On site: what to expect
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. Smaller jobs around Broxted can be grouped with others nearby. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- First we agree which sealant type the joint needs.
- We compare the target colour with the colours available.
- The nearest colour is agreed, with a sample bead where needed.
- We cut out the existing bead, clean and set the depth.
- Edges are masked and the coloured sealant applied and tooled.
- Masking comes off and the work is checked with you.
What we need from you
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
Quotes
Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule and a fixed quote comes back to you. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a site visit.
Related advice
Keeping the joints sound
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Approve a sample bead on high-profile areas
- Use one colour standard across multi-site work
- Note which sealant colour was used where
- Agree the sealant colour early and write it into the specification
Note the sealant type and colour on the building file. Future repairs can then use the same colour, avoiding a patchwork.
Settle the colour early in the project. When colour is left to the last minute, it is often wrong.
Commercial clients in Broxted
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.

What happens if it’s left?
People notice sealant lines more than you might expect, especially in shop fits and hotels. Putting it right costs little compared with the finishes around it. Halls, stores and units around places like Broxted may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.

Cost factors for colour-matched joints
Before we quote, we look at:
- The total length or number of joints
- Any access equipment needed
- Distance, for remote addresses
- How much existing material needs removing
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
What we need to price the job
We can often quote from photos and a few details. It helps to include:
- When you need the work done
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
Broxted: questions and answers
Can you work at a site such as Williams Field Business Centre, by Broxted?
Yes. Our area takes in Broxted and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Williams Field Business Centre included. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Is Broxted off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. 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 follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
Is any job too small?
Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Send details for a fixed quote.
Does the colour affect how the joint performs?
The product type decides performance, not the colour. The joint gets the product it needs, in a colour from that product’s range.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Common problems we fix in Broxted
Joints repaired piecemeal often end up in several shades. Mixed repairs over time leave a run of mismatched joints along a shopfront. Doing the full run in a single colour solves it.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Failed coloured sealant that has split or peeled
- Discoloured joints on a visible elevation
- Untidy coloured beads with ragged edges
- Stained or mouldy coloured joints in washrooms
If you run an office at a site such as Williams Field Business Centre, which lies south-west of Broxted, the sealant at reception desks, tea points and frames ages with each fit-out.
