About our coloured sealant in Bedlar's Green
A colour-matched bead still has to work as a seal. Each joint is cleaned, backed to depth and tooled firmly onto both faces, with no shortcuts because it’s decorative. Clean masking and steady tooling give the sharp lines colour work needs. We work on powder-coated and anodised frames, natural stone and brick and office fit-out finishes, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are white or grey sealant that clashes with the finish and poorly tooled joints on visible finishes. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Bedlar's Green it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
In and around smaller places such as Bedlar's Green, the commercial buildings we’re asked about are often pubs, shops, village halls and barns converted to offices. Each has kitchens, washrooms and frames whose joints need renewing in time.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Aftercare for building managers
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Approve a sample bead on high-profile areas
- Settle the colour with the designer at the start
- Don’t let trades patch coloured joints with a random sealant
- Note which sealant colour was used where
Clean coloured joints with mild, non-abrasive products. Strong solvents and abrasive pads can dull or mark the surface over time.
Include coloured joints in a planned maintenance cycle. Replacing them on a schedule keeps finishes looking right over the years.
Questions we’re asked in Bedlar's Green
Does a hotel in Bedlar's Green need to shut while its sealant is renewed?
Rarely. Rooms or floors are done in turn, so the rest of the hotel keeps trading. The plan is built around your bookings.
Is Bedlar's Green off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Can you send site paperwork?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Do you take on colour-matched sealant for shop fits and multi-site roll-outs?
Yes. We work with shop fitters, hotel groups and office fit-out contractors. Our area takes in Greater London, the South East and Scotland, so one colour reference can carry across every site.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
How the quote is worked out
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- How much there is to seal
- Access and working height
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Before you send an enquiry
There’s no need for a formal survey. These details are enough to start:
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- Any specification or named product
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- What the building is and how it’s used
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a site visit.
Should maintenance staff do it?
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.

Where the site stays busy, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed before the next one starts. If others near Bedlar's Green need work, visits can be combined. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.

What we’re called out for in Bedlar's Green
Patch repairs in a different colour are a common problem. Mixed repairs over time leave a run of mismatched joints across one elevation. Doing the full run in a single colour solves it.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Weathered sealant that no longer matches
- Stained or mouldy coloured joints in washrooms
- Patch repairs in several different colours
- A bead that fights the cladding or frame colour
If you have premises on more than one site, say at Peek Business Centre and Woodside Industrial Estate, one contractor and one quote can cover both.

Stone facades and stone interiors vary widely. Colour is agreed on site where possible before the full run.
Powder-coated and anodised frames
Anodised and metallic frames rarely have an identical sealant colour. We show you the closest options in the product’s range so you can choose.
