About our coloured sealant in Cooling
On a finished interior or a high-quality elevation, the sealant is part of the look. Our coloured sealant work blends joints into the surrounding materials, from powder-coated frames to stone and brick. The right product for the joint always comes first, then the colour. We work on shop-fit joinery and counters, cladding panels and office fit-out finishes, and the failures we are asked to look at most are sealant that no longer suits recoated frames and smeared sealant on stone or joinery. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Cooling it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Business units in the countryside around places like Cooling are often converted barns, stables or farmyards. Old masonry beside new aluminium, timber and plasterboard gives plenty of joints between materials that move differently, and a sealant colour that suits the building’s character is often part of the brief.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Why deal with it now?
Standard white or grey sealant is cheaper to stock, but it doesn’t always suit the finish. Where joints are on show, choosing a better colour is typically worth it at handover. Converted and older buildings near places like Cooling tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.

Our process
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself typically takes a day for a modest shop fit, and longer for a full building or several floors, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. If others near Cooling need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- We confirm the product the joint needs before talking about 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.
Before we start on site
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need

- The site’s rules and procedures
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Whether the work must be split into stages
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

We can often quote from photos and a few details. Please tell us:
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Specification clauses that apply
- The type of building and who uses it

How the job changes by surface
Cladding panels
Panel joints form a grid on the facade, so colour matters. We pick a facade-grade sealant in a shade that sits with the panels.
Shop-fit and joinery finishes
Retail fit-outs mix many finishes in a small space. Each joint gets a colour that suits the materials it sits between as agreed with the designer.
Common questions from Cooling clients
Do you offer colour-matched sealant for buildings in Cooling?
Yes. Colour matching to frames, cladding, stone and shop-fit finishes is a regular part of the work. Available colours for the product are confirmed with the quote.
Is Cooling too far out for you?
Not at all. Cooling is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.
Can you fit around our working hours?
We’re in the office from 8am until 5pm, Monday to Friday. Let us know your site hours and access windows, and the work will be planned around them.
Who decides which product is used?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
How long does a typical visit take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. You’ll have an expected duration with the quote.
When it isn’t the sealant
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Paint over sealant on joints that move too much
- Colour variation across natural stone or brick that no single shade can match
- A colour that never alters with age
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Natural stone and brick
- Cladding panels
- Office fit-out finishes
- Powder-coated and anodised frames
- Shop-fit joinery and counters
- Hotel bathrooms and public areas
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Coloured sealant around Cooling: what changes locally
Cooling is within about 3 miles of the coast. Buildings near the sea put their external joints through more driven rain, with salt air nearer the beach. We choose a product rated for the exposure, then confirm the colours available for it. Rainfall across the South East, Cooling included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. That helps, but frost and condensation on glass and coated frames still stop outside sealing on some winter mornings.
A lasting commercial joint around Cooling begins with the old bead fully out and the faces clean and dry. Premises within reach of Higham station, 3.3 miles south-west of Cooling, often have busy frontages where joints are seen by everyone passing.
