Coloured sealant in Broadstairs, done properly
Window, door and shopfront frames in RAL finishes often need a sealant to suit. The frame colour is checked against the sealant’s standard range. If the range has no close colour, a paintable sealant can sometimes be overpainted, where the specification allows. We work on shop-fit joinery and counters, office fit-out finishes and hotel bathrooms and public areas, and what we’re called in for most is marked sealant in hotel bathrooms and white or grey sealant that clashes with the finish. Searching for sealant specialists in Broadstairs? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
A town such as Broadstairs normally has a high street, some business units, schools and a surgery or two. Shopfronts, kitchens, washrooms and frames all have sealant that ages, and where a frontage is on show, a matched colour keeps it looking right.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we are clear about what is covered before work starts.

What we’re called out for in Broadstairs
On some projects the colour was never agreed. The joint may work perfectly but look out of place.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Old sealant that has yellowed, darkened or faded
- White or grey sealant that clashes with the finish
- Colour changes after a rebrand or refit
- Poorly tooled joints on visible finishes
A unit on an estate like Northdown Industrial Estate, 0.6 miles north-west of Broadstairs, usually has an office front, a trade counter and staff facilities with joints of their own.

Surface by surface
Paintable sealants
Some joints are better sealed with a paintable product and decorated. It depends on movement and the specification, as paint can crack on a moving joint.
Powder-coated and anodised frames
Anodised and metallic frames rarely have an identical sealant colour. We will suggest the nearest standard colours.
Frontages, fit-outs and joints in Broadstairs
With the shore within about 1 mile, Broadstairs counts as a coastal location. Exposed frontages near the sea are hard on sealant, so the product has to suit the weather as well as the look. A matched colour is only half the brief on an exposed frontage. At about 66 miles from central London, Broadstairs is within reach of the capital. The South East around the capital has large numbers of business parks, offices and retail centres, especially around the motorway corridors. If you have premises across the region, one contractor can cover them all.
Occupiers with premises at both Northdown Industrial Estate and Oakwood Industrial Estate could have the sealant at each handled under one quote. For premises near Broadstairs station, less than half a mile to the south-east of Broadstairs, footfall is part of the plan: work is phased so shops and offices keep trading.
Broadstairs is about 16 miles east of Canterbury, in Kent. Across the CT10 postcode area, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Broadstairs is one of 931 places in Kent on our list. We also cover London, around 66 miles from Broadstairs.

How a job runs
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. If you have more than one building in Broadstairs, they can often be done on the same visit, with one quote covering them. Give us your access times and we will fit the work in.
- The sealant type is chosen for the joint first, then the colour.
- We compare your RAL reference or sample with the colours made for that sealant.
- Where colour is critical, a sample bead can be agreed in a discreet spot.
- We take out the existing bead, clean the joints and fit backing.
- We apply the agreed colour and tool it neatly, with masking where the finish needs it.
What we need from you
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
Quotes
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.

Cost factors for colour-matched joints
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Access and working height
- The total length or number of joints
- Which sealant the job calls for
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.
Details that help us quote
The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- The type of building and who uses it
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- The site address and postcode
Need a figure for a tender or a budget? Send the scope and any drawings, and we’ll return a fixed quote you can plan around. If you have questions first, call 01277 525 020 or email us.
Broadstairs: questions and answers
Must a hotel around Broadstairs close while you work?
Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.
Will you take on work at estates like Northdown Industrial Estate, close to Broadstairs?
Yes, sites like Northdown Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Broadstairs. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is coloured sealant weaker than white?
Performance comes from the sealant type and the installation. The joint gets the product it needs, in a colour from that product’s range with the same preparation and backing.
Do you work in Broadstairs?
Yes. We cover Broadstairs, and the simplest way to start is to speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
Can we approve the colour on site?
Yes. Tell us who approves colour and we’ll plan the sample into the programme so sign-off doesn’t hold up the work.
What do you charge?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. With photographs or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
How long does a job like this take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. You’ll have an expected duration with the quote.
When to bring in a specialist
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
