be scheduled around occupancy and staff, rather than closed at short notice.

Start Hill: your questions answered

Do you cover smaller places like Start Hill?

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.

Do you work in hotels near Start Hill?

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 you reseal bathrooms across several rental properties?

Yes. A planned programme across a portfolio keeps things simple.

Can you supply method statements and risk assessments?

Tell us what your site asks contractors for. We will confirm what we can provide alongside the quote.

How long do rooms need to be out of use?

Most areas can be used after around 24 hours. We give a cure time for each area.

Where are you based?

We’re a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Should I try DIY first?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

Does someone need to be in?

For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.

When something else is needed

We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Poor ventilation that keeps bringing mould back
  • A shower tray, bath or basin that’s cracked or broken
  • Certifying fire stopping or building compliance

If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.
