Coloured sealant in Boxted Cross, done properly
Natural materials vary across a single elevation: a stone or brick facade shifts in tone from one area to the next. The aim is a sealant colour that sits comfortably against the whole surface, with a sample on site if colour is critical. If you are dealing with sealant that no longer suits recoated frames and untidy coloured beads with ragged edges, we can help, on shop-fit joinery and counters, office fit-out finishes and hotel bathrooms and public areas alike. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Boxted Cross first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Commercial sealant work around smaller places like Boxted Cross tends to mean pubs and restaurants, halls, farm shops and offices in converted farm buildings. Kitchens, toilets and window frames in all of them need resealing sooner or later.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Your questions answered
Will you take on work at estates like Langham Barns Business Centre, close to Boxted Cross?
Yes, sites like Langham Barns Business Centre are within our area, along with the rest of Boxted Cross. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is Boxted Cross too far out for you?
Not at all. Boxted Cross is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
What will the job cost?
It depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a quote.
Who decides which product is used?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
Can you match any colour exactly?
No. An exact bespoke match isn’t something we can promise. We’ll show you the closest colours in the specified product’s range so you can choose.
Will the colour fade over time?
Exposed sealant can change in appearance over the years. Sunlight, dirt and weathering affect how it looks, and resealing brings the look back.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.

Advice
What sets the cost
Before we quote, we look at:
- Any access equipment needed
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Travel to remote or island sites
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.
Sending details for a quote
Good information means a firmer quote. Helpful details to send:
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- The site address and postcode
- The product your specification calls for
Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. To take the first step, ring 01277 525 020 or email us.
Owners, agents and contractors
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm them with the quote.
Why act early in Boxted Cross
Resealing a full run gives a consistent colour. Piecemeal repairs over several years tend to drift in colour, so a planned reseal often looks better value. Older rural buildings around Boxted Cross move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.

What the job involves on each surface
Paintable sealants
Some joints are better sealed with a paintable product and decorated. That only works where the joint and specification allow it, as paint can crack on a moving joint.
Office fit-outs
In offices, sealant appears at partitions, tea points, washrooms and reception desks. Colour-matched joints keep the finish consistent across floors at handover.
Looking after the joints
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Record the product and colour reference on the building file
- Standardise colours across a portfolio
- Approve a sample bead on high-profile areas
- Keep harsh solvents away from visible joints
If other trades disturb a coloured joint, ask them to tell you rather than patch it. Wrong-colour patches are obvious, undoing the look you paid for.
Share the colour reference with anyone working on the finishes. That keeps new work in line with what’s there.
